Why Choose Custom Awnings?

Good awnings do more than look tidy. They help your home work better in local weather.


  • Protect Your Home from Heat and Glare
    By shading your windows and walls, awnings prevent heat build-up inside. They’re ideal for west-facing homes or sun-drenched patios.
  • Customised to Suit Your Space
    Available in a wide range of fabrics, colours and styles. Choose fixed or retractable options to match your home’s look and function.
  • Built to Handle Harsh Conditions
    Our awnings are designed to resist cracking, shrinking and discolouration. Made for long-term performance in Australian weather.
  • More Usable Outdoor Space
    Shade patios, decks or verandahs so you can enjoy them year-round. Retractable models offer flexibility depending on the season.


If you are also comparing window coverings for inside, our team can talk you through Blinds, Plantation Shutters or Roller Shutters to complete the look.

Our Awning Range

We help you pick the best style for each opening so you get the right mix of shade, airflow and view.

Auto Awnings


A classic choice for street facing windows. Side guides let you slide the awning down to the height you want, then lock it off for shade and privacy.



  • Best for ground floor windows
  • Easy to stop at any point for changing sun angles
  • Helps cool rooms and protect furnishings
  • Wide choice of fabrics and colours
  • Manual control as standard, motorisation available on request

Straight Drop Awnings


A simple vertical drop that suits patios, verandas and balconies where space is tight. Clean lines and a compact top box make it a tidy option for modern facades.


  • Best for outdoor living where you want shade and privacy
  • Strap or bracket fixings hold the base secure
  • Choose how much view you want with different fabric openness
  • Works well side by side to create an outdoor room

Ziptrak Style Track Guided Blinds


Side tracks guide the fabric and hold it in place, which helps reduce flapping and light gaps. This creates a calmer outdoor area with better wind resistance.



  • Best for enclosing alfresco areas and decks
  • Manual or motorised operation
  • Good protection from weather and insects
  • Smooth to operate with minimal effort


If you are unsure which option suits your opening, use this quick guide. Windows and street facing rooms often suit Auto Awnings. Compact patios and balconies often suit Straight Drop Awnings. Alfresco areas where you want a calmer space usually suit Ziptrak style track guided blinds.

Fabrics, Colours and Hardware

Your awning works hard in the sun and wind, so fabric choice matters. We will recommend the right material for the level of shade, view and airflow you want.


  • Mesh fabrics allow airflow and outward view while cutting heat and glare
  • Acrylic and canvas fabrics give stronger shade and more privacy
  • Blockout fabrics are available for very bright exposures
  • All fabrics are selected for outdoor use and are made to resist fading and moisture


Colour choice can match your facade or contrast for a feature look. Hardware is available in popular powder coat colours for a clean finish.

Operation and Motorisation

Every awning can be simple to use. Choose from manual or motorised control based on the size and height of the install.


  • Manual options use crank handles or spring assist depending on the style
  • Motorised options use a quiet motor with a wall switch or remote
  • Smart control is available so you can add timers or voice control if you wish
  • Rechargeable battery motors can avoid cabling on some installs


If you are planning automation, ask our team about controls and compatibility. We can point you to the right setup on our Motorisation page.

Awnings for Newcastle Homes

Local weather can be bright and breezy. Awnings help manage both.


  • West and north facing windows benefit most from shade
  • Patios and decks feel cooler with a well chosen fabric openness
  • Coastal exposure calls for quality components and a tidy fit
  • Apartments often need compact straight drop styles that do not project into walkways


We install across Newcastle, Beresfield, Maitland, and the Hunter Valley. Check your suburb on our Locations page or ask the team when booking.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Which awning suits my space?

    Windows that face the street often suit Auto Awnings. Compact patios and balconies suit Straight Drop Awnings. Alfresco areas where you want to block wind and insects suit Ziptrak style track guided blinds. We will confirm the best match during your measure and quote.

  • Can awnings be motorised?

    Yes. Most styles can be motorised with a wall switch or remote, and many can connect to smart control. See Motorisation for details.

  • Do awnings help with heat and glare?

    Yes. Shading glass from the outside is one of the most effective ways to reduce solar heat gain and protect furnishings from UV.

  • What fabrics are available?

    Mesh, acrylic and canvas are the most common. Mesh allows view and airflow. Acrylic and canvas provide stronger shade and more privacy. We will bring samples to your appointment.

  • How much maintenance is needed?

    Give fabrics a gentle wash now and then, keep fixings clear of debris and avoid rolling away when the fabric is very wet for long periods. If weather is severe, leave the awning up or follow the style specific advice from our team.

  • Do you service my suburb?

    We install across Newcastle and nearby regions. Check Locations or ask when you book.

  • How do I choose the right type of awning for my space?

    Start by considering what you need most—shade, privacy, weather protection, or an all-season outdoor area. Straight-drop awnings work well for basic shade and privacy, while retractable or auto options let you adjust coverage as the sun moves. Ziptrak blinds are ideal for enclosing outdoor spaces against wind and insects, and motorised awnings add convenience with push-button control. Also think about the size of your area, how much sun or coastal weather it faces, and the style of your home, since fabrics and colours can transform its look. If you’re unsure, a professional can guide you to the best choice for your needs and budget.
