Outdoor shades help block the sun
If you spend time outdoors, you know how important it is to have some shade to escape the heat, glare and UV rays of the sun. Market umbrellas are great for protecting small spaces or for going through umbrella tables but they are limited in the amount of coverage they provide and their adaptability to changing conditions or personal preferences.
Offset umbrellas for outdoor lounge & dining settings
Cantilever umbrellas are large patio umbrellas with their support pole on the side of the canopy. The overhanging configuration enables side post deck umbrellas to shade spacious areas without a pole obstructing the view or traffic lanes. This makes them ideal for al fresco dining and lounging spaces where you want to freely and easily interact with friends and family without distraction. Offset umbrella canopies can be adjusted to tilt in one or more directions and rotate up to 360° - enabling you to customize the shade position throughout the day or to cover different areas of your patio.
Hospitality-grade cantilever patio umbrellas
Due to their size, side pole umbrellas require more substantial designs than their center post counterparts. Typically, these metal umbrellas are made from aluminum or steel and have reinforced connection points. They also demand heavier umbrella bases or more industrial mounting options. Decor Outdoor sells durable offset umbrellas that can be used in both residential and commercial locations. Most of our shades have solution-dyed acrylic canopies from premium brands like Sunbrella®. This high-performance textile repels water and resists fading and harmful ultraviolet radiation.

Frequently Asked Questions - Cantilever Umbrellas
How heavy should a cantilever umbrella base be?
Most cantilever umbrella manufacturers recommend 30-40 pounds per canopy foot (even more for windy settings). So, an offset umbrella with a 10 foot diameter canopy should have a base that is at least 300-400 pounds.
How much space do cantilever umbrellas need?
Many cantilever umbrellas can rotate up to 360°. So, if you want to shade multiple areas, you need to double the horizontal clearance space based on the canopy diameter and additional arm length to the side pole. Also, offset umbrellas may be able to tilt the canopy almost 90° so you need a lot more vertical space to accommodate all angles.
