This Burleigh Heads apartment complex needed to protect residents’ vehicles from the harsh Gold Coast sun, and VECTOR Shade Structures delivered an engineered steel structure with a tension shade sail canopy over the car park. The deep navy sail wraps neatly around the parking bays, offering a sleek, modern look that complements the building’s coastal architecture.
The canopy is crafted from Monotec 370 shade fabric, backed by a 15-year warranty, offering excellent UV protection to keep vehicles cooler for longer, while the supporting steel frame is hot dip galvanised for long-term corrosion resistance in the coastal environment. As a tailored shade sail solution, it delivers full coverage over the parking area without dominating the streetscape.
The result is a practical, good-looking addition that adds real value for residents, reflecting VECTOR’s ongoing work providing shade structures for car parks in apartment developments across the Gold Coast.
