Detailed Description
Cream shade above the window, the balcony or the terrace. The Persienne is the lightest-toned manual retractable awning in the Shadelys range: a cream canopy that filters the overhead light rather than blocking it, installed at any height between 200cm and 300cm, extending to a maximum projection of 120cm, and operated by a 125cm hand crank that fits on either side to suit your space. It covers a terrace or balcony in the conventional awning sense, and mounted directly above a window it softens the quality of the light entering the room rather than eliminating it entirely. Two frame finishes available: white frame for the most seamless integration with light exterior palettes, and anthracite frame for a defined contrast against pale render or cladding.
The steel frame provides the structural rigidity required across the full range of available widths, holding the canopy flat and taut at full extension without flex at the outer edge. The 100% polyester canopy with PU coating is water and dirt repellent, UV-resistant and rated for high lightfastness, meaning the cream tone holds its warmth through sustained outdoor exposure without yellowing or shifting toward a dull off-white. The canopy is fully removable and machine washable, allowing the fabric to be cleaned at the start and end of each season rather than wiped in place. On a light-toned canopy exposed to the Australian summer, that washability is not a minor convenience but a meaningful difference in the awning's long-term appearance.
The 125cm crank handle reaches the awning comfortably from standing height. Left or right installation is set at assembly with no adaptor required, and the canopy angle adjusts to suit the pitch needed for your specific sun exposure and weather protection requirements.
The Persienne is available in multiple widths across two frame finishes. Regardless of the configuration selected, the maximum projection remains 120cm and the installation height adjusts between 200cm and 300cm, covering most standard window and fascia heights without modification. Select the width and frame finish that suit your space using the options above.
The 120cm projection positions the Persienne as the right choice for compact outdoor spaces, balconies and window-adjacent installations where a larger motorised awning would extend too far into the available area. For entertaining terraces and larger patio areas requiring a deeper projection and motorised operation, the Brise offers the same cream tone in a 4m wide motorised format with 300cm projection.
Maximum projection: 120 cm
Installation height: 200-300 cm | Support bar: 16mm diameter | Crank length: 125cm | Left or right crank installation
For shade coverage across open areas beyond the awning, our Cantilever Umbrellas and Shade Sails collections offer complementary freestanding options. To compare with the anthracite version of this awning, see the Volet.
Cream is the awning colour that integrates most naturally across the widest range of Australian home styles. Against white or light render it extends the building's exterior palette outward without introducing contrast. Against red brick or sandstone it softens the façade tone rather than sharpening it. Above a dark timber balcony railing or a contemporary powder-coated steel frame, it provides the lightness that keeps the compact outdoor space feeling open rather than enclosed.
Above a window, the cream canopy produces a quality of indoor light that neither a dark awning nor an unshaded window can replicate. Direct summer sun filtered through cream polyester enters the room as a warm, diffused glow rather than a harsh beam, reducing glare and indoor heat without the darkness of a solid blind or the full exposure of an uncovered pane. In the Australian context, where north and west-facing windows receive the most intense sun through summer, that filtering quality is a genuine thermal and visual comfort advantage over the full range of daylight hours.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the umbrella come with a base?
The umbrella includes a 100 x 100 cm aluminium cross base. The cross base is not a complete weighted base: a compatible ballast or anchoring system is required and sold separately.
The Holdfast Base Weight Kit is designed for compatible cross bases and provides up to approximately 100 kg of added ballast when fully filled with dry sand. Always follow the installation instructions and close the canopy during strong or gusty winds and whenever the umbrella is left unattended.
Can the umbrella be used in windy conditions?
The upper vent allows some air to pass through the canopy, but the umbrella is not windproof and no tested wind-speed rating is stated for this product.
Use the umbrella only with a compatible ballast or anchoring system. Close the canopy during strong or gusty winds, whenever it is left unattended and before moving the base.
How should I care for the canopy?
The polyester canopy with PA coating can be cleaned using a soft cloth, mild soap and water. Prolonged exposure to sunlight and outdoor conditions can gradually affect any fabric colour, so closing and covering the umbrella when it is not in use can help preserve its appearance. Allow the canopy to dry fully before folding or storing it.
What size table can the umbrella cover?
Shade coverage depends on the canopy diameter of the specific model — refer to the product dimensions listed above. As the pole is positioned to the side, the entire area beneath the canopy remains free from a central mast, allowing flexible furniture placement below. The circular canopy profile centres naturally above round outdoor dining tables and poolside lounge settings.
Actual shade coverage varies depending on sun angle and umbrella position throughout the day. Where fitted, the tilt function allows you to adjust the canopy angle to maintain effective coverage as the sun moves.
How do I choose the right canopy colour?
Choose a canopy colour that complements the furniture, flooring and finishes already present in your outdoor space. Neutral shades can blend easily with timber, stone and metal furniture, while darker or lighter options can create more contrast. Colours may appear slightly different depending on natural light and screen settings.

How to Install Your Retractable Awning
STEP 1
Check your wall and plan your bracket position
Before purchasing or assembling, confirm that your chosen installation surface is solid masonry, structural timber or steel capable of bearing the weight of the awning and the load applied by wind on the extended canopy. Lightweight cladding, hollow-core walls, guttering and non-structural fascia are not suitable mounting surfaces.
Mark the bracket positions on the wall at the correct height for your installation. Most models allow height adjustment after mounting, but the bracket fixing point determines the usable range. Ensure the surface is smooth and flat at the fixing points for correct bracket contact and load distribution. Wall mounting hardware is not included with the awning and must be sourced separately based on your wall type.
STEP 2
Mount the bracket and assemble the awning
Fix the mounting brackets securely to the wall at the marked positions using fasteners rated for the wall material and load. Once the brackets are in place, attach the awning frame to the brackets following the supplied assembly instructions. Extend the awning fully using the crank or chain mechanism to check that the canopy opens evenly and that the frame arms extend without obstruction.
Adjust the canopy angle and installation height to suit your outdoor space and the sun angle you want to block. Retract the awning fully after installation to confirm the mechanism retracts cleanly and the canopy folds without bunching. If in doubt about your wall type or load capacity, consult a qualified installer or builder before proceeding.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I install a retractable awning safely?
Mount the awning to a solid wall, structural fascia or beam using fasteners rated for the surface material and load. Every bracket fixing point must be anchored into solid masonry, structural timber or steel. Do not mount to lightweight cladding, hollow walls, guttering or non-structural surfaces. Wall mounting hardware is not included with any awning in the Shadelys range. If you are unsure whether your wall is suitable, consult a qualified installer before proceeding.
How do I choose the right awning colour?
Choose a canopy colour that complements the exterior finishes, cladding and furniture already present in your outdoor space. Neutral tones such as cream and taupe integrate naturally across most Australian home styles, from coastal to contemporary to heritage. Anthracite creates a stronger contrast and provides deeper shade by absorbing more overhead light. Striped combinations such as blue and white introduce pattern and a coastal character. For window installations, note that darker tones block more light from entering the room, while lighter tones diffuse it. Colours may appear slightly different depending on natural light and screen settings.
How do I choose the right awning size?
Measure the width of the area you want to shade, from wall edge to wall edge or post to post, and select the awning width that best matches your span. For projection, consider how far from the wall the shade needs to extend to cover your outdoor dining or lounge area effectively. Most motorised models in the Shadelys range offer a projection of up to 300cm, suited to full alfresco and patio coverage. Manual models offer a shorter projection suited to balconies, windows and compact outdoor spaces. Refer to the individual product page for the specific width and projection of each model.
Can I install a retractable awning without drilling into walls?
Standard retractable awnings require the mounting brackets to be fixed into a solid wall or structural surface. Freestanding awning frames mounted on weighted posts are an alternative where wall drilling is not possible, but no freestanding mounting option is included in the Shadelys awning range. For shade solutions that require no wall fixing at all, our Cantilever Umbrellas and Shade Sails collections provide freestanding alternatives suited to open outdoor areas.
What fabric options are available in the Shadelys awning range?
Awnings in the Shadelys range use either PU coated polyester or PA coated polyester fabric, depending on the model. PU (polyurethane) coated fabric provides water resistance, UV resistance and enhanced everyday durability. PA (polyamide) coated fabric provides UV and water resistance with a lightweight construction. Refer to the individual product page for the specific fabric type, weight and care instructions for each model. Some models feature a removable and machine washable canopy; others are cleaned in place with a damp cloth.
Are retractable awnings weather resistant?
All awnings in the Shadelys range use UV-resistant and water-resistant fabric construction suitable for normal Australian outdoor conditions. The canopy fabric handles direct sunlight and light to moderate rainfall without saturating. No awning in this range is rated as fully waterproof under prolonged heavy rainfall, and none carries a tested wind-speed rating. Always retract the awning during strong or gusty winds, heavy rain, and whenever it is left unattended for extended periods.
