Canvas patio blinds with clear windows made by Foam and Upholstery Centre, Pretoria

Made to measure in Pretoria

Every awning and blind is cut and sewn to the sizes you give us, for patios, stoeps and verandas. Because we only manufacture, you get a workshop-made product and keep the choice of who fits it.

The patio blinds in the photo above have clear windows sewn in, so you keep the view while the canvas keeps out sun and wind.

Choose your canvas and colour

Awnings and blinds are made from the canvas we stock:

  • Cotton canvas or polyester ripstop canvas
  • Weights of 300gsm, 420gsm or 510gsm
  • 15 colours: Ecru, Sand, Beige, Olive Green, Howard Green, Rust, Taupe, Dark Brown, Red, Navy Blue, Light Grey, Dove Grey, Charcoal, Dark Grey and Black

More on the fabric: canvas material for sale and our guide canvas or PVC for covers, awnings and canopies.

How ordering works

  1. Measure the opening. For blinds, the width and the drop; for awnings, the width and how far it must project. If an installer is fitting it, ask them to measure so the sizes match their fixing method.
  2. Choose the canvas, weight and colour.
  3. Request a quote. Send your measurements and a photo of the area through the quotation form, or call 012 327 0061.
  4. We make it in our workshop and let you know when it is ready.
