Do you have a patio or outdoor area that is affected by weather? The answer may be a Ziptrak awning. Ziptrak awnings are a vertical awning where the fabric is held in place by tracks on the sides. Ziptrak’s are great for outdoor areas as they can give you protection from the sun and rain when you need it and roll away neatly when not required.
The main benefit of Ziptrak is that fabric is held in place with specially designed tracks. These tracks allow the fabric to be held in neatly place so the the fabric does not blow out the sides. This is a major advantage over other systems where over time the fabric can become stretched and unsightly from being blown out of the tracks. Ziptrak is also wind rated to 120 KPH which is more than double the wind rating of our main competitor. The tracks on the side also allow for the perfect amount of tension to be applied to the awning so that it looks great when fully extended.
The operation of Ziptrak are also extremely easy. The most popular way to operate a Ziptrak is to simply manually slide it up and down. Ziptrak’s come with a balanced spring which allows the blind to stop at any position. When the blind is fully down it is locked into position and can be easily released by the handle on the bottom rail.
Ziptrak can also be motorised, which makes them even easier to use by way of a remote control. To operate the Awning all the user has to do is either push up or down on the remote control. There is also a stop button which allows the awning to be stopped in any position. With a motorised Ziptrak, predetermined limits are put in place so the Awning will stop in the same position at the top and the bottom each time. This takes away any chance of the blind being damaged by being overwound.
