Shade sails

Choosing the right shade sail

Dimensions and shapes: A triangular shade sail is suitable for spaces requiring three attachment points, while a rectangular sail can cover a larger area. Measure your patio or garden, allowing enough space for anchoring and tensioning.

Materials and sun protection: Outdoor shade sails are designed to filter some of the sun's rays. Some fabrics promote airflow, while others are water-resistant. Check the UV protection and materials before purchasing.

Installation and maintenance: Attach your shade sail to sufficiently sturdy supports and follow the manufacturer's recommendations. A slight incline can help water drain off suitable models. Generally, remove the sail during winter or in high winds.

Frequently asked questions

Does a shade sail protect against rain?

It depends on the fabric. Some sails allow water to pass through, while others have a water-repellent or waterproof treatment. Check the model's specifications.

Can a shade sail be installed on a balcony?

Yes, if the dimensions, anchoring points, and building rules allow it. The supports must be able to withstand the tension exerted by the sail and the wind.
