The edges of these panels are sewn with heavy-duty reinforcing tape. Brass grommets are installed on approx. 2' centers around the perimeter. Often includes a seam where two pieces of shade have been sewn together. Durable, easy to install with ropes, bungees or wire. Most durable solution for smaller areas where shade will be suspended between four points. Grommeted panels are sold in pre-cut sizes or can be ordered in any custom size.
A raw piece of shade fabric where edges of panel are not reinforced with any tape or grommets. Would not typically have a seam but may have a raw (cut) edge. Can be installed with wiggle wire, shade cloth clips or wooden lath. Precut Panels are sold in pre-cut sizes or can be ordered in any custom size.
Sold in factory widths by the linear foot. Would only rarely have a seam and sides typically include a factory finished (uncut) edge. Most cost effective solution for large quantities of shade fabric.

When hanging shade cloth pieces larger than 100 sq. ft., 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 cable from corner to opposite corner, forming an X pattern that the cloth can rest on. For pieces larger than 400 sq. ft., you may need cables running end to end every 4' or so.
This is a well made shade cloth. I covered my hoop house that gets over a 100 degrees in the summer, if not covered. As it is, I most likely should have purchased a 90% shade cloth as this has been a very hot summer. But this shade cloth is working great. Heavy enough to not flap in the wind, but light enough to install easily. I will probably purchase a 90% cloth for next year and then I can switch to according to weather conditions.
We have used the panels we received between the open posts of our boat house. Keeps the fiberglass gel coat of the boat on the West side of the dock from oxidation. Use bungee cords to attach to the dock posts. Saves rewaxing the boat every year. This is our second set of panels and they last a surprisingly long time.
We live in zone 9 Murrieta Ca. and are attempting to grow Tropicals in our backyard. Last year was a disaster as the summer heat waves scorched the massive leaves of our plants. This year we bought these tarps and what a difference they made. Very high quality and strong. Our plants are thriving and we have our Tiki backyard we have dreamed about. I would have no hesitation purchasing again. Wonderful product.
This 70% shade cloth does an amazing job of keeping the heat off the side of my house and providing a cool place for my big Bernese Mountain Dogs. Best money I ever spent. Great quality and appearance. I would highly recommend.
The width is 12' but the length is not 20' it is about 19'. Great screen just wish it fit better. I had ordered one last year same dimensions and it was the correct measurements.
Great product which lasts a long time
Very nice. Had to stretch the cloth to make it fit, but that gave it a nice appearance. Easy to install with two people.
This is my second green shade cloth purchased from Greenhouse Megastore, and I'm very happy with both of them. They are very nicely finished on the edges; the grommets are great; and the one I bought a year ago is holding up very well in some challenging weather conditions (severe heat in summer, freezing in winter). I would not hesitate to recommend these shade cloths!
Great purchase!
Great quality just what I ordered, fits my green house great, looks good on and is doing a great job keeping it cooler, the hot sun does not shine in and burn my plants
