The right awning comes down to three things: where it's going, what conditions it needs to handle, and how much flexibility you want.

FAQ’s about Awnings
Awnings are outdoor window coverings that help to keep the heat and light from entering your home or outdoor space.
Home Awnings in Melbourne, Australia serve several purposes. Primarily awnings are used for increasing privacy, preventing UV damage and shading your home from heating up under our scorching summer sun. Patio blinds are a form of awning used to enclose outdoor areas providing all-weather protection for extra functional living space. Window awnings also add character and improve the curb appeal of a house.
A canopy or Dutch hood is small fixed awning positioned above windows and doors. Unlike other awning styles they are generally not opened and closed but remain permanently in place once installed.
Each outdoor blind has unique features and benefits and will suit particular needs, functionality requirements and styles of home. Amaru’s trained specialists can help you work out which awning is right for your situation and budget.
Amaru awnings are custom-made to order; the per awning cost will depend on the size of the window you are covering, the materials of construction, and the awning style you choose. Awnings Melbourne offer an excellent return on investment. You may be surprised how cheap awnings are when compared to the value they add to your home and the money they save on home heating and cooling. We also offer affordable awning motorisation for most of the styles in our range.
While some may consider motorised awnings an extravagant luxury, they are actually a very affordable and practical upgrade. Having motorising outdoor blinds is a clever solution for hard to access and multi-storey windows. Awning motorisation also lets you quickly batten down the hatches when the weather suddenly turns from the comfort of indoors, rather than trying to wind down blinds in the wind and rain.
