Is the fabric waterproof?
The fabric is a mesh shade cloth and while it keeps off 80% of the water, a heavy rain will come through as a fine mist. The advantages of a good shade cloth over a waterproof fabric is that it breathes and is much cooler underneath. It is much easier to clean and will last longer.
What are the sizes?
The structures are custom built to any size to the nearest inch. This is extremely convenient when you want to put a structure in a restricted space.
How high are the structures?
They can be any height but we recommend keeping them as low as possible to keep the shade where you want it and thus make them more effective. Keep in mind that there is a 3′- 5′ pitch of the roof which gives more height towards the center of the canopy.
Is the structure permanent?
Yes. Our structures are permanent which makes it very strong and safe in high winds. A very important safety feature compared to portable or collapsible units.
What size are the umbrellas?
Umbrellas are available as a square shape in four sizes; 8′ x 8′, 10′ x 10′, 12′ x 12′, 15′ x 15′ or 18′ x 18′.
