Awnings, canopies and shade sails provide options for shading garden seating and terrace areas. The range includes triangular and rectangular Gardlov shade sails, retractable Multigarden side awnings and sun shades from other brands. Shade sails cover a space from above, while side awnings act as vertical privacy screens. Selected sails are described as waterproof.

How to choose awnings, canopies and shade sails

Start by deciding whether the space needs overhead shade or a screen along one side. Measure the intended area and consider where attachment points could be positioned. For a shade sail, compare its shape and individual side lengths. For a retractable side awning, compare the screen height and extension length. Check the chosen product’s attachment requirements and stated properties before planning installation.

  • Triangular shade sails: consider the position of all three corners when planning the shaded area. Compare each side measurement rather than judging coverage from the product image.
  • Rectangular shade sails: length and width are the key dimensions. The rectangular shape can suit the layout of a dining table or an elongated seating area.
  • Retractable side awnings: these form a vertical screen beside an outdoor space. Match the screen height and extension length to the boundary you want to cover.
  • Waterproof options: waterproofing is stated for selected sails. If rain protection matters, check the individual description and installation guidance rather than relying on the sail’s shape.
  • Placement and dimensions: use measurements of the actual installation area when comparing products. Overhead coverage and the length of a side screen require different measurements.

For outdoor dining or terrace seating, begin with the shape and dimensions of an overhead shade sail. For a more secluded seating corner, focus on retractable side awnings and the extent of the screen required.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a shade sail and a side awning?

A shade sail provides shade from above an outdoor area. A side awning forms a vertical screen to help create a more private seating space.

How do I choose the size of a shade sail?

To choose a shade sail, measure the intended area and consider the available attachment positions. Compare every side length for a triangular sail, or the length and width for a rectangular sail.

Are shade sails waterproof?

Selected shade sails are described as waterproof. Check the chosen shade sail’s description and installation guidance when considering use in rain.

Which measurements matter for a retractable side awning?

A retractable side awning’s height and extension length are the key measurements. Compare both with the side of the space you want to screen.
