Looking for anyone in the group who has personal (first hand)
experience with purchasing and installing shade sails.
I wish to cover the concrete driveway area outside of the six car
garage and several other areas.
I am looking for the best, most reputable vendors for the sails and
for rigging hardware. I am also curious about what kind of posts were
used for installation. With the level of tension required for the
cables, it would seem that 6 - 8" diameter steel posts would be
required.
Any personal experiences with such projects would be welcome.


Sorry - no personal experience - but the " Instr " link
on this page, has a pretty good 4-page pdf for installation
instructions.

If comparing price & quality of different brands - don't forget to
look at the hardware included - good stainless steel -
rather than cheapo ...
