Outdoor blinds that make the patio usable all year
Outdoor blinds turn a verandah or pergola into a space you can use more of the year. Mesh cuts glare and heat while keeping the view. Clear PVC keeps out wind and rain in the cooler months.
Why choose them
Outdoor blinds at a glance
For windy spots we recommend channel-guided blinds, where the fabric edges run in side tracks. That keeps the blind straight and stops it flapping.
Where they work best
- Alfresco and patio areas
- Pergolas and verandahs
- Balconies that catch afternoon sun
- Screening a pool area or neighbour's view
Options
Make them yours
- Fabric
- Sunscreen mesh in different openness levels, or clear and tinted PVC.
- Guide system
- Side channels for windy sites, or wire-guided and straight-drop styles for sheltered areas.
- Operation
- Crank handle, spring-assisted, or motorised with remote.
- Colours
- Frame and fabric colours to match your house and pergola.
Worth knowing: Outdoor blinds should be raised in very strong winds unless they're rated for them. Motorised systems can add a wind sensor that raises the blind automatically.

Questions
Outdoor blinds FAQs
Mesh or clear PVC for outdoor blinds?
Mesh is best for sun and glare while keeping airflow and the view. Clear PVC is best for blocking wind and rain in winter. Some homes use both on different sides.
Will outdoor blinds stop the wind?
Channel-guided blinds with PVC or tighter-weave mesh block most wind at patio height. The side channels also stop the blind from flapping.
Can outdoor blinds be motorised?
Yes, with a remote or wall switch, and an optional wind sensor that retracts the blind in strong gusts.
