Product Information
Las Vegas Shade Company L.L.C has only the highest quality shade
canopies fabricated right here in the United States. Utilizing
superior materials along with proven technology, Las Vegas Shade
Company L.L.C is able to supply a diversified line of custom and
standard shade structures for almost any application. If you're
covering a play area in a private backyard, or covering an entire
parking lot, we have the solution. Las Vegas Shade Company L.L.C
structures are engineered approved to withstand extreme wind loads
(rated at 100mph).
There are a variety of roof styles available. Standard heights range
from 6' to 10'. Structures taller than 10' are priced upon
application. The structures are hot-dip galvanized inside and out.
Structures can also be powder coated for an additional cost.
We encourage clients not to compromise their satisfaction by purchasing
cheaper "cookie cutter" structures imported from foreign countries.
Steel Structures & Framework
-
Steelwork is "Hot-dip Galvanized" inside and out, unless Powder
Coating option is exercised. The components are ventilated during
fabrication so that the inside is dipped as well. This provides the
Maximum Corrosion Resistance.
- Engineer designed to meet local building codes.
- High wind load ratings.
-
Structures either affixed directly to existing concrete slab or
bolted to reinforced concrete footings.
-
With cable tension design, vast amounts of space can be protected
with a minimum of upright columns.
-
Enjoy the convenience of a portable structure (they can be
dismantled in less than an hour) with the stability and endurance
of a permanent fixture!
