Exclusive Awnings and Ideal Awnings are one enterprise — a manufacturing house that has served South Africa since 1984. Today we operate as the national distributor of every kind of awning to homes, restaurants and businesses across the continent.
We still fabricate every custom awning in-house and install through our accredited team to Architectural and Structural Engineering specification. Speak to Rione, our Office Manager, or Ryno, our Production Manager, for advice on pricing and specification.
