Residential Shade Structures
Providing greater protection than shade sails and umbrellas, Creative Canvas’s non-retractable shade structures are a versatile and cost-effective method of permanently shading or waterproofing your residential and commercial outdoor areas.
Our range of non-retractable, residential shade structures include:
- Tension Structures – innovative, flexible, self-supporting and cost-effective waterproof shading alternative to a traditional, welded frame structure.
- Hip Roof Shade Structures – a strong, stable design that creates height with maximum coverage, ideal for protecting cars, boats and caravans.
- Doorway and Patio Structures – translucent, long-lasting and leak-proof structural covers for doorways and patios, designed to compliment both modern and traditional architectural styles of homes.
Tension Structures
By eliminating many of the costs and difficulties encountered when designing a traditional, welded frame structure, Triax Tension Awnings provide a simple and more flexible way to create affordable, high-quality, long-lasting, wind-rated and waterproof external shade structures.
Because the innovative Triax Tension Awnings system can be joined at any angle, on-site, without welding, Triax structures can be custom tailored and built with exacting precision in a fraction of the time and with none of the hassle of a fully welded or prefabricated structure.
Triax Tension awnings can be wall-mounted, roof-mounted or free-standing and they won’t compromise the structural integrity of the existing building they are attached to. Gutters, clear drop blinds, heaters and lighting can all be added on.
Hip Roof Shade Structures

Doorway and Patio Structures
Carb-o-lite Doorway and Patio Structures are translucent, lightweight, long-lasting, tough, versatile and leak-proof structural covers for doorways and patios.
Bullnose Patio Covers are designed to suit more traditional and older style houses, while Flat Patio Covers complement the modern straight lines in today’s modern architecture and are often attached on a 4-5 degree fall to allow water to run off.
The modern curved design of Barrel Vault Awnings allow a natural breeze to occur in areas with limited space, with Gable Pitched Roofs giving a traditional finished look for backyard patio covers.
All styles of patio covers can have gutters attached and all frames are engineered to comply with Australian Wind Load Standards.
