Offset patio umbrellas, or as some other people call them, cantilever umbrellas, are big patio umbrellas which are used to cover big areas from the side, or offset, from the center of the space.  If you have a big table, or spa, it is often impossible for a regular patio umbrella to cover the whole area.  Blocking the sun’s damaging UV rays, or shading bigger seating areas have become vital.

But an Offset Umbrella not only provides a large shaded area, but it can cover basinets or sandpits, letting your children play outside without having to worry about the damaging effects of the sun, or think about a lovely shaded area over your pool, so you are able to relax in the under a fantastic shade.

They can be tilted in any direction so you can keep moving the umbrella along with the sun. Usually they are made from sunbrella fabrics in bright colors which are dyed to be more fade resistant and provide a high level of UV protection.

Side post umbrellas, which is what they might also be called by some people, make an elegant addition to any outside patio or deck. It is the ideal umbrella for giving shade to large rectangle shaped patio tables since there is no center pole in the umbrella to take up space in the shade.

Offset Patio Umbrella Having the pole at the side of the patio umbrella instead of in the center lets you to use whatever kind of patio table or dining table you desire, and it doesn’t matter if it has a center hole or not.

You might also like to get rid of the table altogether and simply put a bunch of chairs underneath the offset umbrella for a pleasant afternoon outside in the shaded sun.

The cantilever umbrella is a unique way to shade your friends and family that brings a certain level of elegance to your patio, deck, pool side, or lawn, and ensures you are all protected from the sun’s harmful rays at any time of day.
