Ballina Awnings
Awnings are one of the most effective ways to make your home or outdoor area more liveable—especially in sunny, coastal towns like Ballina. At Lismore Curtains & Blinds, we design, supply and install custom awnings to suit local weather conditions, property styles and lifestyle needs. Whether you need extra shade for a patio, UV protection for your windows or year-round cover for a commercial entrance, our awnings provide a tailored solution.
We offer a wide selection of styles, including Zipscreen, Veue, folding arm, Shan, and traditional or budget awnings. These can be configured for manual or motorised operation and are made with durable materials built to withstand heat, salt air and exposure. Our team will guide you through fabric choices, fitment options and practical details to ensure your awning does exactly what you need it to—without compromising on style.

What is the best type of awning for strong sun exposure?
Zipscreen and Veue awnings are excellent for high sun exposure. Zipscreens create a full enclosure effect and block UV rays while still allowing airflow. Veue awnings come in different configurations and use heavy-duty fabrics that reduce heat transfer into your home. Both styles are ideal for Ballina’s sunny conditions.
Can awnings be used over sliding glass doors?
Yes, folding arm awnings and straight-drop styles work well over sliding glass doors. Folding arms allow shade without obstructing the doorway and retract easily when not in use. These are popular in outdoor dining and entertaining areas, offering flexibility and maintaining walk-through space while protecting from sun and rain.
Do motorised awnings require special wiring or installation?
Motorised awnings do require electrical connection but can often be integrated without major rewiring. Many use remote-controlled systems that operate through wall switches or handheld remotes. Battery-powered options are also available for less invasive installs. Our team assesses your space to recommend the easiest and safest setup for your property.
What is the typical maintenance required for outdoor awnings?
Outdoor awnings are generally low-maintenance, but regular care helps extend their lifespan and maintain their appearance. It’s important to brush off dirt, leaves and debris to prevent buildup, especially after windy days. Gently rinse the fabric with clean water every few months and let it dry fully before retracting to avoid mould or mildew. Inspect the frame and moving parts for rust, corrosion or fabric wear—particularly in coastal areas like Lismore, where salt air can accelerate deterioration. Lubricating joints and ensuring fittings remain secure can also help prevent unnecessary strain or mechanical issues over time.
