FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a Zipscreen and how does it work?
A Zipscreen is a modern external blind system designed to provide sun protection, wind resistance, privacy, and insect control for outdoor and indoor areas. It features a zip-guided track system that secures the fabric tightly within side channels, ensuring a smooth, taut finish without flapping or gaps.
Zipscreens are commonly used in outdoor entertaining areas, patios, balconies, and windows, and are ideal for Kiama’s coastal conditions, where sun, sea breezes, and changing weather are common. Available in both manual crank and motorised versions, Zipscreens can be custom-sized and colour-matched to blend seamlessly with your home’s exterior.
Are Zipscreens suitable for Kiama’s coastal climate?
Yes, Zipscreens are particularly well-suited to Kiama’s coastal environment, which experiences strong sunlight, wind, salt air, and occasional rain. Their durability comes from:
UV-resistant mesh fabrics that block harsh sunlight and reduce heat without blocking airflow.
Water-repellent or waterproof fabric options, ideal for light rain.
Powder-coated aluminium frames and side channels that resist corrosion and wear from salt exposure.
Zipscreens help homeowners in Kiama enjoy their outdoor spaces year-round while protecting interiors from UV damage and glare.
What are the benefits of installing Zipscreens on windows or patios?
Zipscreens provide a range of practical benefits, especially for homes in Kiama with open-plan layouts and ocean-facing views:
UV protection: Blocks up to 95% of UV rays, reducing heat and preventing fading of furnishings.
Privacy: High-density fabrics offer daytime privacy without compromising natural light.
Wind and insect protection: The sealed edges help prevent wind and bugs from entering outdoor areas.
All-weather comfort: Makes patios and decks usable during sunny, windy, or slightly rainy conditions.
Energy efficiency: Reduces indoor heat gain, lowering the need for air conditioning.
With their clean appearance and custom-fit design, Zipscreens are both functional and stylish.
