Motorised Awnings and Pergolas for Year-Round Use

Learn how Somfy's motorised outdoor shading solutions like awnings and pergolas protect your outdoor spaces from sun, rain, and harsh weather in Australia.

Are you maximising the use of your beautiful garden space year-round? Unless you've optimised your outdoor space for all of Australia's seasons, you might find yourself making excuses because it's too hot, cold, sunny, windy, or rainy. Banish those excuses and install some outdoor shading this year to enjoy all of the benefits of being outdoors.

Outdoor shading solutions protect your outdoor spaces from sun, rain, and harsh weather, so you can breathe the fresh air any time of year. Whether you're entertaining guests, enjoying the views from your garden, or spending time with family, you can make everyone much more comfortable and maximise the use of your space.

What Are Awnings and Pergolas?

Awnings and pergolas are the two most popular outdoor shade solutions on the market. An awning is attached to the exterior wall of your house and extends over your outdoor space to provide shade and weather protection, usually made from a strong fabric material. A pergola is a more permanent structure with open sides and a roof with slats that can adjust open, close, or tilt at different angles depending on the weather conditions.

Three Reasons to Motorise Your Awnings and Pergolas

Somfy's motorised solutions for awnings and pergolas make it easy to enjoy a comfortable, climate-controlled outdoor space at the touch of a button. Here's why motorisation is the key to your comfort this year. 

Protect Your Awnings and Pergolas

While awnings and pergolas protect you and your outdoor space from weather conditions when you're outside, what happens when you're not using your outdoor space? Using Somfy sensors, our motors will automatically retract your awning and adjust the slats on your pergola to keep them safe from the weather too. Plus, by automating the process you eliminate manual handling and extend the lifespan of your product.

Enjoy Your Outdoor Oasis All Year

Outdoor shading solutions aren't just for providing shade in the summertime. With the addition of motorised awnings, pergolas and even external screens, you can create an enclosed outdoor room to act as a cosy extension of your home which can be utilised all year-round.

Control Everything at the Touch of a Button

Somfy's automated outdoor shading solutions give you complete control with either a remote, the Connexoon Window RTS app on your phone, or even voice control. When you're heading outside, simply tap a button to retract or deploy your motorised awnings or adjust the slats on your motorised pergola.

Bring Home Automation Outdoors

Home automation is a common solution for controlling the climate inside of your home, so why not bring it outside too?

There's no better way to protect your outdoor furniture, stay comfortable, and enjoy the benefits of your home's outdoor living spaces all year long than with automated outdoor shading.
