Choose Your Shade Net Colour
Available in a selection of versatile shade cloth colours, making it easy to complement your home, business or parking area. From subtle neutral tones to bolder colour options, you can choose a finish that works with your surroundings.
Each colour is manufactured from the same durable, UV-stabilised shade cloth, so your choice is not only about appearance — you still get reliable shade protection and long-term outdoor performance.
Heavy-Duty 240 GSM Shade Cloth
Made from premium 240 GSM shade cloth, our cantilever shade ports provide strong, dependable protection for vehicles and outdoor areas.
With a 90% shade factor, the tightly woven fabric helps block harsh sunlight and reduce heat beneath the structure, while UV-stabilised material is designed to withstand long-term exposure to South African outdoor conditions.
Strong, durable and made for everyday use, it provides the protection you need without compromising on the clean, modern look of your shade port.
Classic 4-Post Coverage
The 4-post design provides strong, dependable support from each corner, creating a stable and practical shade solution for everyday parking.
With generous coverage across the full parking area, it helps protect vehicles from harsh sun while maintaining an open, easy-to-use space underneath.
A reliable choice for homes, businesses and commercial parking areas, the classic 4-post structure combines simple design, solid support and long-term outdoor performance.
Reinforced Centre Support
The internal frame and reinforced centre connection help support the structure and keep the shade cloth securely tensioned. Designed for practical assembly, the centre connection is simple to connect and secure, making installation easier while still providing the strength and stability needed for long-term use.
Made for Years of Shade
Built for long-term outdoor use, our cantilever shade ports are designed to handle the demanding conditions that come with everyday exposure to the South African climate.
The shade net carries a 10-year UV warranty, while the structure is backed by a 7-year workmanship warranty for added peace of mind.
