Retract Roof
We think our Retractable Opening Roofs and Sun Louvre systems are pretty clever. Providing homeowners and buildings with the additional feature of being able to retract the louvres back when you want to enjoy the sky above and then extend them back in to place when you want a comfortable haven.
Years in the making working collaboratively with Advanced Design Innovations, engineers and the Louvretec design team have ensured the retract roof is of a premium standard.
- Two new Retractable Opening Roofs, including a new frame and extra wide gutter system.
- A range of retractable configurations to customise your installation to suit your style. Choose from either a three sided open end design with the louvres stack up one way or four sided design with one way or centre opening options.
- Louvre design incorporates a unique cushion closing feature enhancing the smooth quiet operation and combined with superior blade overlap and you have a very watertight shading solution.
- System is motorised by powerful twin Somfy Tubular motors, a multi-purpose Louvretec controller comes as standard. The system can also be configured for home automation technology.

We would advise you to check with your local council before any work starts. Under the National Construction Code, Louvretec roofs are classed as 10a Permeable Minor Structures and your Council can inform you of any regulations that apply in particular to your property and inform you about the building application process. Factors like boundary set-backs, fire wall separation, structure height and weather you are replacing an existing structure or starting new can impact on your design and approval progress. We can assist with your application and create all the plans, drawings and drafting your application. Talk to us about your plans. For further information:
