Traditional Pull down Type Shop Blind.

Probably still the most durable type of system available today, all hand built to much the same specifications they were 100 years ago, the only exceptions being seamless steel tube for the barrel and acrylic or pvc material for the covers, natural canvas is still available  although not so widely used. Because of their construction using basic readily available materials, repairs or refurbishment of existing systems are usually straight forward and cost effective, which means the system can be kept operable and looking good for years.

Drop Arm Awnings

Ideal for either high level windows, or windows receiving a low sun, which require a deeper area of shade where Dutch awnings or folding arm awnings are not practical?
