Specialties
What sets us apart is that we’re genuinely hands-on from start to finish. We don’t just sell blinds, we manufacture, measure, and install everything ourselves right here on the Sunshine Coast.
Because of that, we have full control over quality and can tailor every job to suit the space properly, not just “make it fit.” With over 40 years behind the business and my own background growing up in the industry, there’s a level of experience and practical knowledge that’s hard to replicate.
We focus on doing things properly the first time, using high-quality, locally made products that are built to last in the Australian climate.
History
Established in 1983.
Kawana Blinds & Awnings is a family-owned and operated business proudly serving the Sunshine Coast for over 40 years. What started as a small local operation has grown into a trusted name for high-quality outdoor blinds and awnings.
We specialise in locally manufactured, made-to-measure products designed to suit each individual space. Every installation is backed by decades of hands-on experience, with a strong focus on durability, functionality, and clean finishes.
Built on honest advice and reliable service, we continue to deliver tailored shade solutions that stand up to the coastal climate.
Meet the Business Owner: Reid L.
I’ve grown up in the blinds and awning industry, working alongside my family in the manufacturing side of the business here on the Sunshine Coast. From an early age, I was hands-on with how our products are made, which has given me a strong understanding of quality, detail, and what actually works long-term.
At 26, I took the step of purchasing Kawana Blinds & Awnings and now run the business day to day. I still stay closely involved in both the manufacturing and installation side, making sure every job meets the standard we’re known for.
