FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why buy a shade sail?
A shade sail is an attractive and functional solution for enjoying the outdoors while providing effective protection from the sun. Unlike parasols or pergolas, they offer flexible cover and a modern design that blends in perfectly with all types of landscaping. Whether you're looking for shade for garden furniture, a dining area or a swimming pool, a shade sail is an ideal alternative to traditional solutions, offering protection, comfort and aesthetic appeal.
How do I choose a shade sail?
There are a number of criteria when it comes to choosing a shade sail :
- Size and shape : there's a wide choice here, so you can find the shade sail that's best suited to the space you want to cover. It's possible to install a single shade sail, or combine several using different shapes or colours. This can protect a larger surface area while ensuring an attractive, original look.
- The material : your choice of material will depend on what you are looking for in terms of budget, visual impact and weight. From a more technical point of view, the material you choose will make the shade sail more or less durable over time, and more or less resistant to bad weather and the sun's rays.
- Fixing points : these need to be ultra-strong to ensure that the shade sail is perfectly tensioned and has a sufficient slope to avoid pockets of water. This will ensure that the shade sail is firmly attached and ready to face the elements all year round.
What shape of shade sail should I choose?
There are three main shapes of shade sail, each with its own advantages :
- Triangular shade sail
Ideal for small spaces or for creating a modern, dynamic design. It can be used to cover a corner in the case of a right-angled triangular shade sail, but can also be equilateral or isosceles in shape.
- Rectangular shade sail
Perfect for covering a large area such as a terrace, swimming pool or outdoor dining area.
- Square shade sail
Slightly less common than the two previous shapes, this provides a more symmetrical and balanced effect, particularly appreciated in modern or minimalist designs.
What is the best material for a shade sail?
The choice of material depends on your needs:
- HDPE (High Density Polyethylene) shade sail
Lightweight and breathable, but not very UV-resistant and not really durable over time. This is the ideal solution when you're looking for a low-cost shade sail.
- PVC shade sail
If you want optimum protection from the rain, opt for a waterproof shade sail. PVC shade sails are totally waterproof, strong, durable and easy to wash. It's excellent value for money.
- Acrylic shade sail
Acrylic shade sails generally have excellent UV, rain and wind resistance. Its fabric look is very attractive. It is often used for top-of-the-range installations and is usually fairly expensive compared with traditional shade sails.
How do you attach a shade sail?
The fixing of a shade sail must be rigorous and secure to ensure that it holds in place and is resistant to external conditions.
Here are the steps to follow:
- Choose solid anchor points : walls, posts, sturdy trees, metal structures, etc.
- Use suitable fixings : guy wires, stainless steel cables, turnbuckles, turnbuckles, pitons, pegs, snap hooks, steel shackles, etc.
- Ensure a good incline : a slight slope of at least 20% will prevent rainwater from accumulating and creating water pockets.
- Check the tension : use turnbuckles or steel turnbuckles and adjust them regularly to prevent wear and tear and optimise the life of your outdoor fabric.
By following this advice, you can ensure that your shade sail is robust and long-lasting, so you can enjoy your outdoor space with complete peace of mind.
