This is the most popular of all the traditional style external awnings.
The most popular of all the traditional style external awnings, the Auto Guide Awning, sometimes known as the Automatic Awning or Lock Arm Awning, is as common in Adelaide homes as a Hills Hoist!
The awning is raised and lowered to whatever position you want, by simply sliding the arms on the guide rods. This flexibility lets you control how much light and heat comes through the window.
Available in a number of projections, Auto Guide Awnings allow air flow, whilst still sitting close enough to windows to minimise light and heat entering your home. The auto locking arms allow the awning to be secured at any height and can be adjusted by hand or with a pull-stick. Tension in the blind is maintained by a spring that sits neatly within the top aluminium roller tube.
Stan Bond Auto Guide Awnings are most often installed on the face of ground floor windows but can also be used on balcony windows or outdoor patio posts. The Awnings also come with the option of matching hooding to provide the finishing touch to your new window feature.
We particularly love the look of Auto Lock Arm awnings that use Outlook Mode mesh fabric in a single block colour, which can turn a more traditional looking awning into a modern, minimalist shading option for a contemporary home. The mesh fabric not only looks great, it allows some natural light into the home, creating a more spacious feel.
Our range of outdoor blinds is the largest in Adelaide. Come and discover the options at our Campbelltown display centre, only 10 minutes from the CBD, or talk to one of our consultants about finding the right shade blinds for your home today.
The latest range of Barrington Canvas includes a selection of colours with a grey back, rather than the traditional green back canvas. This, combined with on-trend block colours and stripes, creates a contemporary look for a traditional product.
Instead of choosing the traditional scalloped or wave trim along the bottom edge of the flap, consider a square or straight flap to give a cleaner, modern look. Combine this with a single block colour fabric, such as a dark charcoal, for the current in-fashion look.

With over 25,000 Auto Guide Awnings manufactured for South Australian homes by our team, we know what it takes to last in Australian outdoor conditions. A number of years ago, we designed a specialised aluminium top tube and bottom rail, which replaces the traditional galvanised tubes. This reduces the risk of rusting and provides a smoother paint finish. With over 45 years of experience, you can trust Stan Bond to provide a long lasting, high quality product.
With Adelaide’s largest choice of outdoor fabrics, you can choose from our broad range of colours, patterns and textures – including traditional poly-cotton canvas from Hunter Douglas and Brella, the latest generation PVC coated woven polyester mesh and acrylic fabrics.
Our Auto Guide Awning fabrics offer UV protection, reflect up to 95% of solar energy, improve airflow, and are highly durable.
Stan Bond Auto Guide Awnings can be fitted with:
Stan Bond also offers the System 2000 Auto Guide Awning, which is similar to the Standard Auto Guide Awning, but uses a different hood, arms and mounting system. It is spring-operated with steel guides fitted to the wall down both sides with sliding lock arms. This system is most suited to positions where the Standard Auto Guide is unable to be installed.
Testimonials
I had three sets of day-night blinds installed and a Veri-shade. Very happy with the total experience from Stan Bond. Professional advice, personal assistance, on time, easy to deal with. I benefited from the suggestions and care taken by each staff member. The blinds and shade look lovely and perform exactly as I had hoped.
It is so rare these days that a company offers such wonderful service and quality of product. From the very start to the very end, nothing short of pure excellence. Jenny was amazing with her suggestions and ideas, her patience very much appreciated and her ability to get the job done within limited timescales very much appreciated. This is my second experience with this company, internal shutters and curtains to go to complete my home and I will not even bother to get quotes elsewhere. Thank you Jenny, and all the team at Stan Bond - don't ever close your doors please!
We found Stan Bond to have really friendly, knowledgeable staff, they were reasonably priced, had fast turnaround and the installer was efficient and cleaned up after himself and was of minimal disruption to our office staff who were all working throughout the installation process. Very happy with the service, we would definitely use again.
