Galtech 887AB58 Cantilever Umbrella

Because this is a cantilever umbrella, you need to account for the footprint of the base in addition to the 11-foot canopy diameter. Ensure you have a flat, stable area of at least 12 to 13 feet in diameter to accommodate the base and the full extension of the shade.

Yes, the canopy is made from high-quality acrylic, which is specifically engineered to resist fading and degradation from UV exposure. While it is weather-resistant, we recommend closing the umbrella during high winds or severe storms to protect the frame and fabric longevity.

The mechanism is designed for smooth, intuitive use. You can easily adjust the angle and height of the canopy with minimal physical effort, making it simple to track the sun throughout the day without needing to reposition the entire base.

The frame is constructed from heavy-duty alloy steel and aluminum, providing significant structural integrity. However, like all large cantilever umbrellas, it acts like a sail; you should always retract the canopy when not in use or during windy conditions to prevent damage.

The 115-pound weight refers to the unit itself. Please check your specific retailer listing, as cantilever umbrellas often require a specific weighted base or mounting system to ensure stability, which may be sold separately.
