This video is great. Thank you so much. Been looking into putting up sun shades on my deck and I'm definitely going to incorporate some of these ideas.
Glad it was helpful! Let me know how your build goes. Here's a link to the follow on video: ua-cam.com/video/jjm354YRpSc/v-deo.html and this one after 5 years: ua-cam.com/video/jjm354YRpSc/v-deo.html
Thank you for this video. It has some useful suggestions.
Thank you Carlos for the feedback.
Thank you so much for showing the detail. Excellent 👍💯
Paula B, you're quite welcome. Just posted a follow up video you might find helpful: ua-cam.com/video/jjm354YRpSc/v-deo.html
Totally using the hinge idea for my balcony. Thanks for this!
You're welcome. Plan to put these up for another year this weekend, the rig and sails are still going strong: ua-cam.com/video/jjm354YRpSc/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/qHS3AH6pyWM/v-deo.html
Best shade install video I’ve found. Thanks!
Dosam, thanks for the feedback. Glad you found my shade video helpful.
This is awesome! Great instructions. Thank you 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it! I'm starting my fifth year on these. Installed them last weekend and made some updates. Stay tune for that video coming soon.
We have all Regal aluminum railing with composite decking. 10 x 10 north facing with west exposure, so lots of summer sunshine beating down. Trying to figure out how to do a similar setup, your video gives inspiration!!
Glad to hear. Best of luck on your project, let me know how it turns out.
Gave me some great ideas from my project!
Glad to hear, stay tuned for more ideas.
This is really great. I'm pretty sure my HOA won't let me do it though (because of how it looks). Well, I won't know unless I try it though. As long as I don't have a neighbor report me. 😂
PurpleGirl, we have a really strict home owners association too, but since these are considered temporary, i.e. not permanently installed, i.e. we take them down in November and put them up in March, April, they're allowed. Maybe your neighbors will put some up too, once they see yours? Good luck.
Thanks for sharing your tip.
Glad you liked the video. Yeah, this was a fun and satisfying build.
What are the dimensions of the shade (sails) you installed in this video? Thanks!
Thanks for your question, just checked the bag, the sails are both 13ft X 7ft.
Bought my mum a shade sail. Can I make the posts portable? We need an HOA approval to screw nails in the house.
Ellis, my poles are designed to slide out. I also have a HOA and their fine with the design since they consider it non permanent.
My HOA would be knocking on my door the very next day after completion. LOL
So far so good for me, one of the keys is that its non-permanent.
I thought about planting my lavender in ground but I am worried that it's gonna spread like crazy is that something that will happen. Or how do you deal with containing it
B Prince, Our experience Lavender is not evasive like mint. It hasn't spread far at our place.
How is the steel pole secure? Where/how is it installed? Thx
Leah, its in the video. Here are the clamps I used: amzn.to/3n9v6pX held in place by 2 inch wood screws mounted into the wooden deck structure. Pre drill the holes to help make it easier to put them in.
Great idea 💡
xm xm, thanks, I'll be posting a 3 yr update this Wednesday, 15 June. Stay tuned.
Do you have any high wind concerns?
rolandrock, we've had the sails up all season in wind gusts over 60 mph and they are showing no wear. Very surprised actually since I had the same concern at first. The poles are the key...
@@MakeItorBreakItNow Thank you for your response
What do you have those posts set in..the ground?
@@sandramitchell743 The posts are screwed into the deck structure using 1 inch conduit clamps.
Can you share the product info....having trouble finding....thanks kindly
I got the panels from Costco, several years back but they seem to have them every year. Looking at the package its called Coolaroo Ready-To-Hang Shade Sail. Rectangle 7 ft by 13 ft, but these sails come in all shapes and sizes.
Here's the same shade on Amazon:
www.amazon.com/Shade-Beyond-Rectangle-Sunshade-Backyard/dp/B07H7XF7XY at CostCo they were around $15.
How has it held up to higher winds?
Vonnie, not a problem at all in winds over 60 mph, I think its because of the angles of the shade, sail, does seem to hold a lot of wind.
You keep mentioning the fixture for a temp plate to make the holes in the pipe but you never say what it is or how you made it
Boe M., I start using the fixture at 5:01 in the video. It's a 1-inch PVC pipe end cap and a piece of 1-inch PVC Schedule 20 (thinner walled) pipe. You could also role up a piece of thicker card stock if you don't have a piece of pipe. I just went out to the deck and verified the center of the holes are 1.5 inches down from the top of the pipes. Thanks for your question.
Use carabiners instead of knots!
petibatyo, funny you mention the carabiners. I did add them to the house side, but left the ropes this season on the pole side because the sails tend to stretch over time. But to your point biners are much easier.
111 DEGREES!!!! IN THE SHADE!!!!
WHERE YOU LIVIN AT BRO! ON VENUS!
That sir is no shade.
On Mars with Elon Musk... Remember that's not air temp, its surface temp of the deck which I agree is hard to walk on at that temp. But we do get 100 deg days in the Southeast USA.
@@MakeItorBreakItNow I thought he was describing air temp.
@@matteudy9912 It's hard to capture the air temp with the laser sensor. But heat rises off of hot surfaces so certainly has an effect.
$15 for 1 inch 10 feet EMT now! Use to be half that price not long ago.
Blame b..... lol.
Prince Froggie, yeah the price of building materials has really gone up. Crazy! Hopefully not for long...
You can thank Joe for that.
