So happy with our new awning. Mike from Aluminium Awnings sorted everything out for us, even the little extras we asked for at the last minute.
A pool deck is where Cape summers happen — but unshaded, it’s unusable by midday and exposed to the south-easter. Here are the shade options that actually work poolside, and how to choose between them.
A louvre roof over the lounge end lets you open for sun while swimming and close for shade or a sudden shower — the most flexible poolside cover.
A composite or extruded pergola with a polycarbonate roof gives permanent, dry cover — ideal for a fixed dining or lounge zone by the water. See our Tokai polycarbonate pergola.
Chlorine, splash and salt are hard on cheap structures. Marine-grade aluminium, stainless fixings and no ferrous metal are non-negotiable next to a pool.
Open pool decks catch the Cape Doctor. A motorised louvre roof with a wind sensor reacts automatically — see covers for the Cape Doctor.
Many homes combine a louvre roof over the lounge with a pergola over the dining area, in matching finishes, so the whole pool area reads as one outdoor room.
A louvre roof for adjustable shade, or a polycarbonate-roofed pergola for permanent dry cover. Many pool areas use both over different zones.
Marine-grade aluminium with no ferrous metal and stainless fixings is built for it — and backed by our lifetime corrosion guarantee.
Yes — covering the lounge or dining zone while leaving the swimming end open is a common, practical layout.

Really happy with the whole experience. The team at Aluminium Awnings were on time, tidy and did exactly what they said they would. Our patio is finally usable in summer.
Aluminium Awnings Cape Town het ons heeltemal beïndruk. Die kwaliteit is uitstekend en die prys was billik. Ons sal hulle beslis aanbeveel.
Beautiful job. Aluminium Awnings were neat and polite, and the install crew Vincent and Pfunzo finished exactly when they said they would. We love sitting outside now even when it drizzles.
Honestly the best money we've spent on the house. Aluminium Awnings were spot on, and where we are in Durbanville gets a lot of wind but it holds up perfectly.
From the first phone call to the final clean up Aluminium Awnings Cape Town were brilliant. So happy we found someone reliable in Bloubergstrand.
The louvre roof they installed has completely changed our outdoor area. We can open it when it's sunny and close it when the rain comes in. Thanks Aluminium Awnings.
Ek is baie tevrede met Aluminium Awnings. Die span was vriendelik en het alles netjies gelos. Ons stoep is nou ons gunsteling plek in die huis.
Quick, clean and fair priced. Aluminium Awnings did a great job on our louvre awning and I'd use them again without thinking twice.
Very impressed with Aluminium Awnings. Good communication throughout and the quality is exactly what we hoped for.
Got a few quotes and Aluminium Awnings were the most professional by far. Lance talked us through all the options without any pressure and the stoep looks amazing now.
We use our braai area so much more now thanks to Aluminium Awnings. Lekker quality and the guys were friendly.
