ColourTree 7 ft x 11 ft Yellow Waterproof Shade Cloth - Dual

In this review of the ColourTree 7 ft x 11 ft Yellow Waterproof Shade Cloth, the bottom line is simple: pet owners who need a single cover that blocks sun and sheds rain will find clear value here. The product is aimed at people using outdoor dog kennels, coops, playpens or greenhouse panels who want a durable, breathable fabric that still provides privacy. What stands out is the combination of shade and waterproof performance in a lightweight package that installs quickly on standard cages and panels.

Key Features

• Dual protection: Combines effective 90% sunblock with a waterproof layer so pets stay shaded and dry without needing separate covers.
• Durable fabric: Made from 220 GSM 100% pure virgin polyethylene to resist outdoor wear and last through seasons of use.
• Portable design: Lightweight construction makes it easy to move between runs, travel locations, or storage when not in use.
• Easy installation: Grommets and a simple layout allow quick attachment to most standard pet cages and fences with minimal effort.
• Custom sizes available: The product can be ordered in special sizes, which is useful when a standard 7 ft x 11 ft sheet does not fit a particular enclosure.

Who It's For

This shade cloth is best for dog owners, small livestock keepers, and backyard poultry keepers who want a single, tough cover to protect animals from both sun and rain. It suits anyone wanting improved privacy and heat reduction while keeping airflow for animal comfort.

It is less appropriate for those needing a decorative backyard screen or a fully opaque insulated roof; if you need heavy insulation or a rigid structure for permanent roofing, consider a different material designed specifically for that purpose.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Good quality, heavy 220 GSM fabric that stands up to outdoor use.
• Provides effective shade and privacy while still allowing airflow to reduce heat buildup.
• Portable and simple to install on standard cages, making it versatile for travel or temporary setups.
• Custom sizing available in the US for nonstandard enclosures.

Cons

• Not a rigid roofing solution-best used as a tarp-style cover rather than a structural panel.
• Color and finish may show signs of weathering over long outdoor exposure, which is typical for mesh fabrics.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this work on a standard dog kennel?
Yes, it is designed to install easily on most standard-sized pet cages using the grommets; measure your kennel to confirm the 7 ft x 11 ft size fits or request a custom size.

Does it block heat as well as sun?
The 90% sunblock and breathable mesh reduce direct sun and help lower heat buildup while still allowing airflow for pet comfort.

Is it fully waterproof?
It is described as waterproof and sheds rain, but it functions as a tarp-style cover rather than a rigid roof; proper overlap and secure fastening improve performance in heavy weather.
