Key points
- Zip guides = better wind behaviour and side seal.
- Screen fabrics cut heat while keeping a view.
- Pair with bioclimatic pergolas for four-season use.
- Product page: zip awning.
How a zip system differs
The fabric edge runs in a zipper track inside aluminium guides. That reduces flapping and improves lateral sealing versus free-hanging cloth — important with coastal gusts.
When to choose zip
- Pergola side closures for summer shade and light rain protection.
- Large glazed fronts that need solar control without losing the view.
- Hospitality terraces that open fully for service and close for wind.

Frequently asked questions
Can I still see out?
With micro-perforated screen fabric, yes — density varies by product. We show samples on site.
Do I need a wind sensor?
On exposed terraces we recommend it so the system retracts in strong gusts.
