Grommeted Panel

The edges of these panels are sewn with heavy-duty reinforcing tape. Brass grommets are installed on approximately two-foot centers around the perimeter. They often include a seam where two pieces of shade have been sewn together. The panels are durable and easy to install with ropes, bungees or wire. It's the most durable solution for smaller areas where the shade cloth will be suspended between four points. Grommeted panels are sold in pre-cut sizes or can be ordered in any custom size.

Precut Panel

A raw piece of shade fabric where the edges of the panel are not reinforced with any tape or grommets. Would not typically have a seam but may have a raw (cut) edge. They can be installed with wiggle wire, shade cloth clips or wooden lath. Precut panels are sold in precut sizes or can be ordered in any custom size.

Bulk (currently viewing)

Sold in factory widths by the linear foot. It would only rarely have a seam and the sides typically include a factory-finished (uncut) edge. The most cost-effective solution for large quantities of shade fabric.

Hanging Instructions

When hanging shade cloth pieces larger than 100 square feet, you may need extra center support to prevent the cloth from sagging in the middle. One easy way to do this is by running lightweight cables from each corner to the opposite corner, forming an X pattern that the cloth can rest on. For pieces larger than 400 square feet, you may need cables running end to end every four feet or so.

Good Stuff

I fly a 12 x 20 foot piece of this over my deck every summer and the last piece lasted 12 years and was replaced only because I was lazy and did not keep the redwood supports sanded smooth and a section tore. I sewed it up for two years and it was fine but for aesthetics I decided to replace.. Really make a difference in use of the deck. Gets up in the 100- 110 range here in summer..

90% shade cloth

Bought for my 16' x 14' patio arbor for shade. Well made product and is great for what we need. The material reduces the temperature by 20%. The only item I would change is having the edges bound for a finished look.

Good stuff

This black shade cloth has been atop our backyard pergola for five summers. And it would go for another five or more if the mice hadn't eaten through it while stored in the garage over the winter. The quality is superb. And the service from Greenhouse Megastore is prompt and efficient.

Wonderful product, best prices out there

I do ecological research that requires me to manipulate light availability for plants, so I regularly purchase large quantities of this shade cloth (ranging from 30% to 90% shade). This fabric is strong, lightweight, will not tear or fray, and provides the shade density advertised. I attach it to pvc frames using cable ties, and leave it out year-round for several years without any signs of weathering or UV damage. Because it is bulk unfinished cloth it will roll in on the edges, so get finished edges if you don't want rolling to occur. There may be a seam if you get larger widths, but for me getting a piece that wide that is already sown together beats having to sow it myself.

Beautiful

I definitely thought twice after reading the other review but after looking around this place had the best price by far. And it tells you several times about the charge for smaller amounts of custom cut pieces. If you don't want to pay that then buy the premade pieces that they offer. I was very happy with the shade it is beautiful.
