Heavy-Duty 1 5/8” Flat Metal Fittings for Commercial Retail and Industrial Applications
Larger commercial properties require more strength and longer lifespan of products. Using 1 5/8" flat metal connections gives longer life, more versatility, and more beauty to their structural products. Typically, these types of strong heavy gauge connectors are utilized in large commercial garden shade structures on an ongoing basis in retail garden centers, hardware stores, nurseries, and agricultural and farming environments.
Every year major retail garden centers such as Ace Hardware and Lowe’s need to construct large shade structures over huge outdoor display areas of plants and materials. These structures must protect valuable inventory. A 1 5/8” diameter size is preferred for high load carrying capacity, and the flat metal fitting design of our components allows for strong, flush connections to the frame members that are highly resistant to loads and provide excellent rigidity and load distribution.
True industrial grade flat fittings are not readily available from most sources. While true flat fittings are not available from most hardware stores, home improvement centers or online retailers, true and authentic industrial grade 1 5/8 inch flat metal canopy fittings are available through specialized suppliers like Tarps.com. This allows contractors, garden centers, and retail chains to construct shade structures that are safe, functional and scalable.
These heavy-duty fittings are ideal for:
- Retail garden center shade structures
- Hardware store outdoor plant displays
- Commercial nurseries and growing operations
- Agricultural shade systems
- Equipment and inventory protection
- Permanent or semi-permanent outdoor shade installations
High quality steel structures are strong and long lasting. They are our customers’ first choice when they want an effective and long lasting shade structure.
Modular Design for Scalable Shade Structure Systems
As mentioned for homeowners, the modular design of our commercial canopy fittings is one of the greatest advantages. You can begin with a smaller structure and then expand it as the needs of your business grow. This is particularly important for retailers, garden centers, and other commercial businesses which frequently change store layouts and are required to add and remove products to the exterior inventory area.
A further advantage of standardized metal components in steel buildings is the ease of maintenance and repair work. Without having to dismantle the entire system, each component can be replaced individually. This ensures low running costs for the future.
Built for Long-Term Performance and Reliability
Unlike residential applications, commercial garden shade structures can be subjected to very harsh conditions. It is therefore important to chose metal components that are up to the challenge. Not only will they ensure the structural integrity and safety of the structure, but they will also give years of service. Small components are still suitable for domestic applications, but heavy duty 1 5/8" flat metal components are required for more commercial or industrial applications.

High quality metal fittings will help you create a structure that will provide you with long-lasting shade, enhance the experience of your customers and improve your operational efficiency.
