How much does a shadeport cost?

Table of Contents

What is the average cost of a shadeport?

Most shadeports in South Africa cost between R6,000 and R12,000 for a standard single bay. Double bays typically range from R12,000 to R20,000 depending on structure type, height, and finish.

What factors affect the price of a shadeport?

Size

Larger shadeports cost more because of additional materials and fabrication.

Frame Material

Galvanised steel or powder-coated frames last longer and are more expensive than plain painted steel.

Installation Location

Hard-to-reach or sloped areas may require extra labour, which increases the price.

Customisation

Branding, custom colours, or extra height can push the price higher.

Is installation included in the price?

Some suppliers include installation in the quoted price, but many separate the product and labour costs. Always confirm this upfront when comparing quotes.

How does fabric choice impact the cost?

High-density shade cloth with UV protection costs more than basic materials. Branded or premium fabrics can raise the cost by 10 to 30 percent.

How long does a shadeport last?

A well-installed shadeport with a good quality net can last 8 to 12 years. Steel frames last even longer, often over 15 years with proper maintenance.

Is a shadeport worth the investment?

Yes. Shadeports protect vehicles from UV damage, reduce heat buildup, and extend the life of your paint and interior. For complexes and businesses, they also improve property value and presentation.
