Outdoor Blinds – ZIPtrack, Side-Channel & Smart Options

Bring your outside in. Our outdoor blinds are designed to transform patios, verandas, and alfresco areas into comfortable, usable spaces—protected from wind, rain, sun, and insects. Whether you call them ZIPtrack, ZIPscreen, or side-channel blinds, these systems use guided tracks to hold fabric securely in place, creating a sealed environment that’s perfect for relaxing, dining, or entertaining outdoors.

At Taylor & Stirling, we custom-make outdoor blinds to suit your home’s style and your lifestyle—offering a range of fabrics, finishes, and smart control options to help you enjoy your outdoor space all year round.


🌿 More Living Space, Less Renovation

Outdoor blinds let you extend your living area without building. By enclosing your outdoor zones, you gain extra floor space, privacy, and comfort—without the cost or disruption of permanent construction.

  • Enjoy year-round comfort with protection from wind, rain, and UV
  • Maintain your view while adding privacy and shade
  • Create a seamless indoor-outdoor flow for entertaining and relaxing
  • Increase energy efficiency by shading windows and reducing heat gain
  • Keep insects out while letting fresh air in

⚙️ Motorisation & Smart Control

Our outdoor blinds can be motorised for effortless control and smart home integration.

  • 240V wired motors – Ideal for new builds or renovations
  • Battery or solar-powered motors – Perfect for retrofits or hard-to-reach areas
  • Matter-compatible motors – Future-ready control with no hub required
  • Smart home integration – Works with Apple Home, Google Home, and Alexa
  • App-based scheduling – Set routines, sunrise/sunset triggers, or group controls
  • Remote access – Adjust your blinds from anywhere

Motorisation adds convenience, safety, and energy efficiency—especially for large spans, high windows, or outdoor entertaining areas.


🧵 Fabric & Finish Options

  • Mesh fabrics – Colourbond-inspired tones, breathable, ideal for year-round use
  • Clear or tinted PVC – For uninterrupted views and wind/rain protection
  • Powder-coated aluminium frames and side tracks
  • Side-welded zips for secure fabric retention
  • Optional pelmets: open, Colorbond, or fully enclosed aluminium
