Carports & drives

Protect vehicles, boats and caravans from sun and hail with a clean carport-span sail — engineered posts, no clutter, no roller-door aesthetic.

Our process

How it works

One of our designers comes to you, takes the measurements, talks through fabric and fixing options, and follows up with a design and a fixed-price quote. No obligation, no cost and nothing made until you've seen exactly how it will look.

  1. 01 Consult

    One of our consultants to visit your premise and give you a quote along with design ideas.

    • understand the shade requirements
    • plan the sail parameters
    • plan the types and position of the posts and other fixtures
    • apply for Council approvals, etc.
  2. 02 Design

    Your sail is modelled to the site measurements so you can see shape, coverage and colour before anything is made.

  3. 03 Fabricate & Engineer

    Sails are cut and sewn in-house from commercial-grade fabric, engineered to Australian standards.

  4. 04 Install

    Our own crews set the posts, tension the sail and leave the site clean and ready to use.

  5. 05 Ongoing maintenance

    Re-tensioning, cleaning advice and repairs to keep the sail performing for its full warranty life.
