How are your shade sails measured?

The measurement of our shade sails is a straightforward process that ensures you get the perfect fit for your space. We measure from corner to corner. Each corner of our shade sails includes a stainless steel ring. When we say we measure corner to corner, specifically referring to the distance from the edge of one ring to the edge of the opposing ring. This method gives us the 'straight line' or 'edge length' measurement of the shade sail.
