Four Post Structure:
The Four Post Shade Structure utilizes the same top structure technology of the Cantilever, with the exception that four posts are required. These posts are normally positioned at the four respective corners of the structure.
Two Post Cantilever:
Other than the pleasing and interesting visual effect, Full Cantilever Shade Structures are very popular due to the fact that only two posts or columns are used per top structure. This enables very easy access to the shaded area below the structure and cancels the risk of driving into the front posts.(View in 3D on Google Earth)
Four Post Cantilever:
A Four Post Cantilever is a hybrid between a Full Cantilever and a Four Post design. A typical Four Post Cantilever Structure requires four posts, but the posts can be installed on a different grid or size as the top structure .On top of these posts two horizontal beams are attached , which results in it being possible to slide the entire top structure in a pre-determined direction after installation. This creates a Cantilevered effect, although four posts are still used.
T-Cantilever:
The maximum structure size is 25’ Wide and 18’ Deep. Note that any size smaller can also be fabricated with ease.
This structure can also be combined, side by side or back to back to cover a larger area.
This structure utilises two vertical posts and two carry beams which forms the outside perimeter of the structure.
2” Galvanized tubing are inserted into the sleeves around the edges of the shade-net and run horizontally between the posts at clearance height.
The pyramid shape is created by four 2” galvanized tubes running upwards at an angle from the post top towards the peak of the structure.
The standard height of these structures are 8’ high. Structures with a different height can be fabricated.
To lower cost, this structure can be attached to existing buildings or structures utilizing stable and sufficient anchoring points.
Tri-angle Sails:
This structure does not have limitations on size up to 50’ Wide and 50’ Deep. Larger sizes can be engineered. Note that any size smaller can also be fabricated with ease.
This structure can also be combined, side by side or back to back to cover a larger area.
This structure utilises three vertical posts which forms the outside perimeter of the structure.
Galvanized cable or wire rope are inserted into the sleeves around the edges of the shade-net and run horizontally between the posts at clearance height.
Square Sails:
This structure does not have limitations on size up to 50’ Wide and 50’ Deep. Larger sizes can be engineered. Note that any size smaller can also be fabricated with ease.
This structure can also be combined, side by side or back to back to cover a larger area.
This structure utilises four vertical posts which forms the outside perimeter of the structure.
Galvanized cable or wire rope are inserted into the sleeves around the edges of the shade-net and run horizontally between the posts at clearance height.
Custom Made Shade Sails:
These sails can be twisted, over-lapped or cut into different shapes to fit the specific need of our clients.
Shade sails with a different shapes can be designed and fabricated with ease.
