Extend Your Outdoor Season with Crystal Clear Deck Enclosures
Stop Letting Wind and Rain Ruin Your Outdoor Relaxation
Few things are as frustrating as having a beautiful wooden deck that sits empty for most of the year due to unpredictable weather. When driving rain soaks your expensive outdoor rugs or bitter autumn winds make it impossible to enjoy a morning coffee, your valuable square footage goes to waste. Standard covers are often opaque and bulky, forcing you to choose between staying dry in the dark or being exposed to the elements just to keep your view.
Flexible Weather Protection with Unmatched Optical Clarity
Our heavy duty clear deck curtains offer a rugged yet elegant solution to transform your exposed platform into a comfortable, year round sanctuary. These custom manufactured vinyl panels provide a durable barrier against wind and precipitation while maintaining a perfect view of your landscape. For those seeking the highest level of protection, these panels work in perfect synergy with our specialized outdoor industrial curtains to create a professional, climate controlled environment. Each curtain is crafted from UV resistant PVC that remains supple in freezing temperatures and resists yellowing over time. With reinforced heat welded seams and rust proof brass grommets, this transparent solution ensures your deck stays dry, clean, and ready for guests regardless of the forecast.
Highly Specific Uses for Clear Deck Barriers
- Four Season Home Entertaining: Enclosing a residential deck to trap solar heat during the winter months, creating a warm, sunlit space for parties and family gatherings.
- Outdoor Furniture Preservation: Shielding expensive wicker and fabric seating from moisture and bird droppings to eliminate the need for constant cleaning and heavy storage.
- Coastal Salt Air Protection: Providing a clear, waterproof shield for seaside homes to prevent corrosive salt spray from damaging glass doors and metal deck railings.
- Privacy and Wind Dampening: Creating a comfortable windbreak for high elevation decks that reduces noise and turbulence while allowing for full natural light penetration.

Video Overview
Better Than Thin Film
You can find clear film online for around €40, but it typically lasts only minutes in harsh weather. AKON does not supply film material, as we focus on industrial and commercial-grade solutions. We use thick 20 mil and 30 mil clear PVC designed to withstand winter conditions, strong winds, and UV exposure. Our material is also custom-sized, so you don’t have excess plastic flapping in the wind, which not only looks untidy but also performs poorly at keeping out the weather.
Benefits
- MADE TO YOUR EXACT DIMENSIONS: Unlike one-size-fits-all clear tarps, you provide the precise measurements you need. This results in a much more professional-looking installation. AKON clear custom tarp curtains are used in thousands of outdoor applications across the USA. Note: due to folding and shipping, sizes may vary by up to 2.5 cm.
- HIGH QUALITY MATERIAL: All custom clear tarps are waterproof, rainproof, UV-rated, and winter rated. These transparent tarps are designed for outdoor use where you want a clear line of sight while keeping out the wind and rain.
- MULTIPLE USES AND SIZES: Use your custom clear tarp with grommets to protect people, furniture, and equipment. These versatile transparent tarps are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. Common applications include clear patio curtains, deck curtains, porch curtains, industrial curtains, gazebo curtains, greenhouse covers, balcony curtains, and more.
- MOUNTING OPTIONS: Each custom-sized clear tarp can be made with optional grommets, snaps, twist locks, or pockets. These options allow for quick and secure mounting on one or all sides.
- ZIPPER or MAGNETIC ENTRANCES: Unhooking a tarp to enter can be inconvenient, so we offer clear tarps with zipper or magnetic openings for quick access. Walk in easily, then seal it behind you.
- REINFORCED EDGES: The clear PVC material includes reinforced webbing around the edges for extra strength. This prevents fasteners from tearing out during windy conditions. Note: only clear tarps require webbing, as opaque vinyl is already internally reinforced.
- SHIPS IN 7–10 WORKING DAYS: Quality fabrication takes a little longer, but the result is a perfect fit. Custom-sized tarps install cleanly and avoid the loose, messy look of generic covers. These tarps are made specifically for you and come with a 1-year defect warranty. Please note: custom tarps are non-refundable unless defective.

Considerations
USES
Common uses include clear patio curtains, deck curtains, porch curtains, industrial curtains, gazebo curtains, greenhouse covers, balcony curtains, throw tarps, and more.
SHRINKAGE
PVC expands and contracts slightly with temperature changes and folding. Tarps are made to your exact size, but may vary by up to 2.5 cm after shipping and weather exposure. Allow a little tolerance when measuring.
HEAT SEALING
Heat seals are placed either vertically or horizontally at AKON’s discretion for tarps wider than 137 cm.
If you prefer to specify heat-seal placement, just let us know and we will do our best to accommodate.
Here is a useful video explaining heat seals.
