TriBlocker Waterproof Triangle Shade Sail

A triangle is the shape that makes shade practical in a real garden. Three fixing points are far easier to find than four, and the geometry lets you pitch one corner low and two high so rain runs off instead of pooling in the middle. The TriBlocker is cut from a coated fabric that blocks sun rather than filtering it, which is the difference between shade you can sit in at midday and shade that only takes the edge off.

Because the fabric is waterproof rather than merely water resistant, it keeps a table dry through a passing shower as well as shading it in full sun. The edges are hemmed and reinforced, and stainless fixing rings are set into each corner so the load is spread into the seam rather than concentrated on a single stitch. Tension it properly on installation, since a slack sail flaps, wears at the corners and collects water.

Use it over a patio table, a run of decking, a paddling pool, a play area or a seating corner that gets too much afternoon sun. Take it down before winter storms and before heavy snow, which no sail is designed to carry. Check the fixings at the start of each season, and always anchor to solid structure rather than fence panels or trellis. Part of the Veyra Home shade sail range.
