How to Install Shade Sails | Mitre 10 Easy As DIY 

Thanks so much for sharing the love Eric, glad you enjoyed our video! 🤗 ^Cam

Took me 5 min to understand the joke, good one lol!

@@adieface Wanna trade citizenship?! 😉 I'd like to immigrate to AUS.

I couldn't stop laughing when he was measuring 2.5 meters off his d!ck :D :D As a foreigner, listening to various different dialects/accents of the English language is a real treat! Even tough I'm a linguist myself, I can't help bursting out with laughter :D

I don't recall hearing about caulk in South AMERICA

Not gonna lie, made me have a little giggle too 😉👍 ^Billie

@@mitre10nz 🤙🏼

I'm rollin' on the floor. Freakin' hilarious. You can tell he has no idea how that sounds to us Americans. I wonder if they say "dick" the same way as "deck"...

your wife likes d***** it's a good thing... tell her to make a video of her

Hopefully the people coming out to mark them know what they're doing. The cable tv company was off by several feet in my yard. I think he and the electrical guy hit the same line underground because those marks were very close (red and orange spray paint). I was installing corrugated pipe for my downspout. I thought I was hitting tree roots when I almost severed the cable lines. It was like 10 feet from the orange line he sprayed.

My husband is a utility locator and he has horror stories of homeowners that did not call for a locate to dig something - fence,deck, etc and hit some sort of line. If you are at fault in can cost you lots of $$$$. Call- it’s free, at least in Ontario

Glad to hear it helped 👍 ^Matt

Thank you so much for your feedback Steve, really appreciate it! 🥰 ^Cam

Great to hear! ^Charlie

Out of curiosity, did you manage to fix it?

All done?

It's like watching a movie with no solid ending, what ultimately happened!? 🤷🏻‍♀️

She moved! No longer needed the shade.

Even after death, he gets nagged.

...The size of your wHaT?! 😂

Awesome well can u Plz share them with me because I’m looking to easily install one this month ?

Glad to hear it Gerardo ^Charlie

@@mitre10nz what was the D shackles used for. I don't think I saw them used.

You like it when he says "deick"?

I have a video for reference

Looks so much better too.

It might not seem it from the weather at the moment, but summer is so close and we'll all be enjoying our time out there soon enough. Do you think you'll give this project a go, Jay? ^Kane

@@mitre10nz I live in US, summer is here and this video showed me exactly what I want to put up for my back porch .

So glad to hear it. We'd be keen to hear how you got on with it, pop back and let us know ^Kane

500mm

Haha yeah I couldn't help but crack up at the end when the shade sail was complete the shade from the sale was against the wall of the house.

The sun is setting, nothing to do with positioning....

@@Robertye112 no shit... Don't you think he could have filmed it with the sun at high noon instead of staring into the sun like a fuck head?

@@GRITBONE I guess they just filmed it when he was done. Whats the big deal?

That was sun and the whole purpose of a shade is to provide shade ....Obviously it was mounted too high ... and he should have angle it also .....a good craft man nut not a good engineer/designer ... please take in consideration the direction of sun when mounting

Row house? Is that a houseboat?

I know im randomly asking but does someone know a way to get back into an instagram account? I somehow forgot the login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me

@Zayden Raphael thanks for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

@Zayden Raphael It did the trick and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D Thank you so much, you really help me out!

@Achilles Julio glad I could help :)

+Don Green I don't mean to be crude but damn! that is what I heard too and I haven't laughed out loud in a long time..not used to hearing this kind of accent. Caliboy here. Thanks for the video and the laugh man.

+Don Green I'm not attach anything to a dick or cutting anything that sounds like a post....lol! Good laugh... Easy As. :P

uut

yes, must have a sore one by now

1:05 "...now the center of my ass..." LOL Love the Kiwis.

Hi Daniel, these can be used for the fixing accessories that you’ll need to secure your shade sail. ^Cam

It was the deick.

I wouldn't think so as it's going thru the fascia and into the rafters

rebekah rumbel OH! Thanks for explaining what he did! What did he do with the 90 degree metal piece? I’m a lady going to install myself. I’m pretty handy just don’t understand all he says. Didn’t think using facia was good idea but you explained that! I’ll just have to figure out how to check on rafters! Hmmm...doesn’t work for him, does it! And won’t work unless sun is coming straight down! Lol soooo...won’t be good on my patio after 2PM! Sigh....

@@robinholbrook6576 I think if you had exposed rafters you could use them to brace the rafter and fascia boards--help reinforce that connection.

@@nickstone7834 Thanks Mark! After more research I’ve found the sail won’t work for me. I have to have something with an adjustable angle depending upon the time of day and where the sun is, I bought a large cantilevered umbrella and the then a smaller one that can be moved around. I’m in South Texas and in the summer the sun just bakes us but changes angles through the long summer season: April-September. Sometimes e sun is directly above and sometimes it comes at us from the West. It’s not easy living in the Sunbelt! Yay San Antonio: gets too hot in the summer and not cold enough in the winter!

@@robinholbrook6576 ah yeah these aren't moveable to adjust with sun

Cheers Syd 😂 ^Billie

Bahaha 😂

He's gonna attach it to his wHaT!? 😂😂😂

@@stellaallbright4750 😂😂

Hey Jason, we'd recommend having a chat to the team at your local store for some personalised advice - they'll also know the conditions in your area a bit better 👍 ^Cam

Feel free to read our full instructions here to make sure your sun sail is sturdy: www.mitre10.co.nz/guides-and-advice/guide/how-to-put-up-a-shade-sail

Personally wasn’t impressed myself. Seen way bigger decks than that

it's not gonna protect you from the rain

@@Monsieur405 I think he means to run off the sail so it won't stay on the top, encouraging rot.

@@janestewart3231 The material isn't waterproof. Rain will pass through it.

Obviously it was mounted too high ... and he should have angle it also .....a good craft man nut not a good engineer/designer

Concur, as much as I appreciate his other videos, this entire project puzzles... Why would anybody want a shade in the heat-absorbing color of black.... one that doesn't cover much, one that will feed the rain back towards the entrance, and something less than readily easy to put up and take down for the winter. Must be a "Kiwi" thing. Have never seen one of these "shade sail" contraptions anywhere in the states.... (nor do I think it likely to catch on, certainly not in the south)

Hahahaha oh dear

@@dominicm6144 He actually says "see if I can see that". It's just a mixture of the way he says it and his accent (see ifican see that)

Last time I checked, there were no kangaroos in NZ. A kiwi or two, yes.

😂😂

Sounds like you got deck envy😜

Kiwi bru

@@hman2912 fair suck of the sav, mate.

😂 I was thinking the same.

He said they were 125mm so that 5x5 not 4x4

Hey Mark, this would depend on your shade sail, we'd recommend having a chat to the team at your local store for some personalised advice 👍 ^Kyle

Most shade sails are not waterproof unless you are using a waterproof fabric, however, we do suggest varying heights of your posts/attachment points to encourage water run-off. ^Matt

@@mitre10nz 👍 thanks Matt

Trevor Dunlop year uuiihhhhjiioo

I like your ideas and your deick

Hi there! Dig your hole 600mm deep and fill with concrete 🙌 ^Cam

Put your ear up to his door you might hear more stuff.

Hi Jay, it might change the amount of sun they're getting so if they're very particular about the amount of direct light they receive then you might want to consider that ^Matt

@@mitre10nz thanks i will look into it

nup

Yes🤣🤣🤣🤣

😂😂😂

You do realize that the time of day has to do with the direction of of the sun and the time he planes to be outside.

Quick set concrete isn't as strong as regular concrete, and as such, isn't to be used in structural applications like footings for buildings or shade sail masts.

110 that’s cute

Yeah not that hot in N.Z pretty sure. It is in Australia

@@fiveftzombie where you live in Arizona, cuz sorry to tell you but it gets way hotter than. 115, now that climate change is in full force we will get hotter.

@@cdwoods4754 I live in Australia

125 in Phoenix AZ Only dumb butts would build a city in the desert then complain about hot it is.

Metres

Closer to 135 square feet. Its ok, not everyone is good at math.

...in the neighbour's garden. The killer heat is mid-afternoon heat. A shade CURTAIN would be better, like in Spain. People roll DOWN as well as OVER. And have seating areas on the north side of the house, or the east side.
