Buying a patio umbrella? Here’s some tips for you!

When you think of a patio umbrella its hard not to remember the pretty flimsy ones that you had when you were a child. Back then the umbrellas were very limited, they had to go through the hole in your table, blew away with the slightest wind and provided very little shade. If this is what you think of when you think of an umbrella for your patio then you are in for a treat.

Anthony’s Shade Sails will transform the way you think about patio umbrellas. All our umbrellas are 100% UV protected and have a W41 wind rating, so they can withstand even the wildest of Gold Coast weathers.

Tips for buying your new umbrella

Where do you need shade?

Firstly, look at where you want the umbrella and where you need the shade. Depending on where your house is situated you need to be mindful of the sun’s path, so what might be shaded in the morning might be totally exposed by the afternoon.

What size umbrella do you need?

Anthony’s Shade Sails can customise an umbrella to fit almost any area.

How will your umbrella be supported?

Gone are the days of putting your umbrella through your table setting to secure it, we can now install flanged bases which are fixed into your patio concrete or tiles, alternatively we can install an inground base with concrete to secure it.

What colour umbrella do you want?

Anthony’s Shade Sail’s has a wide range of colours for you to choose from, we can also advise on what colour would look good with your surroundings.

What shape umbrella do you want?

Anthony’s Shade Sails can customise your umbrella, choose from a hexagonal shape or a square shape.
