What we build

Aluminium Awnings designs, fabricates and installs outdoor structures across the Western Cape — from a single louvre roof over a patio in Constantia to multi-bay aluminium pergolas and lined patio ceilings for estates, restaurants and developers. Same shop, same crew end-to-end: we take a brief, plan it carefully, fabricate in our Cape Town workshop and install it on your site.

We work in two material families. Aluminium — powder-coated, marine-grade extrusion, lifetime corrosion guarantee — for pergolas, louvre roofs and patio ceilings where longevity and a clean architectural line matter. Composite — UV-stable, low-maintenance, timber-look — for pergolas where you want the warmth of wood without the maintenance.

Why us

Built for the Cape.

Imported structures don't last on the Atlantic Seaboard. The Cape Doctor regularly exceeds 80 km/h. Salt-laden air corrodes anything ferrous within a season. UV intensity bleaches plastics. Every product we build is specified for these conditions specifically.

No steel anywhere in the structure. Marine-grade aluminium extrusion. Baked-enamel coatings that resist chips and salt. IP65 motor housings on every motorised installation. Stainless fasteners throughout. Backed by a lifetime corrosion guarantee on all aluminium products.

Marine-grade aluminium extrusion — no ferrous metal in the structure
Baked-enamel and powder-coat finishes rated for Atlantic salt air
Built to handle Cape Doctor wind loads — coastal-grade construction
Lifetime corrosion guarantee, 10-year structural, 2-year workmanship

FAQ

Common questions

What's the difference between a louvre roof and an extruded pergola?
A louvre roof has rotating aluminium blades you can open and close — sky and breeze when you want it, near-watertight cover when you don't. An extruded pergola has a fixed roof — solid aluminium, glass or polycarbonate panels with integrated drainage. Choose louvre when you want adjustability and ventilation; choose extruded when you want a permanent fixed cover.
Aluminium or composite — which should I choose?
Aluminium is the right call when you want a clean architectural line, the longest possible lifespan and low maintenance — backed by our lifetime corrosion guarantee. Composite is the right call when you want the warmth and look of timber without the sanding, sealing or splintering.
How long does an installation take?
Residential pergolas and louvre roofs are typically one to two days on site. Patio ceilings are one to three days depending on area. Total lead time from accepted quote to project sign-off is 3–5 weeks — fabrication, powder-coat, install and clean-up.
Where do you install?
Cape Town and the Western Cape — Atlantic Seaboard, Southern Suburbs, Northern Suburbs, the Winelands, Whale Coast and the Garden Route as far as Knysna and Sedgefield. Coastal installations are our specialty.

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 Snupit

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.

Annelize Hello Peter

Got a few quotes and Aluminium Awnings were the most professional by far. Lance talked us through all the options without any pressure and the stoep looks amazing now.

Lucas J Hello Peter

We use our braai area so much more now thanks to Aluminium Awnings. Lekker quality and the guys were friendly.

Guarantees & terms

Built to Last, Backed in Writing

  1. All quotations, product information, images, specifications and estimated lead times on this website are provided for general information purposes only and may be subject to change without notice. Final pricing, finishes, measurements, fixing methods, drainage details and structural requirements are confirmed only once an official quotation has been accepted in writing and the required deposit has been paid.
  2. Lifetime Aluminium Corrosion Guarantee. Effective for installations completed on or after 1 June 2026; installations completed before 1 June 2026 carry the previous 15-year aluminium corrosion guarantee. Applies to qualifying marine-grade aluminium components supplied and installed by Aluminium Awnings and covers corrosion failure under normal residential use, provided the product is cleaned and maintained correctly. It does not cover powder-coating fade, surface staining, scratches, coastal salt build-up, chemical damage, neglected maintenance, steel contamination, impact, storm damage, misuse, alterations, or corrosion caused by third-party materials, fixings or contractors.
  3. Composite Guarantee. Composite pergola beams carry a product guarantee of 10 to 25 years depending on the profile — Beam Air solid composite beams 15–25 years, Beam Pro hybrid aluminium-core composite finish 10 years — provided they are installed to specification and maintained as set out in our care guide. It covers manufacturing defects in the composite; it excludes the natural colour variation and gentle mellowing of a timber-look product, misuse, alteration, impact, and damage from failure to clean and maintain.
  4. 10-Year Structural Guarantee. Effective for installations completed on or after 1 June 2026; installations completed before 1 June 2026 have no structural guarantee. Covers the structural integrity of qualifying pergolas, louvre roofs and patio ceilings installed by Aluminium Awnings, provided the structure has not been altered, overloaded, damaged, neglected, incorrectly maintained, or affected by movement in the existing building, walls, foundations or waterproofing. It excludes extreme weather events, abnormal wind loads, flooding, falling objects, accidental damage, unauthorised modifications, or failure of existing structures to which the product is fixed.
  5. 2-Year Workmanship Guarantee. Effective for installations completed on or after 1 June 2026; installations completed before 1 June 2026 carry the previous 1-year workmanship guarantee. Covers installation-related defects caused by Aluminium Awnings workmanship. It does not include normal wear and tear, blocked gutters, lack of cleaning, sealant deterioration from poor maintenance, damage caused by other contractors, electrical faults, motor failures, misuse, storm damage, or issues caused by the client's existing structure, waterproofing, paving, plaster, paintwork, tiles, plumbing or electrical services.
  6. Basic maintenance is required to keep all guarantees valid. Aluminium surfaces, gutters, drainage points and louvre channels should be cleaned regularly with clean water, a soft cloth or sponge and a mild non-abrasive soap. Coastal, high-wind, dusty and tree-lined properties may require more frequent cleaning. Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive pads, acidic cleaners, or high-pressure washing directly on seals or motors. Gutters, outlets and drainage points must be kept clear.
  7. Motorised louvre systems, lighting, automation and electrical components must be used correctly and maintained according to supplier guidelines. Electrical connections must be completed by a qualified electrician where required. Supplier warranties on motors, remotes, electronics, lighting, powder coating, sheeting or third-party components remain subject to the relevant manufacturer's warranty terms.
  8. Lead times are estimates only and may be affected by supplier stock, powder coating, weather, access, engineering, client approvals, third-party contractors or delays outside our control. Total lead time from accepted quotation to project sign-off is typically 3–5 weeks. Deposits may be non-refundable once materials have been ordered, manufactured, cut, powder coated or allocated to a project.
