Why choose wooden poles for your shade sail?

Wood is a noble and timeless material that blends perfectly into all garden styles, from the most modern to the most rustic. Unlike metal or aluminum poles, wood offers natural insulation and better resistance to temperature variations. Our poles are autoclave-treated for optimal protection against moisture, insects, and fungi, ensuring increased longevity even outdoors. Explore our selection and find the pole that will harmonize with your shade sail and furniture.

The concrete advantages of Ombre Intérieur wooden poles

  • Superior quality materials: Our poles are made from Scots pine or Nordic spruce, sourced from sustainably managed forests. Class 4 autoclave treatment ensures exceptional resistance to weather and direct contact with the ground.
  • Dimensions suitable for all projects: Available in square sections (7x7 cm, 9x9 cm, 12x12 cm) and lengths from 2.40 m to 3.60 m, our poles are suitable for both small triangular sails and large rectangular canopies.
  • Careful finish: Each pole is planed and chamfered for a smooth, splinter-free appearance. You can leave them raw for a natural look or paint/stain them as you wish.
  • Included accessories: Each pole comes with a galvanized steel mounting plate for easy and secure installation. Protective caps are also provided to prevent moisture from the top.

How to choose your wooden poles for a shade sail?

Choosing your poles depends on several essential criteria: the size of your sail, the type of ground (lawn, slab, bare earth), and the desired aesthetic effect. For a standard 3x4 meter shade sail, we recommend 9x9 cm section poles with a height of 2.70 m. For larger sails or windy areas, opt for 12x12 cm. Remember to plan for ground anchoring with concrete or use screw-in base plates for a no-dig installation. Fall for our wooden poles and benefit from a turnkey solution for your shading.

Installation tips for a perfect hold

To ensure the stability of your structure, it is crucial to follow a few simple steps. Dig holes at least 50 cm deep (or 60 cm in very windy areas) and set the poles with ready-mix concrete. Allow 48 hours to dry before attaching your sail. If you opt for a slab installation, use screw-in base plates with suitable anchors. Also, consider slightly tilting your poles outward (about 5 degrees) to better distribute the sail's tension. Find all the necessary accessories in our collection for a successful installation.

Our range of wooden poles: styles and finishes

At Ombre Intérieur, we offer a variety of poles to suit all tastes and budgets. Whether you prefer a raw, natural look or a smooth finish ready for painting, our collection meets all your expectations. Explore the different options and be seduced by the quality of our products.

Raw poles vs. planed poles: which to choose?

  • Raw poles: Ideal for a rustic or countryside style, they retain their natural appearance with surface irregularities. Perfect for bohemian gardens or cabin atmospheres.
  • Planed poles: Smooth and uniform, they offer a modern, clean finish. Easy to stain or paint, they integrate perfectly into contemporary decors.

Maintenance and durability of your wooden poles

To extend the life of your poles, minimal maintenance is recommended. Apply a stain or protective oil once a year to preserve the color and resistance of the wood. Avoid direct contact with damp ground by using the supplied base plates. In case of stains, simple cleaning with soapy water is sufficient. With these simple steps, your wooden poles for shade sails will remain beautiful and sturdy for years. Discover our collection and enjoy free shipping on all orders.
