Glide Elbow™ Fabric Release
With our Glide Elbow™ quick-release mechanism, installation and removal of your fabric is completed with the use of a wrench or cordless drill that has an appropriately sized socket. Not only does our Glide Elbow™ make updating fabric easier, but it also allows you to easily remove fabric for severe weather. Additionally, metal-on-metal wear is minimized with our fabric hook connection.
Our shade structures block up to 98% of UV rays that can damage playground equipment, motor vehicles, and building facades, not to mention your skin. That’s why we put so much work into our products. Whether it’s a custom shade sail or commercial umbrella, we care about shading our friends, families, and customers from the sun. Our shade products also create spaces where children, families, and neighbors can gather for picnics and enjoy quality time where memories are made!
