× Waikato Shutters & Blinds
We've partnered with markilux — one of Germany's most awarded awning manufacturers — to bring a new level of design and engineering to outdoor living across Hamilton and the wider Waikato.
Every markilux awning is designed and manufactured at the company's own facility in Germany, to exacting engineering tolerances rather than mass-market standards.
markilux's range has picked up multiple German Design Awards and Red Dot awards — recognition for products that are engineered as carefully as they're styled.
Nothing is off the shelf. Frame colour, fabric, lighting and motorisation are specified for your space, using components designed to perform for years, not seasons.
You still deal with the same local team you already trust for advice, accurate measuring, and professional installation — markilux is simply a new option on the table.
We've hand-picked a starting range across three categories, each suited to a different kind of outdoor space. Every awning shown here is available through WSB — get in touch and we'll help you narrow it down.
Retractable shade for decks, patios and outdoor entertaining areas.
02 — Larger living areasGuide-rail supported systems for greater coverage and stability.
03 — Glazed roofsPurpose-built shade and heat control for conservatories.
Retractable awnings designed to create flexible shade over decks, patios and outdoor entertaining areas — the most popular category for Waikato homes.
Sculptural curves and a full colour palette make the MX-3 the standout choice for patios and balconies that want to make a statement.
Sleek, understated and endlessly adaptable — the 970's clean lines suit everything from compact courtyards to city-view terraces.
markilux's flagship folding-arm model — "Germany's Topmodel" — built for grand terraces, with the option of polished chrome detailing.
A generously proportioned cassette awning for large terraces, where the whole family — and their guests — can gather comfortably in the shade.
Retractable fabric shade systems supported by guide rails and posts — suited to outdoor living areas where greater coverage, projection and stability are needed.
The most compact of the pergola range — ideal where space is tight but the stability of a true guide-rail pergola is still what's called for.
A purist, cubic silhouette with lighting built into the posts and footplates — as striking after dark as it is by day.
Built for scale — coupled panels can shade up to 25 metres of coverage, making it a favourite for larger entertaining and hospitality areas.
Specialised awnings designed to provide shade and heat control for glazed roofs, conservatories and similar covered spaces.
Mounted above the glass roof, the 770 intercepts the sun before it ever reaches your conservatory — keeping the space naturally cooler.
Fitted beneath the glass, the 679 pairs a clean cubic cassette with striking integrated LED lighting for evenings under the roof.
That's what we're here for. Tell us about your space, your budget and how you'll use it — we'll narrow the markilux range down to the two or three options that actually make sense, then measure and quote from there.
A deck, a balcony, a conservatory, an outdoor kitchen — every markilux model suits a different setting.
Just like the rest of our range, choosing a markilux starts with a conversation and an accurate on-site measure — not a spec sheet.
One quote, one local team, one point of contact from first enquiry through to a professional install.
Enquire now and the Waikato Shutters & Blinds team will be in touch to talk through the range, arrange a measure, and put together a quote for your markilux awning.
