Gate Shade

Gate Shade is an iconic element of our collection, a structure that combines sun protection and architectural originality. Born from the collaboration with Nicolas Thomkins, a renowned international designer, this structure stands out for its versatility and innovative design.
Nicolas Thomkins writes: “The design of Gate Shade provides shade in a pure and architectural way: the arc as protective statement.”

In fact, the central element of Gate Shade is an elegant metal arch, available in a variety of colors, with an internal steel supporting structure. This structure houses two motorized arm tents, controllable by remote control, which can cover a maximum area of 5 x 6.4 meters.

In the collected position, with all accessories perfectly integrated, the Gate Shade becomes a perfect architectural element.

Gate Shade is not limited to sun protection-its design includes an LED strip system built into the ceiling to gently illuminate the area below during nighttime hours. It also offers a customized sound system to make the outdoor space experience complete. For added safety and convenience, the tents are equipped with an anemometer for automatic closure in winds above 25-28 km/h, and a rain sensor for automatic closure in bad weather.

To secure the structure to the ground when holes cannot be drilled in the pavement, Unosider offers an alternative anchoring system through planters or weighted benches.
