Save money with DIY Shade Sails!

October 28th, 2013 · Published to Shade Sails

DIY shade sails is a cost-effective way to keep an area outside of your home or business shaded on hot sunny days. Depending on the size of the space that you would like to cover, you can do it all by yourself and save money from hiring installer.

The first step is to plan your angles based on the time of the day that you’re using the space that you’ll like to be shaded. If you’re using the space in the late afternoon, this will be the best time to properly get your angles. There maybe surprise angles that you need to watch out for such as those caused by glass-covered buildings or a nearby pool.

Next step is to look for anchor points. DIY shade sails require fix and stable location. Be very creative as more anchor points will give you more choices and varying angles and heights. This is typically the key to pull off a spectacular shade sail. If you can’t find stable anchor points, you will need to install a new post. For this, you will need to consult with local authorities to ensure that you’re not going to hit plumbing pipeline or power line.
