Ziptrak® Blinds Gold Coast — Meet ZipGlide.
Looking for a side-channel outdoor blind like Ziptrak®? ZipGlide is our own — engineered, made in our Currumbin Waters factory and installed by our own Gold Coast team. Spans up to 5.5m, spring, solar or 240V operation, smart-home ready, and backed by a 5-year warranty.
Sealed edges. Sheltered outdoor living.
Side-channel blinds — the style Ziptrak® made popular — lock the fabric edge into a track, so the blind stays firm and your outdoor space stays sheltered.
Sealed Edges
The fabric edge runs inside side channels, helping keep wind, rain, dust and insects out of your outdoor area.
No Flapping
Held firm in the channels, the blind stays put in everyday coastal breezes — no rattling or banging.
A Clean View
No zips, clips, ropes or pulleys on show — just a slim bottom rail and a neat cassette overhead.
An Outdoor Room, All Year
Turn a verandah, deck or alfresco into a space you can use through summer sun and winter evenings.
