A fully retractable shade system that’s ideal for flexible urban living
Shaderunner® Australia recently completed the installation of the Shaderunner® Trax ‘Mono’ Under-Mount Retractable Shade System for a luxurious apartment in the heart of Adelaide’s CBD. Located on the top floor of the exclusive Ergo Apartments, it features a spacious deluxe balcony that now allows the occupants to enjoy the outdoors while remaining shaded from the sun.
The client requested a flexible, easy to use, fully retractable shading solution and the Shaderunner® Trax ‘Mono’ system ticked all of the boxes. What’s more, it perfectly complements the apartment’s modern design and with its 5.6m wide by 2.6m extension provides ample coverage.
Designed for easy installation, this system attaches seamlessly to existing structures with minimal support. With its 40mm by 40mm aluminium tracks, it can be mounted to the inside face of any steel or timber structure. It can also be attached to other structures with the addition of an aluminium angle, or it can be directly attached under support beams.
Built using the most durable materials, the Shaderunner® Trax ‘Mono’ system features custom-designed aluminium tracks and supports, marine-grade stainless steel fittings, and roller bearing wheels. These robust components ensure smooth, reliable operation with minimal maintenance. The lightweight but strong aluminium components can be powdercoated to match the colour of the existing structure to which they will be attached.
The beauty of the Shaderunner® Trax ‘Mono’ system lies not only in its functionality but also in its simplicity. While a motorised option is available, the system showcased here is manually operated. The endless cord and horn cleat mechanism ensures smooth operation, giving the homeowners complete control over the shade. Whether the balcony is used for outdoor entertaining, relaxation, or simply enjoying the view of the city, the retractable system offers shade when needed and can be neatly retracted when not in use.
In addition to providing shade on demand, the Shaderunner® Trax ‘Mono’ system offers year-round usability. During the warmer months, the shade can be extended to provide protection from the sun, while in cooler months, it can be retracted to allow the sun’s warmth to heat the space, providing thermal comfort. The system is also capable of spanning up to 4m wide between rafters, or up to 7m with an under-mounted setup, and even wider spans can be achieved with multiple bays.
Whether for residential balconies, terraces, courtyards, patios or large commercial applications, the Shaderunner® retractable shade system is the ideal solution for anyone seeking an efficient, attractive, and customisable retractable shade system.
Shaderunner® Australia offers a wide range of fabrics, colours, and customisations to meet the needs of every project. Whether you’re enhancing a small residential space or outfitting a large commercial area, Shaderunner® provides the perfect shading solution tailored to your requirements.
