Outdoor Shade & Shelter

Adventure Shade Structures offers innovative shade and shelter solutions designed to ensure our customers are protected from mother nature’s harsh outdoor elements, including harmful UV Rays, extreme heat, wind and rain. As an essential component of overall design and usability, shade protects not only the community in which it is placed but also your outdoor recreation investment for years to come.

Adventure Shade Structures has over 20 years of experience providing high-quality engineered shade structures and metal shelters for a variety of outdoor venues. An Adventure Shade Expert — with their unparalleled skill and expertise in design creation and installation — will guide you throughout each step of the design, manufacturing and installation processes.

Why Do You Need Permanent Canopy Structures for Your Site?

Metal Shelters and Commercial Shade Structures are an important asset to your site because of several factors, including:

Shade

The sun can be a danger to both children and adults, especially if they’re outdoors for hours at a time. They can suffer anything from first-degree sunburns and dehydration to exhaustion and heatstroke. Unprotected park equipment can even heat to the point that it’s too hot to touch. Playground shade structures cover your entire play area, dropping overall temperatures up to 20 degrees.

Appearance

Marketing matters. The use of large outdoor shade structures extends past the simple playground and park. From restaurants and entertainment venues to daycares and HOAs, fabric shade structures have been used to define a space, brand a business and create a welcoming atmosphere — assuring areas look great while also providing functionality.

Investment

These structures protect your investment. If you’ve invested in quality play equipment, you don’t want it to age prematurely or show fading colors. Even if you have commercial grade equipment, the sun can damage it over time. Commercial canopies shade your park and recreation products, protecting your investment from up to 97 percent of harmful UV damage. Aside from offering protection, allowing a more aesthetic appearance and protecting your investment, our canopy structures are designed specifically to meet your needs. Adventure Shade Structures can customize an order to meet your specifications.

What to Keep in Mind When Looking For Shade Canopy Solutions?

When looking at canopies for sale, there are several factors you should take into account, including:

1. Durability

Durability ensures that your investment is long-lasting and that safety remains a top priority. You also want to be sure your shade investment is able to withstand the outdoor weather conditions. Adventure Shade commercial shade structures are more durable and can withstand inclement weather, making them a smarter long-term investment. They’re specifically constructed for tension structures with the natural strength of knitted lock-stitch construction — using a blend of monofilament yarn and tape produces a dimensionally stable material that’s fray and tear resistant.

2. Material

Utilizing the highest quality commercial grade HDPE fabric ensures dimensional stability and stretch resistance for maximum performance as well as exceptional sun blocking capability. Adventure Shade Structures’ design team will assist you in choosing the best option for your space and climate — superior durability that lasts year after year.

3. Design

Depending on the what type of space or venue you’re looking to place your shade structure in, the size and style needed will vary. We offer a large selection of both standard and custom designed shade structures that can accommodate a wide variety of outdoor venues. Whether you are looking to cover a picnic area, aquatic venue, playground, parking lot or any other outdoor space. Adventure Shade offers various shapes, sizes and styles — whatever your needs may be, we have a solution for you.

4. Color

In addition to improving the aesthetic appeal of your outdoor space, the color of your shade structure should complement the existing surroundings. Maybe you want to choose a pop of color that adds excitement, or you may wish to opt for a more calming natural shade. You can even select colors that match your school colors or company branding. We have a vast array of colors options for the powder coated frames and fabric canopies. An Adventure Play Expert — who specializes in design — can assist you in making the right color choice.

Above all, size and design can vary greatly from one shade structure to another.
