Attaching sun shade to gutter.

Start with a pergola arbor or another structure you wish to cover with the shade cloth. Use snap hooks or carbines to attach it to the corners of the sail. You don t have to take them down no storage hassles. Attach vertical screens to the extended awning to block the sun when its low in the sky.

Attach shade cloth to one of the longest sides first the edge closest to your house. Roll out the shade cloth across your structure and loosely pull it into position. Then go to each corner in turn and join the sun shade to the turnbuckle. They don t require you to build a permanent structure on the deck.

Retractable awnings provide instant shade or quickly roll up when you don t need them. The reputable manufacturers will include turnbuckles that can simply be tightened with a screwdriver. Some of the cheaper brands of sail shades don t have these and simply attach directly to the hook. The corners of the shade should have grommets or steel rings in place.

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