Sunshades Depot Waterproof Shade Sail

Canopy Tent Replacement is the most cost effective shade solution per square foot.

A shade sail is the perfect alternative to a traditional pergola or covered porch. Floating and curvaceous, Shade Sails make an attractive addition to any property, and with the right design, they can enhance the existing property with artistic or architectural flair and style.

Sail Shades are wonderfully versatile; they can be attached to homes, fences, trees, or patio columns. In addition, they can be supported by wood posts or steel columns embedded in concrete footings. They can easily be taken down seasonally if necessary. Shade Sails are the ultimate in stylish sun protection. You can creatively design your own little shady area in a courtyard, pool, gardens, children’s play areas, car spaces, and even entry ways.

HOW TO MAKE THE MEASUREMENT

1. Measure the distance from one post to the next post.

2. Based upon those measurements, subtract 1-1.5 feet. For example, for a 9′ by 9′ by 9′ measurement we suggest one 8′ by 8′ by 8′ product.

*Our sun shade sails have curves on each side to enhance pull strength and prevent drooping on the sides. Due to the curved sides on sun shade sails, the product may have 1-6 inches deviations on side length. For our hand-made products, deviations of 2 inches more or less is not uncommon. Thus, any deviations between 0 and 8 inches are acceptable for our products.

*Due to curves, please keep in mind that our sun shade sails will be 4-6 inches shorter in middle width.

Note: No “waterproof” sun shade from any manufacturer is 100% waterproof, then it would be a plastic tarp.

If water is allowed to pool in the center of the sail, it will slowly drip through. Some water may also drip through the stitching on the seams, but if the sail is installed at at 30-45 degree angle with enough tension, most rain water will run off.
