HOMPER Awning Attachment Set, Heavy Duty Sun Shade Sail Stainless Steel Hardware Kit for Garden Triangle and Square, Rectangle, Fixing Accessories

These are nice and heavy duty. I bought these to hold my shade canvas for the pool area. They adjust very easy. I would buy again.

This kit worked great for installing my sun shade! I only ended up using these mounts without the hooks but the hooks give you various other options should you need them. Highly recommend!

nice package. the bracing hook brackets are sturdy enough for the sails, the mounting bracket could use heavier duty screws as I used #10 wood screws to mount to soffit and posts. a good deal, good product...

Ease of useLooks great

Great product thanks

These were perfect to install our shade sail above our dog run. At first glance, I was worried they would be a little flimsy, but once installed, these did the trick perfectly without a huge, bulky look! These helped extend the corners a bit too so we could get the sail nice and taught.

Quality,sturdy,easy to install

I used these turnbuckles to hold up a 12 x 16 foot shade sail. The hardware is smallish and light duty, but I decided to go with it and see how it does. Heavier duty hardware is easily available at Amazon, Home Depot and Lowes where you can see what you are getting without online photos...these are much smaller that I thought they would be but I don't have an extreme environment and will see how they hold up. They are easy to use, with hooks on the ends as you can see, so if severe weather threatens they can be easily slipped off to store the sail if desired. They allow about 3 inches of tightening/tensioning of the rope ( I used poly rope) so when installing the sail you want the turnbuckle opened to the maximum "separation" of the screw gap in the middle....the wider the gap the more you can tension the rope; as you turn the turnbuckle the screws get closer together, thus pulling the end hooks together and tightening the shade corners. When. installing the sail or whatever cover you are using, tie the rope to the 'D" clip on the sail corner or to a carabiner and slip it into the hook, then at the opposite corner pull the rope--as tight as you can--and attach the turnbuckle to it (for this one just slip the rope knot over the hook or use a carabiner). Remember always have the turnbuckle screws as wide apart as possible when you start. There will always be a bit of slack in the rope as the sail itself stretches so really pull it tight; maybe have a helper hold the tension while you slip the hook onto the loop or knot in the rope. Then turn the turnbuckle to add tension to the rope. These turnbuckles are very small and thin metal but they do hold; you may want or need to get heavier duty ones at Depot or Lowes. The kit comes with small carabiners; I chose to use them for the rope and if more tension is needed I can just slip them off and instantly have shorter (1 2/2-2") less distance to get even more tension on the rope. As time goes by re-tensioning will likely be needed at times which is typical.I'll see how this smallish hardware holds up over time; if I was starting over I'd order a heavier duty set with longer turnbuckles for more tensioning distance. Note that no matter what hardware, tensioning is difficult for single person to hold the rope, stretch it, and clip or slide into place without losing the maximum tension from the pull. I used much heavier duty eyebolts instead of the flimsy attachments that were in this kit...which were small metal plates with a loop, with 4 holes and very small screws and ridiculous plastic "wall anchors". Put that stuff away for indoor light duty projects. Better yet, look at the photos and get heavy duty big threaded eyebolts or hooks, and buy the turnbuckles separately to match the size of your sail and "over-engineer" it. Note in the photos the size of the eyebolt relative to the turnbuckle in this kit, and the second photo shows that I added a second (blue) turnbuckle, larger than the one in the kit (silver) to give me additional tension capability by removing the blue one if it starts to sag. Do your best to keep the sail under tension without sags.
