Shade Sails

Shade sails come in a variety of sizes and shapes, it's important to select one for your sun protection needs. Begin with measuring your outdoor space carefully and select a sail or sails that will provide enough shade for your area. Properly installing your shade sail is crucial to both safety and functionality. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully and secure the sail tightly to all the provided anchors.

Almost as important as installation, is the ability to take it down again. 2 main reasons for needing to be able to take your shade sail down are cleaning and in extreme weather. Regular cleaning will keep your shade sail in good shape, maintain its appearance and discourage pests from perching on your shade. Use a soft-bristled brush and gentle, environmentally friendly soap to clean the sail, and rinse completely with water. Do not use harsh chemicals or abrasive materials, this could damage the fabric.

And finally, take it down during extreme weather. All these shade sails are designed to withstand normal wind and rain, but it’s a good idea to take them down in high winds that can damage the sail or adjacent structures which could become a safety hazard. Take it down if a storm is approaching, or if you’ll be away from home for an extended time. A shade sail can be a great addition to your outdoor space, bringing both shade and style. Be careful to choose the right spot, size, and shape, for your sail. Install it properly, keep it clean, and take it down during extreme weather to ensure that it lasts for years to come.
