QUICKLASH CANOPY ATTACHMENT SYSTEM

When you order a replacement canopy cover, we include bungee attaching hardware to help secure the cover to your canopy frame. Below is an overview of the Quicklash attachment system and its benefits.

 

The Quicklash canopy attachment system offers a user-friendly, easy-to-install design with increased strength and durability compared to traditional attachment methods. Sewn into the interior of the cover, Quicklash consists of a woven webbing fabric strip with reinforced, thermal-cut lacing holes spaced approximately every three inches. This system allows for customizable attachment points, enabling users to install the included bungees or other fastening hardware at various locations along the canopy edges. By eliminating the need for grommets or D-rings, Quicklash provides a cleaner and more secure attachment method.

 

The Quicklash webbing is further reinforced with Armor Bar, a high-tenacity polyester yarn that enhances tear resistance and overall durability. The 2-1/8" wide Quicklash webbing allows for a quick and customizable installation, featuring 1" lacing holes spaced every 3 inches. The canopy cover is secured using Quicklash webbing and the supplied bungees. The 1/4" stretchable, nylon-covered rubber bungees connect to any of the 1" lacing holes and are then secured to each designated attachment point on the existing canopy frame. Once all bungees are installed, even tension is distributed around the perimeter, ensuring a secure and properly fitted cover that stays in place.

SHORESTATION CANOPY FRAME MEASURING ASSISTANCE

Below, we provide a guide on how to measure your canopy frame to determine the correct cover size. ShoreStation Legacy style aluminum canopy frames feature 4" round aluminum side frame tubes that extend from front to back. At each end of the side frame tube, a bracket secures two canopy bows, forming the canopy ends. The frame’s rounded peak top is created by curved canopy bows that connect on both ends to the 4" round side frame tube.

When measuring for length, note that you must measure the length of the 4" canopy frame side tube and then add two feet. The total measurement (side tube length + two feet) determines the correct canopy cover length.

• Length Measurement:  Length of 4" round aluminum side tube + 2 feet
• Width Measurement:  Interior width of lower canopy rail measured on a centerline from left to right

Important Note:  Canopy covers are custom and built to order, each is specfic to the frame make and size.  It is important that the correct make and size canopy cover is ordered. Canopies returned due to incorrect size or make ordering errors are subject to restocking fees and in some cases may not be returnable.  If replacing an existing cover, we strongly encourage measuring the frame and checking for a canopy tag for size information or contact the canopy frame manufacturer.  If you have any fit related questions after reviewing measuring instructions, please contact us. If contacting us for sizing assistance, please have images of the canopy frame in question available and measurements as outlined above.
