HIDDEN z-LOCKTM TECHNOLOGY
Breakthrough z-LOCKTM technology provides a unique fabric guide, fastening and securing the welded zip and fabric concealed within the side channels; creating a strong, smooth and streamlined system.
The hidden z-LOCKTM function ensures no gap between the fabric screen and side channels and a secure guided movement that won’t blow out in the wind.
Relaxing Insect Free Environment
A total seal provided by Ombra’s z-LOCKTM technology and the bottom sealing strip aids in creating a relaxing insect free environment.
Motorisation
We carry a variety of Somfy, Acmeda, Alpha and Simu motor solutions. In addition to modern remote controls, it is possible to control blinds with wall switches, light sensors, timers, sun sensors, wind sensors and home management systems.
Have total control right in the palm of your hand, whether you’re home or away. Our shades can be controlled directly from your smart phone, using Automate motors together with the Automate Pulse hub. Receive live animated shade feedback, through the Automate app, and know exactly what your shades are doing.
For the ultimate comfort and convenience, Acmeda Automate Shades are now compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Control your shades without even having to lift a finger, lower or raise them with a simple voice command instead.
Fabrics
When selecting your screening fabric consider the colours on your exterior such as the roof, guttering, bricks and other finishes. Our matching COLORBOND® fabric colour ranges will work harmoniously with the COLORBOND® exterior palette.

"I just had my floor boards which I purchased from Eastern Flooring and had them installed by them. I can't express enough how happy I am with the floor boards. I made the right choice and I love them. My cat is very unhappy cause he can't scratch anymore. Lol. Mercifully I had an old carpet so I let him play with it. The workmanship on the floor boards was excellent and would recommend anyone."
