A Retracting and Folding Louvre System  

SunFold® the latest edition to the Bask Outdoor Living range is a NZ designed and manufactured Retracting and Folding Louvre Roof. With the ability to be fully closed, partially open and pivoted, or fully retracted and stacked to one side, SunFold provides the ultimate flexibility and control of a outdoor living space.

Custom made in NZ, the roof can be fixed onto virtually all styles and shapes of homes and can be configured in Wall mounted, Freestanding and Integrated roof options. Features include the ability to partially tilt and retract louvres blades to control light and airflow, to retract the roof up to 75% of the roof area or tightly close for weather protection.

The use of German linear and Italian made tubular motors represent the best available to operate our systems and the unique End Pivot (EP) technology ensures for more weather resistance and the aluminium legs not only provide support for the louvre roof, but contain and hide the downpipes for drainage which along with the support beams on the Bask outdoor living systems that have been specially designed to accommodate and hide guttering for drainage, add to a overall sleek architectural finish.

The SunFold and its side beams are also designed to accommodate additional features such as LED lighting and additional side screens such as drop down awnings, Glaslide® glass sliding doors and aluminium sliding screens. This Louvre Roof system comes finished from the extensive range of Dulux powder coat colours to enable the right colour can be found to complement any joinery, and enables a SunPivot Louvre Roof to seamlessly blend in and add style to a home.

Reliability

To ensure utmost reliability and minimal maintenance, we have selected only the best German linear motor and Italian tubular motor to operate our louvre systems.

EP Technology

To provide a more weather resistant roof seal, our unique louvre blades use End Pivot (EP) technology to sit only a few centimetres above the gutter when closed.

Integrated Gutter

To reduce rainwater leaks and provide a clean, seamless look, we have integrated the gutter into the outer beam, which also provides additional structural strength.

Gutter Box

We avoid ugly silicone gutter corner joints with our exclusive solid aluminium gutter box and cover plates.

Hidden Pipes

To provide an architectural finish, when the design includes a support post, we run gutter drain pipes down inside the post.

Screen System

To increase functionality of your louvre roof we have integrated (into the outer beam) an optional drop down screen system.

Both the SunFold® and SunPivot® louvre roofs come with a range of features and additional add-ons that help create a bespoke entertainment area that will protect you from the elements and have you enjoying the outdoors in any season.

The louvres can be adjusted to control light and provide shade not only under the roof, but also for adjacent rooms

Wall Series Louvre Roofs are fixed to a structural exterior wall, supporting the roof without the need for support columns (against the wall), that may obstruct windows, doors or walkways. This is especially useful for small or awkward spaces and opens up a world of choices for outdoor living areas.
