Commercial Canopies In Miami

Shade sail materials are available in two main types: waterproof fabrics that keep out light-to-moderate rain and breathable fabrics that help keep the air underneath the shade cooler.

Depending on the playground size, you can add a shade to cover the whole area, smaller zones of related equipment, or individual pieces such as swings, slides, and climbers. When designing your playground cover, we can work with you to find the most effective and affordable combination.

Most playground shade covers are made with a waterproof or breathable fabric roof, supported by metal posts for sturdiness. However, in some circumstances, a solid metal canopy can provide a greater level of protection, although at a higher cost.

In a climate like South Florida’s, playground shade covers are essential for four important reasons:

• They help protect children’s skin against harmful UV rays and sunburn.
• They lower temperatures to keep children safer in longer play sessions without overheating.
• They keep playground equipment cooler to avoid the risk of burning.
• They protect your play equipment against fading and cracking in strong direct sunlight, extending its useful life.

Whether you’re a parent wanting to protect your children’s health or a business owner wanting to provide a safe environment for your younger customers, playground shade covers are the ideal solution.

Shade covers are great for cooling down playgrounds during the summer months. There are various options that will provide varying levels of protection from the sun so that you can balance the perfect amount of shade and sun for your space.

Typically canopies can be put into one of 3 categories – patio canopies, car canopies, or commercial canopies. But within these categories, you can also find variations, including portable tent canopies, fixed overhead canopies, retractable canopies, and more. Because canopies can be built with a combination of metal and fabrics, they are one of the most easily customizable shade solutions we offer.

While canopies and gazebos both offer shade and shelter in your yard, that’s where their similarities stop. A gazebo is a self-contained structure complete with posts, a roof, often one or more sides, and usually a deck or other type of flooring. Gazebos are typically built to provide a shaded outdoor relaxation space similar to a deck or patio. By contrast, a canopy is an overhead cover that’s usually attached to the wall of a building or supported by an open framework of posts rather than having a building-like structure. While canopies can provide cover to a deck or patio, they are typically used to cover existing spaces, not create new ones.

Canopies are available in a variety of materials, and depending on your choice, they can be made entirely rainproof. Old-fashioned canvas canopies offer little protection from rain and can soak up moisture with a risk of mold or staining. However, more modern options are made from canvas coated with acrylic or vinyl for total waterproofing. Canopies made from fiberglass, metal, or another solid material are entirely weatherproof, providing full shelter in sunny and rainy weather.
