Function and Form
The stainless steel fixing brackets are strong and suit a wide range of installation styles. The modular design allows the brackets to be installed between posts or onto a wall or ceiling. All the accessories are mounted from inside the bracket, which is perfect for both future maintenance or installation where multiple blinds are installed next to each other. The Widescreen brackets also have a levelling feature. This allows the fabrics level to be finely tuned using an adjustment screw, which is crucial in completing a professional installation.
Widescreen brackets are supplied in a stainless steel finish, while the aluminium bottom rail is custom powder coated to your requirement, you can take a look at some of the colours by clicking here.

Smart Home Motorisation
Simple control of your outdoor blinds using your smart phone.
The Connector App allows intuitive control of your smart blinds. You can access and operate your outdoor blinds in any location by a simple click of a button on your iPhone or android device. Some other features of the app include the ability to set “Scenes” like “Home Time” or “Goodbye” where, for example, your blinds on the deck close when you leave home for the day.
Open Roller or Headbox?
Open roller system
The open roller system helps save on cost if your structure already provides some weather protection for the fabric.
Aluminium Headbox
For complete weather protection we offer a full aluminium pelmet. This hides and protects both the roller mechanism and fabric.
Magnetic Base Rail
The Widescreen Cable Guided Exterior Blind system has a clever magnetic bottom rail. As you lower the outdoor blind into the down position the magnet engages and firmly holds the blind in position with 12kgs of force. This prevents wearing of components and excess noise that usually occurs in traditional wire guided outdoor blinds. Also, the magnet is spring loaded and acts like a shock absorber when the blind is hit by a gust of wind and helps to keep the fabric nice and taut for nicer styling.
- No Noise
- Less wear and tear
- Keeps fabric taut
FAQ
How wide can outdoor blinds be?
It is recommended that outdoor blinds don’t exceed a width of 6000mm. Outdoor blinds consist of a spring, top tube and a bottom bar. While these are extremely strong, larger blinds can place more pressure on these components. The maximum width is put in place to ensure the best performance and longevity of your outdoor blinds.
How do you secure outdoor blinds?
Not all outdoor spaces are fitted with poles to help secure your outdoor blinds. In this instance, you can have an anchor point installed in the ground. A clip will be attached to the bottom of your blind which clips onto the anchor and lifts with the blind, keeping it taut and secure.
Can you see through outdoor blinds?
Outdoor blinds provide excellent protection not only from the sun, but also from curious eyes. For the most part, you can’t see through outdoor blinds – unless the person or object is right up against it. For maximum privacy, choose an outdoor blind with a tighter weave.
