The South Australian Museum, located at North Terrace, Adelaide, SA, has recently enhanced its outdoor areas with the installation of the innovative Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' self-standing and motorised retractable shade structure.
This project showcases the versatility and functionality of the Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo', making it an ideal solution for both commercial and residential applications.
The Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' model features a modular framed structure with a variety of bolt-together aluminium joiner connectors, allowing for the best frame configuration to suit specific site conditions. This makes it perfectly suited for a range of commercial applications, such as outdoor areas, public plazas and dining spaces. With a wide selection of fabrics and colour options available, the Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' seamlessly complements all architectural styles, from contemporary buildings to traditional structures.
Constructed from lightweight yet robust aluminium posts, beams and running tracks, the Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' allows for easy bolt-together installation. The aluminium components can be powder-coated in a multitude of colours to fit the surrounding decor, including the Colorbond® steel colour range. For additional versatility, side blinds can also be added if required.
Installed at the historically significant South Australian Museum, the Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' retractable shade structure not only provides practical shading but also enhances the aesthetic appeal of the museum's outdoor areas. The self-standing aluminium posts are fixed to the existing concrete slab, ensuring a stable and secure installation.
To provide respite from the harsh sun, the stylish Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' retractable sail system features a smooth motorised operation using Somfy RTS Motor, ensuring practical and controllable shade on demand. The stainless steel ball-bearing runner wheels ensure smooth operation, while the retracting and extending system provides effortless shading at the touch of a button.
The Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' is constructed using only the most robust components, including custom-designed aluminium tracks and framework, stainless steel roller-bearing wheels and marine-grade fittings. This ensures years of trouble-free shading with minimal maintenance. The structure is manufactured from a range of rigorously tested fabrics, from 95 percent polyester mesh to waterproof PVC. Each fabric is mould resistant and offers protection from glare and the sun's harmful rays, with a wide range of colours available. The Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' comes with a 10-year manufacturer's warranty on fabric under tension and UV degradation, a 10-year structural warranty, and a 5-year warranty on workmanship and fittings.
The unique qualities of the Shaderunner® Trax 'Pergo' enable it to be utilised for a multitude of applications, from small public spaces to large commercial projects such as aquatic parks and hotels. The modular design and customisable features make it a versatile solution for any outdoor shading needs.
