Local experience. Available nationwide.
The Outdoor Shade Factory is a dedicated online shop operated by SUNGUARD LIMITED, the company behind SunGuard NZ.
For nearly 10 years, SunGuard has been supplying and installing shade products across Auckland, earning a 4.9-star Google rating from 750+ reviews along the way. We created The Outdoor Shade Factory to bring the same hands-on product knowledge and quality NZ-made products to customers nationwide in a simple supply-only format.
Real experience behind the website
We don’t just sell these products online. Our team works with outdoor blinds, awnings and shade systems every day and understands how they measure, fit and perform in real-life installations.
If you need help choosing the right option or working through an installation detail, you’ll be talking to people who genuinely know the systems.
Backed by established NZ manufacturing
Our products are made in New Zealand and backed by an established local manufacturer with decades of industry experience.
That means proven components, reliable production systems and ongoing product support.
Around 4 weeks for most orders
Most orders in standard colours are ready in approximately 4 weeks.
Custom powder coating and other non-standard options may require additional time.
Practical support when you need it
Buying supply-only doesn’t mean you’re on your own.
We can help with product selection, measuring guidance and practical installation tips - backed by real experience installing these systems ourselves.
Why buy online?
Many outdoor shade products are straightforward to measure and install if you’re comfortable with DIY or already have a builder or installer.
Our online model keeps the process simple: clear pricing, easy ordering and nationwide access to quality NZ-made products, without the need for an on-site sales appointment.
Prefer us to measure and install?
If you’re in Auckland and would rather leave everything to the professionals, SunGuard NZ offers a complete measure, supply and installation service.
