OUT DOOR BLINDS REPAIRS & MAINTENANCE

All of our outdoor blinds are manufactured locally here in Perth from quality Australian products and installed by our experienced staff. By following these tips, you can enhance the durability and longevity of your outdoor blinds, ensuring they provide reliable sun protection and privacy for years to come!

• Regular Cleaning:  Dust and dirt can accumulate on outdoor blinds, leading to wear and tear. Clean your blinds regularly using a soft cloth or brush to remove debris, and refrain from leaving foreign matter such as bird droppings. For a deeper clean, use mild soap and water, avoiding harsh chemicals that could damage the fabric or mechanisms, and fully rinse with clean (not bore) water-allowing to dry fully prior to rolling your blind(s) back up.
  
  
• Protect from Harsh Weather: Although outdoor blinds are designed to withstand the elements, extreme weather conditions like heavy rain, snow, or strong winds can cause wear. When possible, retract the blinds during harsh weather moments to protect them from unnecessary stress and damage.

• Lubricate Mechanisms: The moving parts of outdoor blinds, such as motors, gears, and tracks, can become stiff over time. Regularly lubricate these components to keep them operating smoothly. Use a silicone-based lubricant, which is safe for most blinds and won’t attract dust or dirt.
  

• Professional Maintenance: Have your outdoor blinds professionally maintained at least once a year. A professional technician will inspect the blinds, clean hard-to-reach areas, and perform any necessary repairs, ensuring that your blinds remain in top condition.
  
  
• Inspect for Damage: Periodically inspect your outdoor blinds for any signs of damage or wear, such as fraying edges, loose hardware, or malfunctioning mechanisms. Catching problems early will allow you to repair them before they become more severe, preventing costly replacements.
  
  
• Retract When Not in Use: To minimize exposure to dirt, UV rays, and wind, retract your outdoor blinds when they’re not in use. This simple habit will help extend their life and keep them looking great.
