Shade Analysis & Design Rendering
Shade analysis plays a vital role in creating the ultimate outdoor space. Making sure you receive shade at the correct time of day is essential to ensuring your comfort and getting the most out of your shade product. Visualization is also an important part of the design process and being able to clearly see what your space will look like once your shade product is installed can help in many ways. Our Shade Analysis and Design Rendering service includes a custom 3d rendering, showing the shade pattern typical for midday in July, 3 to 4 views around your space and adaptations at no extra charge.
Construction
To ensure a shade sail looks and performs at its best, tension needs to be applied correctly. Our Custom Shade Sails are handmade in Canada to the specifications of our patented construction method ensuring maximum longevity and safety.
- Advanced Tensioning System – Sails made with fabric/belt perimeter have issues with longevity and tension, especially after the first year of use. Our ATS system includes a stainless steel cable that runs along the perimeter of your sail ensuring equal tensioning, increased water run-off and zero-stretch, lengthening the life of your sail.
- Triple-Layered Reinforced Corners – Our reinforced corners allow increased levels of tensioning, improving the aesthetic of the sail and its performance in wind and rain.
- Double-Stitched Seams – Poorly constructed seams can lead to fraying and strain on a sail’s perimeter. We double stitch our seams with high-quality UV-stabilised thread ensuring a clean even look throughout the perimeter of your sail.
- Non-Continuously Cabled Corners – A significant upgrade from our standard-sized shade sails, the cable in your custom shade sail is terminated at each corner as opposed to running continuously throughout the perimeter, allowing each side of your shade sail to be tensioned individually.

Hardware
Danish-Made Marine-Grade 316 Stainless Steel

There are two types of hardware
- Attachment Hardware (included) – All custom shade sails come with a complete hardware kit to attach your shade sail to your anchor points. This includes turnbuckles, which are used to tension your Shade Sail properly and allow for easy and efficient adjustment during the season and D-shackles, which attach your turnbuckles to the corners of the sail.
- Anchor Point Hardware (sold separately) – This hardware creates anchor points on your posts and/or structure where you will attach your shade sail to. The anchor point hardware you will need will depend entirely on your space and is therefore sold separately. Anchor point hardware can be viewed here and purchased on the Anchor Point Hardware page in our Custom Shopping Cart.
**Please Note: The hardware shown may differ from what you receive based on the size and design of your shade sail.
Shade Sails Traveller
Inspired by our nautical roots, the Shade Sails Traveller system facilitates an adjustment to the positioning of the corner of your shade sail, allowing you to move the corner and accommodate a wider range of sun positions. As a pulley system, the Traveller can also be used to apply final tensioning to the Shade Sail.
Kit includes
- One main pulley and cleat unit
- Two mini pulleys for the top & the bottom of the track
- 1 stainless steel rope cleat
- 5ft track and screws
- Nylon rope

A local carpenter easily installed our sails, using the information shared. With these shade sails, our students were able to enjoy this outdoor area in comfort. Thank you, Shade Sails Canada for your professionalism and for providing a product that we plan to use for many years to come!

Great support through the whole process of designing and ordering and great video tutorials for installation. The product has taken a largely unusable space (due to summer heat) and has transformed it into an enjoyable family space both for at home work and entertainment. Thanks Shade Sails Canada!

Support: Excellent, the team supported us with the numerous questions and worked with us to ensure that the somewhat odd shapes we had would work.
Assembly: Could use some Popeye's spinach :D... Following the videos made the job easier, but it was very challenging to attached the last anchor point (could have used more muscles). There's a lot of tension!!!
Overall: The sails went up this weekend, as of this moment in time, we couldn't be happier. It is cooler under the shades.
