Zipscreens for Alfresco, Patio and Outdoor Living Areas

Outdoor areas fail when sun, glare, wind or neighbour privacy make the space uncomfortable. Zipscreens help make the area more usable without fully closing it in.

We bring curtain and blind samples to your home in Newcastle, Lake Macquarie & Central Coast.
