Ziptrak® outdoor blinds for year‑round living

Redgraves Home Fabrics

Ziptrak® is a track‑guided outdoor blind system that creates sheltered outdoor rooms, ideal for decks, patios and balconies in New Zealand homes. The side channels hold the fabric securely, minimising gaps, movement and noise in the wind while maintaining a clean, architectural look.

  • Additional privacy from neighbouring properties

About the
Seller

Redgraves Home Fabrics – your specialist for custom curtains, blinds, shutters and soft furnishings.

For more than 60 years, Redgraves has been the quiet specialist behind Auckland’s most considered homes and architect‑led projects, crafting made‑to‑measure curtains, blinds, shutters and soft furnishings that perform as well as they look. From mill to home, every project is handled by our experienced in‑house team, so you can rely on consistent quality, clear advice and a seamless process from first conversation to final install.

Architects, interior designers and homeowners choose Redgraves when detail matters. Our consultants understand plans, sections and site constraints, and are used to working with recesses, pockets, bespoke joinery and automation to ensure window treatments integrate cleanly with the architecture. This technical knowledge reduces risk around specification, tolerances and installation, giving you confidence that the design intent will be protected all the way through to completion.​

At Redgraves, we believe that good design need cost no more – it’s about thoughtful choices, enduring quality and a personalised approach that makes every space feel balanced and uniquely your own. Our Textile Gallery brings together a curated library of leading local and international fabrics, selected for their integrity, longevity and design relevance – not just volume. Whether you are documenting a complex new build, refreshing a single room or working room‑by‑room over time, we help you quickly narrow in on the right options for light, privacy, acoustics, thermal performance and budget.

Redgraves manages the full journey for you: measure, design, fabrication and professional installation are all coordinated by our own specialist team, not anonymous contractors. This end‑to‑end approach means one point of contact, better communication on timing and site access, and a finished result that aligns with both specification and client expectations.

Homeowners often tell us they value how supported they feel throughout the process – from the moment they walk into the showroom, through in‑home consultations, to the day the installers leave everything spotless. For professionals, that same responsiveness, problem‑solving and pride in workmanship helps protect their reputation and keeps projects moving smoothly.

Whether this is your first renovation or your fiftieth project, Redgraves is here to guide you. Share your plans, visit our Textile Gallery or book an in‑home or on‑site consultation, and our knowledgeable team will help you make confident decisions at every step
