Sail Shade Poles and Fittings FAQs

• How do I fix my garden sail shade?

  Successfully installing a sail shade in your garden comes down to two things – having the right measurements, and the right fittings. While it’s down to you to provide accurate measurements, we can help with the fittings. Our sail shade kits are designed to include all the small parts you’ll need to fix your garden sail shade. For more information on how to set up your sail shade perfectly, see our installation guide. 

• What’s included in a sail shade kit?

  There are three key parts you’ll need to fit a sail shade – pad eyes, turnbuckles and snap hooks. To save you from individually buying these parts, our sail shade kits include the correct number of each fitting you’ll need for a successful installation.

• How do you anchor a shade sail?

  Shade sails are anchored by connecting the corners to solid points such as exterior walls and structures. You attach them to the walls using a number of fittings including pad eyes, turnbuckles and snap hooks.

  To make it easier for you to anchor your shade sail, our shade sail kits are designed to include everything you need to anchor and provide the right tension for your shade sail. Discover even more essential shade sail fittings in our full range of sail shades here at Primrose.
