This range of shade sails offers the ultimate combination of maximum sun protection, strength and durability to ensure maintenance free, long life performance.
Custom Made Shade Sails Custom made shade sails are made specifically to to the measurements that are supplied by you. When measuring a shade sail, it is important that you obtain as much information possible to give to the shade sail cutters. There are three types of measurements: Perimeter, Diagonal, and Height.
Installers must be careful to measure the Perimeter Measurements as close as possible, and they should measure to the fixing (posts, rafter brackets, wall plates, sail track) points after the hardware has been installed .
The Diagonal Measurements, which also should be as accurate as possible, are the point to point measurements that are not representing sail edges, and are used to plot the corners and cross-reference the perimeter measurements.
The Height measurements are the actual or relative heights of the sail fixings. For Example, there may be three posts. They may be 3.04m, 3.55m and 3.78m respectively. So one might say that post 1 is level, post 2 is +500mm and post 3 is +700mm.
These measurements allow the sail cutter to take the difference in height of the posts into consideration when checking the measurements supplied by the installer. Height measurements need only be accurate within 100 - 150mm.
