The Founder's Journey

Story of Steve & Awnings Direct

Awnings Direct was founded in 2007 in Auckland by Steve, who brought a strong technical background in mechanical engineering to the New Zealand outdoor shading industry.

Having lived and worked across Europe and Mexico, Steve observed how diverse cultures master outdoor living through functional, weather-resilient architecture. He recognized an opportunity to bring tailored, high-grade European-style shading engineering to Kiwi homes and businesses at fair, accessible rates.

Today, every awning, canopy, and outdoor curtain system is customized and built right here in New Zealand, combining exacting structural standards with modern, elegant design.

Founded in 2007

Serving Auckland homes and commercial venues for over 18 years.

Engineering Precision

Mechanical engineering principles applied to every structural awning frame.

Global Inspiration

Outdoor living expertise honed across Europe, Mexico, and New Zealand.
