Introduction

Give the immediate implication of relaxation with a Hexagon Umbrella. No matter what type of outdoor space is being shaded, an umbrella conjures up the idea of comfort. The central post limits the number of footers that are required. This makes for a large amount of free space under the canopy.

Easy Removal Feature

The most notable part of this type of shade, is the Easy Removal feature. Often referred to as a “glide elbow,” Superior Shade’s system makes caring for a shade easy. Using a drill, the shade can be tightened or loosened in minutes. For those regions where there are drastic weather changes or multiple shades to care for, the Easy Removal feature is a must have. It takes a large amount of the hard labor out of removing shades.

Venues for This Shade

Unlike the more typical umbrella that is rather small, this commercial grade version is much larger making it work in a variety of venues. Table umbrellas that might be purchased for home use often cool just one table of average size. Coming in sizes up to 24 feet across, a cluster of tables or poolside furniture can fit beneath one shade. At the park, a single umbrella can provide shade for multiple benches for parents.

Cover a playground in a protective shadow with one. Create a mystical play space by grouping a variety of sizes, heights, and colors over a play area. While playgrounds might have roofs, the actual protection provided by them is very limited. They are typically very small and placed too high to add any significant benefit. Children still spend the majority of their time on the play set in direct sunlight and the equipment is subjected to the unyielding rays of the sun. Solve both problems by adding a umbrellas to shade everything at once.

Benefits of Using a Shade

More than playgrounds last longer out of the sun. Art installations are much more likely to last with permanent shade. Picnic tables to fill an outdoor seating area at a college add up quickly in cost. Adding a year or two to their lifespans can potentially save thousands of dollars over time.

When picking a shade, it can be hard to know which shape is most appropriate for your specific space. The Hexagon Umbrella provides a more traditional look opposed to the Square Umbrella. The almost round edges are reminiscent of poolside shades. With six arms to hold the fabric, it is able to be larger than other umbrellas.

Sealed Engineer Drawings

Some shades may require additional structural information, drawings and specs.  Playground Outfitters offers Sealed Engineer Drawings for an added cost from our manufacturer. Shades, as commercial structures, are held to building codes. This makes getting a permit to install one a necessity. For those shades going into areas that are prone to hurricane strength winds, stringent city codes, or heavy snow loads, it is recommended to apply for these Sealed Engineer Drawings for each shade to make permit processing much simpler.

Materials

Each umbrella is crafted from commercial grade materials. Designed to minimize water damage, the powder coat painted steel frame handles daily weather. The fabric is made from PTFE fibers. Similar to those found in non-stick cookware, the fabric is 98% UV resistant.

Colors

Both powder coat paint and shade fabric come in a large array of hues. Tones range from light to dark as well as neutral to bright. All colors boast a considerable opacity providing a strong color even in the palest of shades. Before placing an order, make sure to find the right combination to match your venue.
