FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is a Zipscreen and how does it work?
A Zipscreen is a type of external window furnishing or outdoor blind system designed to provide protection from the elements while enhancing comfort and privacy. It features a zip-guided track that securely holds the fabric inside side channels, preventing flapping and eliminating gaps. This creates a sealed barrier that’s ideal for patios, verandahs, balconies, and external windows.
In the Southern Highlands—where conditions range from cold winter winds to strong summer sun—Zipscreens help regulate temperature, reduce glare, and shield outdoor areas from wind and rain, while maintaining visibility and airflow.
Are Zipscreens suitable for the climate in the Southern Highlands?
Yes, Zipscreens are highly suitable for the Southern Highlands' diverse weather, which includes cold winters, wet conditions, and intense sunlight during summer. Key features that make them ideal for the area include:
UV-resistant mesh fabrics that block up to 95% of sunlight while maintaining outdoor views.
Wind-resistant track systems that keep the screen stable and effective even on gusty days.
Water-repellent or waterproof fabric options, protecting outdoor living spaces from light rain.
Thermal benefits, helping retain warmth on chilly days when enclosing an alfresco area.
These qualities make Zipscreens a year-round solution for extending usable outdoor space in homes throughout Bowral, Mittagong, Moss Vale, and beyond.
Do Zipscreens offer privacy as well as sun protection?
Yes, Zipscreens provide both privacy and solar protection, making them a smart addition to homes where outdoor privacy is needed. Depending on the fabric density:
High-density mesh provides daytime privacy while still allowing occupants to see out.
Opaque or blockout fabrics are available for maximum privacy and sun control, especially in entertaining areas.
The tensioned fit within side channels means no gaps or light leaks, which is ideal for side-facing areas or properties with close neighbours.
While Zipscreens maintain privacy during the day, interior lights may reduce privacy at night, especially with sheer mesh. Many homeowners layer with indoor blinds or curtains for complete coverage.
