How to achieve Commercial Grade Pool & Deck Shade

Installing shade for your pool or deck is a great idea as they provide essential shade to protect the skin from dangerous UV rays and also can make your outdoor areas more functional, stylish, and easier to maintain.
There are many options out there to chose from, which is why we have compiled this list of the best structures to achieve commercial grade shade.

Conical Shade Structures

Conical shade structures are considered to be traditional and fundamental in design. They are simple and practical, but still give off a professional and effortless look.

Conical structures consist of support bars with cone-shaped canopies stretched over the top. They can be attached to pre-existing infrastructure or placed in the ground with poles.

Thanks to their versatile design, conical structures can be made to any size depending on how much you wish to shade and the surrounding environment.

Cantilever Shade Structures

A Cantilever shade structure is a great choice for a pool or a deck as they are brilliant at saving space.
By definition, a cantilever simply refers to “a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is supported at only one end.” This then allows for overhang without additional support. The advantage of this unique design is that three whole sides of the structure are left open with only two restrictive poles on the one side. This flexibility allows for the optimal use of your space.
