Overberg & Whale Coast

Outdoor living, built for Overberg & Whale Coast.

The Whale Coast runs from Hermanus, Onrus and Kleinmond out to Gansbaai. It is prime sea-front and holiday-home country, with cliff-path views, strong onshore wind and a salt-laden air that punishes anything that isn't built for it.

We build coastal-grade aluminium louvre roofs, pergolas and patio ceilings colour-matched to the home and engineered for the exposure, so a sea-facing patio stays usable in the wind and rain. Fabricated in Cape Town and installed across the Overberg coast.

What we do

Six ways to cover the outdoors

One contractor for the whole outdoor space: structure, ceiling, walls and floor.

Coastal-grade aluminium outdoor structure engineered for the Western Cape
Engineered for the coast

Built for cliff-path salt and winter swells.

Hermanus takes its weather off Walker Bay: winter swells that throw spray over the cliff path, and a summer south-easter that works on everything left outside. The spec here is fully coastal, marine-grade aluminium, stainless fixings and salt-rated finishes, from Sandbaai seafronts to the wind funnels at Pringle Bay and Betty’s Bay.

Many Whale Coast homes are weekend and retirement places, so installs are built to be left alone: motorised louvres with rain and wind sensors, app control from wherever you are, and a finish that asks for nothing but a rinse. We fabricate in Cape Town and run scheduled installation trips to the Overberg.

Marine-grade aluminium (no ferrous metal)
Baked-enamel & powder-coat finishes for salt air
Stainless fasteners throughout
Engineered for Cape Doctor wind loads
IP65-rated motor housings on motorised systems

Local answers

Questions we get on the Whale Coast

Do you install in Hermanus, Gansbaai and Stanford?
Yes, the whole Whale Coast from Pringle Bay through Kleinmond, Vermont, Onrus, Hermanus and Sandbaai to Stanford and Gansbaai. We fabricate in Cape Town and group Overberg site visits and installs into scheduled runs, which keeps travel efficient.
Is Pringle Bay too windy for a louvre roof?
Pringle Bay and Betty’s Bay funnel serious wind, and we build for it: tighter spans, heavier fixings and wind sensors that close motorised blades automatically before gusts reach damaging speed. Closed louvres present a flush surface with very little for the wind to grab. Exposure is assessed on site before we spec anything.
We are only at the house some weekends. Does that work?
It works well. Rain and wind sensors run the roof when nobody is there, app control lets you check and close it from town, and aluminium needs no seasonal upkeep. Vermont and Onrus holiday homes make up a steady share of our Overberg work.
Does salt spray off Walker Bay void any guarantee?
No. The lifetime corrosion guarantee stands on the seafront, because there is no ferrous metal in the structure to corrode. Rinse the frame and blades with fresh water every month or two and the finish stays new; that is the only maintenance this coast demands.

Kim Hello Peter

So happy with our new awning. Mike from Aluminium Awnings sorted everything out for us, even the little extras we asked for at the last minute.

Christopher

Really happy with the whole experience. The team at Aluminium Awnings were on time, tidy and did exactly what they said they would. Our patio is finally usable in summer.

Hendrik Hello Peter

Aluminium Awnings Cape Town het ons heeltemal beïndruk. Die kwaliteit is uitstekend en die prys was billik. Ons sal hulle beslis aanbeveel.

Lamine Hello Peter

Beautiful job. Aluminium Awnings were neat and polite, and the install crew Vincent and Pfunzo finished exactly when they said they would. We love sitting outside now even when it drizzles.

RIAAN Hello Peter

Honestly the best money we've spent on the house. Aluminium Awnings were spot on, and where we are in Durbanville gets a lot of wind but it holds up perfectly.

Nomsa Hello Peter

From the first phone call to the final clean up Aluminium Awnings Cape Town were brilliant. So happy we found someone reliable in Bloubergstrand.

Loiz Hello Peter

The louvre roof they installed has completely changed our outdoor area. We can open it when it's sunny and close it when the rain comes in. Thanks Aluminium Awnings.
