Sunbrella Custom Shade Sails provide maximum protection from the sun and its harmful UV rays. They are available in a variety of sizes, colors, and shapes, including squares, rectangles, equilateral triangles, and right angle triangles. Each sail comes with user friendly instructions for installation.
With shade sails, you can cover your patio, swimming pool areas, gardens, children's outdoor play areas, parking areas, and any area around your home where you would like shade and protection. Shade sails are also ideal for use around office buildings, in courtyards, and in outdoor eating areas and break areas. Sunbrella® shade sails can be mounted to practically any surface and are simple to install.
Sunbrella® Custom Shade Sails are made with durable and breathable Sunbrella® fabric that helps to keep you cool and comfortable even in the hottest weather. These sails are covered with a limited 10 year warranty and provide you with a UV protection factor of up to 98%. Sunbrella's state-of-the-art solution-dyed acrylic fabric is fade and water resistant. The fabric also resists stains, mildew, and rot. The perimeter of each sail is surrounded with a seatbelt type webbing for increased strength and durability. Each corner has a welded solid marine grade stainless steel attachment ring to aid in attaching the sail to a structurally sound fixing point.
Additionally, the perimeter of each sail is designed with a gentle curve inwards towards the center of the sail to control fabric tension. This inward curve will be approximately 6-8% of the length of each side of the shade sail. Therefore, when tension is placed on the shade sail, the fabric will not wrinkle or sag. Shade sails, when installed properly, do not sag or flap in the wind.
Sunbrella® fabric is water resistant, and shade sails made from this fabric have to be installed with at least a 20 degree slope to allow water to run off and not pool on top of the sail. The chart above lists measurements for the amount of vertical drop recommended based on the size of the sail. Measurements are rounded.
Due to the limited fabric widths available for Sunbrella® fabric, your shade sail will have seams approximately every 40-57 inches.
