DIY Shade Sail

An Actual Example of a DIY Shade Sail 

Once you understand the principles of installing a Shade sail everything just falls into place. Dig the holes, drop in the poles, measure for sail and when it arrives, use turnbuckles to tension it up.

Another Actual Example of a DIY Shade Sail

This job was undertaken by a local committee. No-one had ever before installed a shade sail. Once they read the book they knew what size poles to buy and how deep to dig the holes. They sent the meassurements in to us, we made the sail and it fitted perfectly.

One thing this book works hard to cover is helping you to avoid the biggest mistakes most people make when they plan to install thier own shade sail. Here are just two of the most common mistakes most people make. 

Mistake Number 1: 

Not Planning Where The Shade Will Fall. 

Most people think that they should install the shade sail directly over their dining table or pool. That can be a big mistake.  You see the sun is constantly moving across the sky and as such, so is the shade. One of the most valuable things you can do is to work out in advance when you will be using the shade sail most so that you can plan where you want the s hade to fall when you're wanting it most.

Mistake Number 2: 

Installing Triangular Shade sails. 

Shade sails are made with curved edges. This is necessary for tensioning however, this curvature is greatly accentuated when it comes to triangular shade sails. Triangular shade sails may look cool but they give very little shade and run to long narrow points. Why go to all the trouble of installing a shade sail only to end up with a result that essentially doesn't work.   

The  shade sails below are a good examples of how little shade triangular shade sails provide. If you look closely, you'll see the shade sail on the right was installed in order to cover the outdoor table. As you can clearly see, it does a pretty poor job of providing shade over the families table. If the installer had only installed a forth attachment point he would have ended up with a great result but instead, he was very disappointed with all the time and money he invested.
