Shade Ports

Protect one of the most valuable assets you’ll ever own.

Shade cloth is a lightweight, cost-effective carport solution, comprising a shade cloth canopy supported by a robust steel framework in either a cantilevered or 4-post configuration. Customers may choose from a wide range of highly UV-stabilized polypropylene shade netting colours. Shade ports can also be used for bus, boat and other vehicle cover, as well as provide shelter for queue locations and sports field seating.

Chromadek is a light, strong, powder-coated, IBR-profile metal sheet used in roofing. It has a zinc coating for durability, and is finished with developed UV-stabilized paints for colour fastness. All of our installations are made-to-measure to customer specifications and requirements. PLEASE NOTE: We do not roof houses.


All our products are manufactured to international quality standards and carry a 2 year warranty.

Cantilever Shade Ports

A cantilever is a rigid structural element that extends horizontally and is supported at one end. These can be pole or wall mounted.

Chromadek Shade Ports

Chromadek provides 100% shade and water proofing, and is able to withstand the elements much longer and provide significantly more protection than any fabric options.

4 Post Shade Ports

Similar to the cantilever option but with cover held in place by corner poles for additional stability. These can be a fixed or moveable configuration.
