Chainless blades offer added convenience for homes with pets or high-traffic areas, preventing tangling and enhancing durability. With a range of fabrics and patterns to choose from, vertical blinds can be tailored to complement any room style.
In addition to their aesthetic appeal, vertical blinds are highly functional, offering precise light and privacy control. They take up minimal space and provide a clean, streamlined look, making them a popular choice for both modern and classic interiors.

Genuine Local Reviews
Peninsula curtains and blinds are very professional. We originally used them 14 yrs ago and again recently. They bent over backwards to accommodate us with a limited time frame.
Troy worked tirelessly getting the house ready and his efforts were really appreciated.
I recently had the need to replace the curtains and blinds in my home, after several inquiries of who to go with, I decided on Peninsula Curtains & Blinds. The service was first class and the quality of the curtains and blinds is absolutely amazing. I would have no hesitation to recommend them to anyone at any time.
We are slowly renovating 1 room at a time and peninsula curtains have been a great help! Their fabric collection was huge and helped my partner visualise the products. The decorator was on time which was great and the installation process was easy to book in. We love our finished rooms and will go back to finish off our house.
Vertical Blinds FAQ
Can straight drop awnings be used for privacy?
Absolutely! Straight drop awnings create a solid screen when lowered, ideal for enclosing patios or shielding windows from prying eyes. With a range of fabrics from our collection, Peninsula Curtains & Blinds can craft a private oasis tailored to your home.
How do pivot arm awnings differ from straight drop awnings?
Pivot arm awnings extend outward with arms for adjustable shade over windows, while straight drop awnings hang vertically, offering full coverage and privacy for patios or balconies. Both are custom made locally, perfect for Peninsula homes needing style and function.
What is the best type of outdoor awning?
The “best” awning depends on your needs! Folding arm awnings suit large shaded areas, pivot arms are great for windows, straight drops offer privacy, and wire-guide awnings work for modern homes. At Peninsula Curtains & Blinds, we’ll help you choose during a free consultation, tailoring it to your home layout and Peninsula lifestyle.
What space is needed to install a folding arm awning?
Installation is flexible, but you’ll need a sturdy wall or roofline with enough clearance—typically 2–3 metres wide and space for the arms to extend (up to 4 metres out). Our team at Peninsula Curtains & Blinds offers free in-home consultations to measure your space and ensure a perfect fit.
Will my folding arm awning get damaged in the wind?
Not if cared for properly! Our folding arm awnings feature strong, powder-coated aluminium frames and wind resistant fabrics chosen by Peninsula Curtains & Blinds to withstand coastal gusts. While they’re built for durability, retracting them in severe winds ensures they last for years, backed by our expert advice and warranty.
Can you leave a retractable awning out in rain or wind?
Our folding arm awnings are built tough, designed to protect from light rain and moderate breeze; however we recommend retracting them during heavy rain or strong winds to avoid strain. Designed to handle winds up to 48kph, they’re durable—but for peace of mind in Peninsula’s wilder weather, a quick retraction keeps them in top condition.
Do folding arm awnings provide shade?
Yes, folding arm awnings are perfect for creating generous shade over your patio or deck. Extending out from your home, they block harsh sunlight while keeping your outdoor space cool and comfortable—ideal for enjoying Peninsula summers. At Peninsula Curtains & Blinds, we customise them with UV-resistant fabrics to suit your needs.
Can Ziptrak blinds be motorised?
We offer motorised Ziptrak blinds for added convenience. With a remote control or even smartphone integration, you can raise or lower your blinds effortlessly. Ideal for hard-to- reach spots or larger installations. At Peninsula Curtains & Blinds, we’ll guide you through the options during your free in-home consultation to find the perfect setup for your Mornington Peninsula home.
Are Ziptraks easy to clean and maintain?
Absolutely! Ziptrak blinds are designed for low-maintenance living. A quick wipe with a soft cloth and mild soapy water keeps them looking fresh, followed by a rinse and dry before rolling up. The durable aluminium tracks and high-quality fabrics we use at Peninsula Curtains & Blinds resist rust and wear, so your blinds stay in top shape with minimal effort.
Can Ziptrak blinds keep air conditioning in?
Ziptrak blinds help maintain indoor comfort by creating a sealed outdoor area that reduces airflow. When fully lowered and locked, they help retain cooled air from your air conditioning, making your patio or verandah feel like an extension of your home. Let our team at Peninsula Curtains & Blinds tailor a solution to suit your space.
