Local information
Zip Awning for projects in Gibraltar
Zip awnings close the sides with a technical fabric guided by a zip in side rails, which tensions the cloth and improves the seal. In Gibraltar, the Rock, an English-speaking British territory with a dense urban core and a strong international and finance sector, that helps you hold back wind, sun and insects with technical screens.
In a modern seafront penthouse at the foot of the Rock, the guided screens cut the west-facing sun and the wind without fully darkening the space.
In Gibraltar we usually work on urban apartments and penthouses in towers, many in modern seafront developments, so each zip awning installation is made to measure for the opening, the orientation and how the terrace is lived in.

Details
What to know before installing
01
Climate and exposure
A position very exposed to the Levante wind, which blows hard through the Strait, and to salt air. The screen fabric cuts radiation and glare while keeping some visibility, and the side guides steady the cloth against gusts.
02
Property and use
Gibraltar is dominated by homes for international professionals, second residences and offices; in that context this solution fits best around pergola sides, west-facing terraces and restaurants.
03
Community and rules
Buildings with community rules and the territory's own permitting framework, worth checking in advance. We help you present the project to the community and handle the municipal steps.
04
We work as a direct manufacturer and installer, with no chain of intermediaries. We work in the Strait, within our project coverage from Estepona and the Campo de Gibraltar, which keeps the site visit, installation and later maintenance quick.
05
How we work in Gibraltar
We visit the space, take real measurements and study wind and permits before settling a tailored, no-obligation quote.

The fabric is guided by a zip in lateral profiles, which stabilises it against gusts much better than a conventional awning. We size the system for your terrace's exposure in Gibraltar, especially on west-facing orientations.
Yes — enclosing pergola sides is one of its most common uses: it closes the sides to block sun, wind and insects while keeping visibility with screen fabric. It is a frequent complement on terraces and restaurants in Gibraltar.
We do not publish fixed rates: the cost depends on fabric area, technical fabric type (screen, opaque or acoustic), motorisation, sun and wind sensors and the anchoring structure. Each case in Gibraltar is quoted individually with no obligation.
With microperforated screen fabric you keep daytime visibility to the outside while reducing solar radiation and glare. The degree of visibility depends on the fabric openness factor chosen.
The fabric needs periodic cleaning and the motor a usage-based check. In a salty environment like Gibraltar, keeping the guide profiles clean helps the system run smoothly.
