Difference Between 50%, 70% and 80% Shade Net

The 80% shade net is best where the customer needs maximum shade and stronger sun protection compared to 50% or 70%.

How to Use Shade Net 80%

The shade net can be used by fixing it over or around a support structure. It can be installed as a roof cover, side screen, privacy net, fence cover, or agricultural shade cover.

For best performance, install it on a strong frame and secure the edges properly to prevent tearing from wind pressure.

Installation Process

Step 1: Measure the Area

Measure the length and width of the area to be covered. Confirm if the net will be used as a roof shade, side screen, fence cover, greenhouse cover, or parking shade.

Step 2: Prepare the Support Structure

Use a strong frame such as:

• Steel pipes
• Wooden posts
• Angle bars
• Wire rope
• Chain link fence
• Existing greenhouse or shade structure

The structure must be firm, especially in windy areas.

Step 3: Cut the Shade Net

Cut the shade net according to the required measurements. Leave extra allowance on the edges for folding, tying, joining, or fixing.

Step 4: Fix the Net on the Frame

Attach the net using:

• Cable ties
• Shade net clips
• Binding wire
• Rope
• Hooks
• Nails with washers
• Staples for wooden frames

Fix the net evenly across the frame.

Step 5: Do Not Overstretch

Pull the net firmly but avoid overstretching. Overstretching can weaken the mesh and cause tearing, especially on the edges.

Step 6: Reinforce the Edges

For long-term installation, fold the edges and stitch them, or use rope edging. This helps the shade net last longer and resist wind damage.

Step 7: Install With a Slight Slope

For roof-style installation, keep a slight slope so that rainwater does not collect on top of the net.

Step 8: Final Inspection

Check all corners, joints, and fixing points to ensure the shade net is tight, secure, and properly installed.

Maintenance Tips

• Avoid sharp objects during installation
• Do not overstretch the net
• Check fixing points regularly, especially after strong wind
• Clean with water when dusty
• Store unused pieces in a dry place
• Reinforce edges for permanent outdoor use
