Built to Protect. Built to Last.

Our sunshades benefit from the same reputation as our boat lifts. We only build what we can stand behind, making sure everything with the Golden name will stand the test of time. Whether you're relaxing, entertaining, or preparing for a day on the water, Golden sunshades deliver the comfort and protection you need.

All parts are fabricated in house and our shops are equipped with modern CNC cutters, drills, and equipment to deliver a precise fit and finish. Our Heavy-Duty (HD) canopy features the 8" slotted Side Rail (patent pending). It's the strongest canopy Side Rail in the industry, equipped with a T-Slot system for convenient adjustment. It offers a sleek 19° roof pitch to shed water and keep your boat protected, while leaving your view open. All Side Rails are fully welded aluminum, so they are built for rugged saltwater, coastal, and cold weather environments - without any bolts or screws in the assembly. Around the perimeter is a round bar bungee tie-off system, which reduces wear on bungees in comparison to a flat bar system. This tie-off system is also stronger and much more convenient for seasonal and storm removal than a continuously tied bungee system. Our Bows, which are the "ribs" of the frame, are a single rolled piece of round tube, as opposed to two-pieces joined together with 4-way couplers. This single piece design has many benefits: it creates a much stronger resistance to down-force pressure and shaking caused by high winds, it greatly minimizes the use of modular parts and self-drilling screws, and it ensures that our Center Spans (which create the "spine" of the frame) have a straight and true fit every time. Every canopy comes with Adjustable Leg Uprights, which have been conveniently designed to incorporate full height/fore/aft adjustability. Our Kicker and Lateral Support Brackets are also adjustable, which eliminates drilling holes in the frame.

All of our fabrics have been chosen to withstand the harshest elements - but so have our competitors. What makes our tops so special is that after they are fully heat welded together, they are reinforced with our bartack sewing machine equipped with Gore Tenara PTFE thread which will not ever fade or rot. This virtually eliminates bungee strap failure, a common issue which can be the beginning of the end for a canopy top. Our vinyl bungee straps maintain the same beautiful aesthetic as the rest of the top and have a much longer lifespan than black nylon/webbing that we commonly see. We take special care in our factory to conveniently pre-fit the top with bungees and roll them for easy and fast installation onto your frame. This also "rolls" into the installation, where we train our installers to fasten the bungees from the center outwards, pulling out any wrinkles and achieving a tight, precise fit. Our corners feature a squared finish to match the edge of the frame and are equipped with extra straps for durability. The fact that we have over 30 color options and can ship them anywhere in a box is just icing on the cake.

We have a network of dealers all around the world that we work through to sell and install our canopies. We vet our dealers to make sure they have the equipment, people, and knowledge to get the job done right. Give us a call today and we will connect you with one of our expert installers to bring your shade project to life. Have a preferred installer that you trust? Loop us in with your favorite contractor and purchase a new canopy direct from the manufacturer.

The same attention to detail that goes into our lifts goes into our sunshades as well. Which makes them a winning combination.
