About Retractable: RetractaShade
Unlike tension shade sails systems, RetractaShade retractable shade sails are designed for ‘day use only’ meaning they are not designed to be left out in the projection position for longer than what you intend on using the area for. If a retractable shade sail is left out in high wind, or cyclonic conditions, damage may occur that is not covered under any warranty. For this reason, our easy retraction system is not overbearing or complicated, you can easily open and close your RetractaShade Shade.

The RetractaShade Retractable Shade is designed to be used as one individual panel or multiple panels in series. There are no restrictions to the number of panels you can use as part of a system. Each individual panel has a maximum size of 14m2, with a length between 1.2m and 8m, and width between 0.5m and 2.6m. Panels can be arranged in any way to cover the desired area but there must be a suitable structure to fix to at each end of the length of the panel.
Our team can assist with the design process, contact us today for advice and assistance for your perfect retractable shade solution.
The RetractaShade is designed for daily use, not for permanent shade. It should only be extended while in use and retracted when not needed. The RetractaShade Shade System can handle light to moderate wind in the open position. The Retractable Shade should never be extended or left in the open position in winds exceeding 32kmph.
When in the retracted position the RetractaShade Shade can be secured tightly with the included storm strap. The panels can also easily be removed from the wires and secured indoors prior to any storm and reattached later.
