Commercial Shade. Engineered Right.
From TopGolf installations to senior living sanctuaries, we build shade structures that perform under Arizona's most demanding conditions.
Our Story
Built On Precision, Proven At Scale
Apex Sail Shades was founded with a singular focus: commercial-grade shade engineering. Not residential canopies — engineered tensioned membrane structures for facilities that demand performance, durability, and measurable ROI.
We cut our teeth on TopGolf Utah installations totaling $132K, proving our engineering in one of the most scrutinized commercial environments in the country. From there, we expanded into senior living communities where shade isn't a luxury — it's a safety requirement.
Now we're bringing those same proven commercial shade solutions to Arizona, where the sun is relentless and the stakes are even higher.

Our Standards
No Shortcuts. No Compromises.
