School Playground Shade Sails and Canopies
With tensile architecture and design at the centre of our DNA, Shade Sail Blinds focuses on providing our customers with contemporary designed and engineered shade sail and canopy solutions. Solutions that are designed to suite the individual needs of each and every client. And, the same goes when it comes to our School Playground Shade Sails and Canopies.
With schools, nurseries, recreation playgrounds and colleges having a legal responsibility to provide all year-round protection for children and young adults, against damage caused by harmful UV, shade sails and sail canopies are more popular now than ever before. They are a cost effective and stylish solution that lets our children learn and play outdoors, in a safe environment, protected from the worst of the sun. With water repellent sail canopy designs, they can also be used to protect from frequent downpours, allowing play and classes to be held outdoor, regardless of whatever the weather throws our way.

Engineering
Each installation is unique, regardless of design, size or location and so should the installations approved engineering’s be. Each design and installation will have its own controlling wind and snow loadings that need to be met to ensure its fit for purpose and safe. That is why “unlike some companies whom specialise in standard products for schools and playgrounds” we don’t rely on generic pre-produced design engineering’s. When we design and install School Playground Shade Sails and Canopies, we carry out a full set of wind load and snow load engineering’s each and every time. These engineering’s ensure we adapt our structural design and installation to meet the exacting worst case scenario loadings, specific to your installation.
Design
There are many standard designs for School Shade Sails or Playground Canopies, such as the Hypar Sail, Triangular Sail, Square Sail and Trapezium shaped sails. At Shade Sail Blinds, with the use of our form-finding software, we are able to be a bit more creative by incorporate these designs or adapting them to make design and shape that meets your exacting needs. We are then able to work with our engineering department to ensure the final design passes all loading and safety requirements.
