Attaching sun shade to gutter.

You don t have to take them down no storage hassles. The corners of the shade should have grommets or steel rings in place. For one corner it s sometimes better to use a tension strap. The reputable manufacturers will include turnbuckles that can simply be tightened with a screwdriver.

Some of the cheaper brands of sail shades don t have these and simply attach directly to the hook. Just attach the hook to the turnbuckle and then slide it into place over the corner of the shade. Leave at least 8 12 inches of overhang on all sides. Attach vertical screens to the extended awning to block the sun when its low in the sky.

Start with a pergola arbor or another structure you wish to cover with the shade cloth. Roll out the shade cloth across your structure and loosely pull it into position. Attach shade cloth to one of the longest sides first the edge closest to your house. If you have one corner of the sun shade without a turnbuckle usually because you are trying to keep the shade as close as possible to that point then attach this point first.

Retractable awnings provide instant shade or quickly roll up when you don t need them.
