At Suncraft, we make planning your shade simple. Our simulation app uses your site measurements and local sun angles to show how your shade will look throughout the day and year.

Take your shade system to the next level with smart automation. Designed for New Zealand’s often windy conditions, our motorised systems are wind rated up to 40 km/h and can be automated to respond to changing weather, giving you flexibility and peace of mind, whether you're home or away.

In conjunction with the weather station, you can also install a wall control for easy manual operation and see real-time weather data firsthand.
A wind and sun sensor lets your system open in sun and close in strong wind. You can also set timers with the remote to match your daily routine.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
Our height adjustment feature gives you control over shade and privacy as the sun moves throughout the day. Choose from three options to suit your setup: electric for automated control, a manual winch for smooth handling, or a simple slider for quick, hands-on adjustment. Each option is designed for ease of use and reliable performance.
