Shade Sails & Structures for Pathways
July 14th, 2021 · Published to Applications, Shade Sails by Steve Lewis
Shade sails and shade structures are commonly installed over patios and carports, but they’re so versatile that they can be used in just about any outdoor application. One of the best applications, which is often overlooked, is pathways.
Providing a weather-protected path to get you from your car to your front door can make a real difference. A) it’s welcoming, B) it provides a clear pathway to your desired destination, and C) it makes the area beneath cooler and more pleasant. Furthermore, if the shade sails or shade structure features a waterproof shade cloth or PVC fabric, it can offer total protection against rain, making a massive difference.
Whether you live in Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne, Newcastle, Sydney, Sunshine Coast, Tweed Heads, or the Central Coast, if it’s shade sails and shade structures for residential pathways you’re after, you’ve come to the right place.
