Enjoy the outdoors with a Cantilever Umbrella

January 13th, 2016 · Published to Outdoor Umbrellas

If you’re looking for a shade solution for your cafe, restaurant or swimming pool then I have the perfect solution; an umbrella. No doubt you’ve already ruled this out because of one obvious problem… the pole. The umbrella certainly gives plenty of shade, but unfortunately, the pole limits the amount of space you can use below it. Fortunately, now not every umbrella has a pole in the middle. A cantilever umbrella provides the same benefits but without the added distraction.

Let’s take a look at some of the other benefits

Pole-less

Also referred to as a side umbrella, an offset umbrella or an ultra shade, a cantilever umbrella has a unique distinction from regular umbrellas – the pole is located at the side instead of the middle. This feature not only increases the size of usable space below, but also removes the distracting middle pole.

Variety of Sizes

The benefits of a cantilever umbrella aren’t limited to a unique design. This type of umbrella was made to provide maximum shade at any location. They come in a variety of sizes ranging from 9 to 13 feet in diameter, which is certainly large enough to protect a small group of people from the harmful rays of the sun.

Built To Last

Being in Australia, we all know how the weather can be. There are times when the winds can turn nasty. Regular umbrellas often don’t stand a chance against rough winds. Cantilever umbrellas are manufactured to withstand strong winds, even with their lightweight aluminium frames.

Like most umbrellas, the canopy of a cantilever umbrella is water resistant. However, apart from this feature, it is also designed to block a higher percentage of UV rays.

Customise the Design

With all the different features of a cantilever umbrella, it would be easy to think that they would all come in one boring design. On the contrary, cantilever umbrellas are available in a wide variety of designs, colours and shapes. In fact, I guarantee that you’ll find a design perfect for your needs.

Compact Storage

Lastly, cantilever umbrellas can also designed to be wound down so that they can be stored easily. Umbrellas are useful, but some days are just too perfect to be sitting in the shade. When you don’t need the umbrella, simply wind it down.

Conclusion

Regular umbrellas are great and they certainly work well, but if you’re looking for additional benefits, then cantilever umbrellas are definitely the best options. Not only do they allow more usable covered space, but they also don’t have a distracting pole in the middle. These umbrellas are designed to withstand strong winds and provide maximum UV protection.
