20' x 20' x 20' Sun Shade Sail Triangle Outdoor Canopy Cover UV Block for Backyard Porch Pergola Deck Garden Patio (Beige)

These are the third or fourth replacements. Couple different suppliers - these windscreens4less are in line with the better ones - D rings not rusting, double looped. (prosource Nov 2015 was a single loop). Good for two or three seasons, maybe four depending where you are i guess, winter storage, and how many cats decide they are hammocks. very cute ... until they fall thru an old one, no rip stop material here. Spare one handy. shade that is.Original plan was three 16x16x16 triangle shades out to steel posts placed away from the house in a way to maximise the shade sail coverage while keeping the posts to three, outside of the deck. Two more sails have since been added once the angles were figured and another anchor point added to the house. Triangles bow inward under tension, so the overlapping shades give fuller coverage, even double shade is nice in a few places, and keep it more interesting, especially if you can figure alternating tie off heights. square is just square.Noteworthy Extra Hardware used:3/16" Dacron rope. DavisRopeAndCable dot comStainless Turnbuckles. Sailrite dot comshades replaced, hardware holding strong.all the shade brands seem to provide the same basic white rope for tie offs where direct D ring to metal connectors cannot be made to the anchors. for a quick temporary placement the rope is ok - it is soft and easy to work with ... but will stretch and the shades will flap, shortening their life. if you look closely at the large shade installations at resorts or parks, they use steel cable under high tension. they even have the cable run through all the sides of the shades for extra tension. high quality shades too most likely. thousand$. didn't want fuss with steel cable initially, and ended up never seeing the need.The cheapest closest easiest to work with alternative i could find is Dacron (high strength polyester made by DuPont). US made rope. about 15c per foot for 3/16". it is very low stretch black rope. holds knots well. UV and weathers well. stephen davis at davis rope and cable assembly supplies tower rigging companies, but worked with my little order and walked thru explaining the rope on the phone. order was delayed due to staffing and sickness, extra rope length was thrown in. just because. can't beat that. that was 2017. 2021 I'm about to use him again for zip line rope and car port elevator winching lines.whatever tightness you can get the shades to with the rope, the better ... i've used the cheap white rope as a come-along, several loops back and fro the D ring and anchor, even pulleys, just for fun. whatever, the final tension on the Dacron is best/easiest done with a turnbuckle between the rope and anchor. there are plenty turnbuckles for sale here on amazon ... but mostly galvanised that will rust/seize pretty quickly. found a few stainless ones for $70 or so. each. eek. hence the mention above. around $15 or so, for a strong closed end stainless turnbuckle, with locking nuts. over time a new shade will stretch some; the turnbuckle allows additional tension to pick up the slack - so long as you got enough tension initially with the rope, allowing use of the full turnbuckle length later to pick up slack rather than re tying the rope.hope this helps someone do a shade install a little more robustly - no floppy sails!

Works great is made out of good material was nervous With The Wind that we get but it held up just fine

I used these windscreens on my balcony. I love the colors and they do a nice job providing some shade in the hot summer months. I had these up for three years. At the end of the third summer they started to tear. One tore slightly and the rest were faded and had a few small tears in them. The first two years I had them I kept them up year round and the third year I took them down in winter. I think if I had done that the first two years they may have lasted a bit longer. I used eyelets and carabiners to hang them up. We get quite a bit of wind hear and they never came down. I loved theses so much I am going to order them again. Keep in mind I don't think they are intended to last more than three to five years depending on what type of weather you get in your area. I hung these South facing so they received quite a bit of sun. Also keep in mind red and orange fade faster than other colors. I have two red and two orange.

I originally order this 20x20x20 shade in Aug of '21 in beige. I did not use the included rope to secure the corners. I instead opted for stainless chain and misc. hardware from my local hardware store. Knowing it would stretch over time I added turnbuckles at 2 of the corners to easily adjust and keep it tight. The shade survived many FL afternoon storms and high winds. This month I noticed some tearing at the corners and ordered a replacement in gray. I expected it to last one year in the FL sun but its lasted 2.5 years and could have probably gone longer since the tears were minor.Install it using good hardware designed to take the outdoor environment and you'll have a shade good for a few seasons.

Getting ready to replace this after having it up for over 6 years! Great quality and durability!

the price corresponds to the quality

I purchased the gray color. I use it for my dogs to give them extra shade while I'm at work. I have quite a few of these up. You can tell a big difference underneath for the coolness. I used to use a regular canopy with frame. Those don't hold up to the wind. I had to replace numerous of times because of that. Those also trap in the heat underneath. These canopy's have so far held up to some pretty strong winds plus they don't trap the heat in. It only comes with one rope. So, depending how or what you are attaching to, plan for some kind of hook. I attached mine to my house on one end with a rope and carabineer and the other two with snap hooks to a chainlink fence.

Provides additional overhead sun shade

Very durable. Easy to install. Much better than a big umbrella because when it’s windy out, it is not affected nearly as much. Be sure that your anchor points are secure locations.

buena calidad

item as described. All GoodThanks!

Used for shade on our Pickleball court. Strong material with heavy grommets; we used straps and encl hardware to hang it and it has held up well.
