Do you want to install shade sails in your home? Have you decided on the place where you are going to set up your sail? Whether you want to install the sail in your backyard, your patio or in your garden, you can take the help of professionals to carry out the installation. You can either use readymade sails or opt for custom made ones. However, if you are thinking of doing it yourself, you need to know the stepwise procedure that you have to follow. In this blog post, we have discussed about the different steps that you can follow when installing your own shade.
• After the choice of location is done, make sure you do not place the cover where it might cause any barrier. You must also check that the sunshine is not blocked inside the room. The other fixing points must be selected in such a way so that there is minimum 1 meter of slant, through which the rain water may run off.
• Check if any cable extensions need to be used by measuring the distance between all the fixing points. If it’s required, you have to attach the shade sails with the extensions before they are set up.
• Use 8mm drill bit and the drill to create a hole where the first eyebolt will be installed. Repeat the same process for other fixing points.
• For all the corners, now attach the steel turnbuckles. For this, you have to clip them through the eyelets and screw them tightly.
• The first corner will be clipped with the first eyelet. Now you have to take the other end of the sail to second fixing point. Take care to make sure that it doesn’t get soiled. Do the same for all corners. Once the sail is fixed, you need to tighten it properly so that it does not sag or pleat. Even if it sags slightly, you can tighten it by using the turnbuckles.
Follow these steps properly and your shade sail is ready for use.
