As the winter chill starts to hit the Sunshine Coast, it’s time to start thinking about how to keep your outdoor spaces comfortable and enjoyable. One of the best ways to winter-proof your outdoor space is by installing awnings. At Custom Curtains and Shade, we offer a wide range of custom-made awnings that provide shade, privacy, and protection, all while enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home. Here are ways you can benefit  from installing awnings on the Sunshine Coast, to keep comfortable all year round. Protection from the Elements Winter weather on the Sunshine Coast can be unpredictable, with sudden rain showers and gusty winds. Our high-quality awnings offer excellent protection from these elements, ensuring you can enjoy your outdoor space year-round. Whether you choose our straight drop crank-operated awnings or motorised Ziptrak® awnings, you’ll find the perfect solution to shield your patio or deck from the harsh winter weather. Additionally, our metal awnings are particularly robust and durable, providing a sturdy barrier against the elements. Enhanced Privacy An outdoor space should be a private retreat where you can relax without prying eyes. Our external window awnings and canopy awnings provide an added layer of privacy, making your outdoor areas feel more secluded and secure. With a variety of colours and styles to choose from, you can create a private oasis that matches your aesthetic preferences. Our fabric awnings offer a softer look and can be customised in a range of vibrant colours and patterns to enhance your space’s visual appeal while maintaining privacy.
