AWNINGS & OUTDOOR BLINDS GLADESVILLE

Complete Blinds supplies and installs custom awnings Gladesville homeowners can rely on — made-to-measure, professionally fitted, and suited to the area’s mix of riverside and elevated residential properties.

Gladesville sits on the Lower North Shore along the Parramatta River, with a mix of character homes, contemporary townhouses, and properties that enjoy elevated outlooks and generous outdoor entertaining areas. Warm summers and the suburb’s open, north-facing aspects make shade and weather protection a practical priority.

A quality awning extends the usability of your outdoor spaces and helps manage heat in the home through the warmer months.

BENEFITS OF CUSTOM AWNINGS & OUTDOOR BLINDS

Superior Sun Protection

Gladesville properties — particularly those on elevated blocks with open northern aspects — can receive intense direct sun across deck and alfresco areas through the middle of the day. Built to block UV before it reaches people and surfaces below, our awnings provide real protection that makes those spaces genuinely comfortable to use.

Enhanced Energy Efficiency

Shading north and west-facing glazing from the outside is far more efficient than running air conditioning to compensate once heat has entered the home. Covering those key windows and doors naturally reduces the cooling load across summer. For Gladesville homes with water views and large glazed rear elevations, that benefit is especially noticeable.

Weather Resistance

Sydney’s climate combines strong UV, humidity, and storms that can arrive quickly off the river. Made from UV-stabilised canvas, mesh, and PVC fabrics, our awnings resist fading, shed water reliably, and hold up through years of regular outdoor exposure. Outdoor furniture and surfaces beneath them stay protected through every season.

Gladesville’s housing spans Federation and interwar character homes through to contemporary builds and newer townhouses. We carry folding arm awnings for open decks and entertaining areas, straight drop awnings for windows and verandah openings, and the Luxaflex EVO MagnaTrack for larger or more exposed alfresco situations. Fabric colours span heritage tones through to contemporary neutrals.

Tony

What an absolute pleasure to deal with complete blinds. I was unsure of what I was after but nothing was too hard for Dean who did the initial quote. The roller blinds we ordered arrived very quickly and the office girls were very flexible and helpful to fit in with my busy schedule. I would highly recommend complete blinds to anyone looking for any style of blinds or shutters, nothing is too hard for them.

Jenny

Complete Blinds were brilliant! I had motorised blinds and curtains installed. Dean was superb and gave great advice and insight. Installation by Pedro was 10/10. They have transformed my house into a home! Thank you!

Dave

We recently replaced all the blinds in the house and the experience of working with Complete Blinds is really pleasant. Bronwyn not only did all the measurements but also suggested colours of the blinds to match the interior paint. John the technician did a great job installing the blinds and made modifications to our request. Overall a great experience.

Wei Min

I had plantation shutters and vertical blinds installed by these guys. Sales, admin and installers were helpful and professional. Some items came from manufacturers that had the wrong dimensions but the team was helpful and resolved them quickly. Thanks, team!

Billy

Very happy with our recent install by Complete Blinds. Our experience with all team members was fantastic. Bronwyn was most helpful when discussing products and very honest with her opinion (which has been right!), Pedro was very efficient in installing the items, and Leah was a very friendly person behind every phone call. The price was competitive but didn’t compromise on quality. Thanks, team. Will recommend.

Leah

We recently had Complete Blinds install plantation shutters and curtains in our home and the service was second to none. The installation by John was very professional and we are delighted with the overall results. Troy was very helpful in choosing the right colours for the products we chose. It was a great experience all around and great to deal with a company that not only values their customers but their employees as well. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them

Josephine

We recently had Plantation Shutters installed and they are all perfect. Pedro was wonderful and very clean throughout the installation process. Spotless. Highly recommend Complete Blinds!

Juliana

If I could give 10 stars I would!! From start to finish these guys/girls are flawless from quote to installation. Competitive prices and very well finished products. Would use them again in a heartbeat:)

Joseph

We purchased fixed-arm awnings from Complete Blinds in 2018. We were so happy with how they performed, Complete Blinds were the only company I contacted when it came time to add more awnings in 2021.
Professional, courteous, friendly, and communicative. Would not use anyone else.

Nick

I recently purchased motorised blackout and privacy blinds from complete blinds. To say I’m happy with the results would be an understatement. Dean and the team took great care making sure I chose the right products to suit and everything fits perfectly! Installed by Pedro who did an amazing job finishing everything off to the highest standards. The photos do not do them justice!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you install awnings in Gladesville?

Yes — Gladesville is part of our regular Lower North Shore service area. We offer free in-home consultations and handle all installation in-house with our own team.

What awning types suit Gladesville’s mix of character and contemporary homes?

Folding arm awnings suit open deck and entertaining areas well — no floor posts needed, and multiple units cover wider spans. For character homes with verandahs or west-facing windows, straight drop awnings in heritage fabric tones are a natural fit.

Are motorised awnings a good option near the river?

Yes — particularly useful where river breezes and occasional strong winds are a factor. A motorised awning with a wind sensor retracts automatically when conditions pick up, protecting the fabric and mechanism without you needing to be home.

What fabric handles humidity and moisture best?

Woven acrylic or solution-dyed mesh are reliable choices in riverside environments. Both resist moisture-related mould and hold up well against the combination of UV and humidity that comes with a waterside location.

How soon after ordering can an awning be installed?

Lead times vary depending on the product and fabric chosen. Your consultant will give you an accurate estimate at the time of quoting. Most installations are completed in a half-day to a full day.
