Is the "MP" stamp on the mesh just for photo protection? I want to hang vertically to use as patio shade.

Ours has no stamp I can see. I think it will work well as a sun shade horizontally or vertically.

Mine has no MP stamp on shade. I have it on greenhouse for shade. Should work on wall

You can probably use any shade out there provided it has that right sized notch in it. Which means it's best that you have them physically together since the photos here aren't detailed enough to make that comparison.

not sure but you would want your bottom to not be too close to ground when sitting so to sit say chair height and then the top ropes and be adjusted to what you are going to hang it from. I use beam from patio cover. Hope this helps, Denise

We live in Miami and have fairly windy days in the summer with heavy rain. We have installed our canopy using aircraft cable to trees at the perimeter of our yard, tightened up with turnbuckles and removable using lockable steel caribiners at the canopy corners. We just didn't want the look of giant poles, so our canopy looks more like a floating sail overhead. :-) Also, if you use a post you actually need to sink the poles deeper than 3 feet...the rule of thumb is 1/3 below ground, 2/3 above. So for a sail mounted 8' high, you would need a 12' pole with 4' buried. Steel pipe 3.5-4" is recommended, especially for bigger sails in a windy area.

No but we use a sarong we bought in maui to create shade on any of the three sides We use clothes pins to secure it

It's pictured upside down. The umbrella hole in the top half will allow you to adjust the angle of the umbrella. Whoever assembled it for the photo just got it wrong, which is quite easy to do.

this has very small velcro strips which doesnt stay. I would not recommend this product for ur intended use. Unless you can attach longer velcro or something to fasten it to ur awning. As for the material, it is good and does block the sun.

Rephrase the question. It's for external use, and mine is out 365 days aa year,so probably if you are looking for shade.

I think you could do that - I use mine to protect a certain planter when it is really hot out - this umbrella doesn't work in the outdoor table that takes an umbrella - the pole is too thin

Hi. I haven't opened it for awhile but don't recall there being a mesh in front..We zippered it and I remember having to open it to peer out. In hindsight I would have gotten better use from a simpler umbrella style cabana- essentially a shade with two stakes. This one seemed a little claustrophobic for the kids. Good luck!

I don't think so. It's a gravity thing. The shade simply has a nice evenly dispersed weighted sash for easy up, easy down. However, when we bought these for my parents windows, initially the intent was to hang them at the center of the windows, where they had installed a shelf for plants to sit in the morning light. If you;re looking for open space at the top of the window, but privacy at the bottom, as my parents were, and you have something to anchor the adhesive to(hence the shelf mid window), then you'd be able to use the shade for the bottom half of the window only. Hope this helps. They love it for its intended use. I don't think so. It's a gravity thing. The shade simply has a nice evenly dispersed weighted sash for easy up, easy down.

It would block out some sun but not all, I wouldn't use it that way. It isn't made to anchor in the ground either.

I did not set posts. I built an arched frame over a trampoline and used it as a shade cover in that manner. I will tell you that the corners do hang out further than the center of the shade cloth and there is some stretch to the material in and of itself.Whatever the measurement is , I would allow an extra six inches in the pole settings and buy at least two adjustable straps to mount it with. You might want to check out Harbor Frieght. Also, a slight pitch will help you get leaves, etc off the top of the shade in a much more easy manner than a flat top. Good luck.

It is NOT a glossy surface. A carefully applied stamp should work just fine.

The walls are attached to the legs by Velcro so there is some play to make it fit. No need to be super precise. Adhesive backed Velcro stick on surfaces are provided, enough to put on all four sides of the frame. I used to have a quick shade canopy and I have to say there is no drastic difference. I am pretty happy with it.

It hangs pretty straight. There is a bar attached to the bottom of the shade which keeps both sides even. There are two sliding hooks attached to the bottom of the bar which allow securing the bottom of the shade to a study object (patio post etc) to keep the shades from flapping in a breeze.

Sorry, I bought this to mount my daughters diploma and then gave it to her so I don't know if there is a hook to hang vertically. There is nothing about the frame itself on the display side that would prevent it from being hung vertically and it is a very beautiful frame with nice matting.
