When choosing shade cloth, do I need to leave some spare space for fixing?

When choosing a shade cloth, it is usually necessary to leave some space for fixing. This is because when installing shade cloth, in order to ensure its stability and wind resistance, its edges or specific parts need to be fixed to brackets, walls, or other structures. These spare parts, commonly referred to as' surplus' or 'redundant length', are the key to ensuring that the sunshade fabric can be securely installed and effectively resist external factors such as wind, rain, etc.
Specifically, leaving some spare space can help you adjust the position and tension of the shade cloth more flexibly, ensuring that it can tightly fit the installation area and effectively block sunlight or rain. Meanwhile, during fixation, these vacant parts can also provide more fixing points, thereby increasing the stability of the shade cloth.
Therefore, when choosing shade cloth, in addition to considering factors such as material, color, and transparency, it is also necessary to pay attention to whether its size is sufficient to ensure that there is enough space for fixing during installation.
