When the colder months set in, it’s easy to neglect your outdoor spaces. But with the right outdoor blinds, your patio, pergola, or balcony can be transformed into a comfortable, protected extension of your home — even in winter. That’s where Zipscreen outdoor blinds come in.
At Designer Blinds To You, we love Zipscreen blinds for their sleek design, weather-resistant performance, and year-round functionality. Whether you’re entertaining friends or enjoying a quiet morning coffee outside, Zipscreen blinds allow you to enjoy the outdoors in comfort — rain, wind, or shine.
What Are Zipscreen Outdoor Blinds?
Zipscreen blinds are a premium outdoor blind system designed to create a seamless barrier against the elements. Their signature feature is a side-retention system that secures the fabric within the track, preventing gaps that let in wind or rain. The result? A cleaner look and far better protection compared to standard roller blinds.
These blinds are ideal for enclosing outdoor areas like alfresco dining zones, patios, verandas, and balconies. They help create a more usable space without the need for permanent construction or walls.
Why They’re Perfect for Winter
One of the best things about Zipscreen blinds is how effective they are in colder weather. The high-quality mesh fabric acts as a barrier against cool winds while still allowing filtered light to enter. This helps keep your outdoor space warmer and more pleasant, without making it feel closed in.
Whether you’re enjoying a firepit night, having guests over for dinner, or simply wanting to keep the chill out while your kids play undercover — Zipscreen blinds let you enjoy the space without retreating indoors.
Wind and Rain Protection with Breathable Mesh
The secret to Zipscreen’s winter performance is in the mesh fabric. It’s engineered to reduce wind, block light rain, and maintain privacy — all while letting air circulate. This balance makes it ideal for Australian outdoor living, where conditions can change quickly. Take a look at our dedicated page where you’ll find videos showing the fantastic features of zipscreen blinds.
Unlike plastic café blinds, the mesh won’t trap heat or fog up. And because it’s breathable, you can roll it down for protection or roll it up to enjoy the fresh air — all within seconds.
Easy to Maintain — Even in Winter
Another reason customers love Zipscreen blinds? They’re incredibly low-maintenance.
The durable mesh fabric is designed to handle the elements. If it collects dust, leaves, or dirt, you can simply hose it down. There’s no need for special cleaners or treatments — just a quick spray and you’re done.
Even better, the fabric can be rolled up while it’s still wet. It will dry out naturally, so there’s no need to wait around for it to be bone dry before retracting. This makes them perfect for high-traffic outdoor areas and busy lifestyles.
Style and Function in One
Zipscreen blinds aren’t just practical — they look great too. The minimalist design integrates beautifully with modern homes and outdoor structures. With custom sizing and colour options available, your blinds will be tailored to match your home’s look and feel.
You can also choose between manual and motorised operation, depending on your needs and budget.
