Attaching Sun Shade To Gutter

You simply need to place the screwdriver in the middle of the turnbuckle so that the entire piece rotates.

Attaching sun shade to gutter.

If you have one corner of the sun shade without a turnbuckle usually because you are trying to keep the shade as close as possible to that point then attach this point first. Just attach the hook to the turnbuckle and then slide it into place over the corner of the shade. For one corner it s sometimes better to use a tension strap. The reputable manufacturers will include turnbuckles that can simply be tightened with a screwdriver.

They don t require you to build a permanent structure on the deck. Then go to each corner in turn and join the sun shade to the turnbuckle. Leave at least 8 12 inches of overhang on all sides. Some of the cheaper brands of sail shades don t have these and simply attach directly to the hook.

Use snap hooks or carbines to attach it to the corners of the sail. Attach vertical screens to the extended awning to block the sun when its low in the sky. Roll out the shade cloth across your structure and loosely pull it into position. You don t have to take them down no storage hassles.

The corners of the shade should have grommets or steel rings in place.
