Cantilever Patio Umbrellas

Not to throw shade at standard patio umbrellas — we appreciate being shielded from the sun on grilling season’s hottest days, and that pun was too easy to pass up — but sometimes they just don’t work for the space you’re trying to create. Their central poles can make it difficult to arrange furniture as desired or adjust the canopy to block harsh sunlight throughout the day, while also potentially obstructing the view between conversing guests. Cantilever umbrellas, on the other hand, feature poles offset from the center or entirely outside the canopy, greatly expanding placement options (especially near tables with no umbrella holes) and allowing for rotation to follow the scorching sun’s path. Yes, we’re saying you can literally throw shade where it’s needed most!

Our cantilever umbrellas pair that supreme functionality with rugged outdoor durability; their solid poles remain upright in adverse conditions, while Sunbrella and Olefin fabric resist the elements and UV rays alike. What’s more, their strength comes in a wide array of styles: solid or striped patterns, octagonal or square canopy shapes, more than a dozen special fabric hues, and even your choice of pole color. For those keeping score at home, that means you can find an outdoor cantilever umbrella to fit your personal aesthetic without sacrificing quality or ease of use. They rotate or tilt for customized shade by design, and some models even have crank-lift options for easy opening and closing. If you value all-day shade, unobstructed seating or dining areas, and longevity in any conditions, then a cantilever patio umbrella is exactly what you need to complete your outdoor space.
