Frequently Asked Questions
What hardware do I need to install a shade sail?
Most installations use a combination of stainless steel wall plates, corner brackets, and roofing anchors, plus turnbuckles and shackles to tension the sail. Our free accessories list walks you through exactly what suits your space.
What size wall plate should I use for a shade sail?
We stock 4" × 4" (100mm) and 6" × 6" (150mm) stainless steel wall plates. Larger plates spread the load more effectively and are recommended for bigger sails or higher-tension installations.
Why stainless steel for shade sail fittings?
316 marine-grade stainless steel resists rust and corrosion, making it ideal for outdoor, coastal, and high-UV environments where cheaper hardware fails over time.
Do you ship to the USA?
Yes — we ship stainless steel shade sail hardware and custom and pre-made sails across the USA and worldwide, for both residential and commercial projects.
