Motorised louvred pergolas, retractable roofs, zip screens, sliding glass, awnings and parasols, made to measure for your roof, terrace or garden and quoted after a site survey.
Cooler air and a low sun from the east. Open the louvres wide to let the sea breeze through the roof. The zip screens stay rolled up, the glass stays open and the lights are off.
An example summer day, simplified. Real shading depends on the system, which way the pergola faces and where the sun is. Automatic sun, rain and wind sensors are options on most motorised systems.
Systems
Start with a roof, then decide how far to close the sides. Most homes combine a louvred or retractable roof with screens or glass on the sides that catch the low sun or the wind.
Aluminium blades in the roof rotate to let in light and air, give shade, or close against rain. The most flexible way to live outside all year.
A roof that slides back to open sky, then runs out again for shade or a shower. Good where you want the terrace fully open most of the time.
Fabric screens held in side channels by a zip edge, so they stay put in a breeze. For low sun, glare, privacy and insects, on a pergola or an opening.
Glass panels that slide along a track to close the sides of a pergola or veranda, so you can use it on windy days and in the cooler months.
Also
Not every space needs a structure. For a balcony, a shopfront or a restaurant terrace, an awning or a good parasol is often the right answer.
AwningsFabric on folding arms that rolls away into a closed case on the wall, so the fabric and arms are protected when you are not using it. Motorised, with optional wind and sun sensors.
Awnings
ParasolsCentre-pole, side-pole and giant parasols for gardens, pools and terraces. For restaurants and hotels: your own logo, LED lighting and heaters as options.

Built for Malta
Malta is a hard place for outdoor structures. These are the things we look at on every survey, and the questions worth asking whoever you buy from.
Salt is hard on metal, even a few streets back from the sea. Ask for a marine-grade powder coat on the aluminium and stainless-steel fixings.
Coastal rooftops can be very exposed. Choose a system with the right wind rating for your position, and get the rating and certificates in writing before you order.
Soft limestone walls and thin roof slabs need the right anchors, or a freestanding frame. The survey checks what your structure can take.
A closable roof on a visible roof or terrace may need a permit. Check with a perit before you install. Read the guide.
How it works
Send us a few photos and rough measurements to start. Nothing is ordered until you have a written quote and the paperwork for the system.
We visit, measure, look at the walls, slab and drainage, note how exposed the spot is to wind and sea air, and flag whether planning is a question.
We recommend a system and options to suit the space and how you will use it, then quote in writing with the frame colour, the controls and the wind rating and certificates.
Made to measure and fitted by an installation team, with a handover on how to use and care for the system.
Questions
Short answers. Ask us anything else when you get in touch.
It depends on the structure and where it goes. An open pergola is treated differently from a louvred roof that closes completely, and a roof or terrace that can be seen from the street is treated differently from a back yard. Ask a perit before you order. We flag the question at the survey, and our planning guide explains the background.
When the blades close, they are designed to shed rain into gutters built into the frame. How well a roof copes with heavy or wind-driven rain depends on the system, and the open sides still let weather in unless you add zip screens or glass. Ask for the specification of the exact system before you order.
Every system has a maximum wind rating, and it can differ between open and closed, and with screens up or down. We give you the wind rating and certificates for the exact system before you order, and we match the system to how exposed your roof or terrace is. Wind sensors can raise screens and awnings automatically.
Everything is made to measure, so the price depends on the size, the system, the fixings your roof or wall needs and the options you choose. We quote in writing after a site survey.
Yes. We work across Malta and Gozo.
Next step
A few photos and rough measurements are enough to start. We will come back to arrange a site survey.
