IMPORTANT:
These instructions are to be used as a guide only. Installation requirements can vary depending on factors such as soil
types, anchor points, wind conditions in your region, etc. GALE Pacific accepts no responsibility for installation requirements, please
consult a qualified builder or engineer.
Before beginning your shade sail installation it is very important that you consider various factors to ensure the success of shading
the desired area. Take into account the following:
• Size and shape of the shade sail
• Direction and angle of the sun
• Strength of the existing structures intended to be anchor points
• Ability to insert fixing posts
• Location of barbecues, electrical/telephone cables, water and sprinkler pipes, etc.
There may be other factors, specific to your situation, that should also be taken into consideration.

SUITABLE LOCATION

Once you have identified the location for your shade sail(s) it
is important to determine the most suitable fixing points for
the sail's corners (Fig. 1). Potential fixing points like a pergola,
sundeck, large tree or building fascia may already exist.
IMPORTANT:
Ensure all fixing points are
structurally sound and if unsure about fixing
points, obtain independent advice from a builder
or engineer. A minimum fixing height of 7'10" is
suggested.
Lay out the shade sail in the area where it is to be erected
to determine suitable fixing points. Allow a minimum of an
additional 10% of the shade sail length between each fixing
point and the end of the shade sail's fixing accessory for
proper tensioning.

USING EXISTING SUPPORTS

A. Attaching to Fascia:
sail to a fascia, the use of a fascia support is strongly
recommended. The fascia support is used to connect
the overhangs of rafters or trusses to fascias giving
them additional strength. Fascia supports are available
from your local hardware store (Fig.2).
B.
Attaching to Trees:
shade sails to trees be for TEMPORARY USE ONLY. The
diameter of the tree where the shade sail will be fixed
should be at least 9.75".
