Aluminium louvre roofs, pergolas and patio covers for homes from Melkbosstrand to Paternoster, built to handle the summer south-easter and salt air.
Free site visit · Lifetime corrosion guarantee · 3–5 week lead time
North of Melkbosstrand, the R27 runs up a flat, open coast to Langebaan, then on to the Saldanha Bay towns and Paternoster. Little stands in the way of the summer south-easter, salt mist drifts in off the Atlantic, and there is not much natural shade. At a holiday home, the weather keeps working on the cover while nobody is there.
In Langebaan we fitted a charcoal louvre roof with LED downlights and drop blinds on its open sides. Two more louvre roofs went up in Melkbosstrand, and a fourth covers the patio of an exposed West Coast property. All four were fabricated in Cape Town and installed by our own team.

Three pergola families, lined patio ceilings, fixed awnings and carports, all built for Western Cape conditions.
On this coast the wind can arrive fast and side-on, and salt settles on anything left outside. For the exposed West Coast job that meant marine-grade aluminium in every member, with no ferrous metal in the structure, so there is nothing to rust and nothing to repaint. On a calm day the blades open right up. When the weather turns they close, and the roof is about 95% weatherproof, with an integrated gutter carrying the run-off away.
In Langebaan, drop blinds come down over the open sides when the wind picks up, and concealed LED downlights keep the roof in use after dark. One of the two Melkbosstrand roofs is motorised and has a ceiling fan for still summer days, with the fan point and wiring built into the beam before powder coating. The other pairs a bronze frame with white blades that turn by hand, so nothing electrical sits out in the sea air.

What a fantastic experience. The new louvre awning has made such a difference to our outdoor space and has honestly exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail during the installation was excellent, and the whole team was friendly, respectful, and easy to deal with. It looks like it was always meant to be part of the house. Thank you for a job well done!
We were looking for a modern, low-maintenance patio cover that suited our home in Stellenbosch, and this was exactly what we wanted. The finish is beautiful, the installation was neat, and communication throughout the project was excellent. It’s given us a space we can enjoy all year round. We would definitely use Aluminium Awnings again.
Aluminium Awnings Cape Town enclosed our Constantia patio with a manual louvre roof, full white, with aluminium doors and windows all round, and it's honestly become our favourite part of the house. We use it right through winter now. The rain and the wind don't get in, and it's so easy to wind the louvres open when the sun comes out. Neat, tidy install with a friendly team, and the white finish looks really clean against the house. Couldn't be happier, highly recommend.
Ryan and his team were awesome and really went the extra mile to make our awning perfect! Can definitely recommend them!
Very happy with the replacement of our awning after it got damaged in the May storm. More sturdy and stronger
We recently had a louvre awning installed by Aluminium Awnings at our home in Durbanville, and we’re so pleased with the result. The quality of the workmanship is excellent, and the finished product has completely transformed our outdoor space. The team was professional, arrived on time, and kept us informed throughout the installation. We looked at a few different companies before deciding, and we’re really glad we chose Aluminium Awnings. If you’re considering louvre awnings in Cape Town, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

Aluminium Awnings is so professional from start to finish. They make the process easy and understandable from day 1. The quality of their work is outstanding, we are so happy! I highly recommend them!
Absolutely thrilled with our new louvre awning from Aluminium Awnings. From start to finish, the service was professional, the installation was neat, and the finished product looks incredible. We’re based in Blouberg, so we wanted something that would work well with the coastal conditions and strong winds, while still giving us control over the sunlight and shade. The louvre awning has completely transformed the outside area and the quality of the aluminium structure and finish is excellent. Would definitely recommend Aluminium Awnings to anyone in Blouberg or Cape Town looking for a quality louvre awning. Very happy with the end result!
