Black 3m Cantilever Umbrella with UPF 50+ Protection
The octagonal canopy measures 3m in diameter, offering shade for outdoor furniture and seating areas. Its UPF 50+ fabric rating indicates a high level of protection against ultraviolet radiation passing through the material.
Furthermore, the black canopy provides a coordinated appearance with contemporary outdoor furniture, timber-look dining settings and garden lounges.
The polyester fabric is water-resistant rather than waterproof. Therefore, it should not be relied upon as shelter during heavy rain, storms or severe weather.
Side-Post Design with Eight Steel Ribs
Unlike a traditional centre-pole umbrella, this cantilever design positions the main support pole to one side of the canopy.
As a result, you have greater flexibility when arranging outdoor dining tables, lounge chairs and other furniture beneath the shaded area.
The coated-steel frame features eight steel support ribs. Together, these components form the canopy’s supporting structure.
With an overall height of 2.8m and a clearance height of 2.3m, the umbrella also provides useful measurements when planning your outdoor space.
Convenient Crank Opening Mechanism
The black 3m cantilever umbrella features a crank-operated mechanism for opening and closing the canopy.
Rather than lifting the canopy manually, operate the crank according to the supplied instructions. This makes routine setup and closing more convenient.
Before opening, check that the umbrella has enough clearance from surrounding furniture, walls and overhead structures.
Four-Plate Water-Fillable Base Included
This umbrella comes with a black polyethylene (PE) water-fillable base featuring four modular plates.
Position the plates around the umbrella’s supporting structure according to the assembly instructions. Then fill them with water to provide additional ballast.
In addition, the plates feature integrated handles for easier handling when empty. This can be useful when repositioning the umbrella within a suitable patio or garden area.
The supplied base completes the intended umbrella configuration. However, it must be correctly installed and filled before use, and it does not make an open umbrella windproof.
Black Polyester Canopy for Contemporary Outdoor Spaces
The umbrella combines a black 180gsm polyester canopy with a matching black coated-steel frame and base.
This coordinated colour scheme can complement neutral outdoor cushions, timber furniture, metal dining settings and contemporary patio designs.
In addition, the side-post arrangement allows flexible positioning near outdoor lounges and dining areas without a pole occupying the centre of the canopy.
Removable and Washable Canopy
The polyester canopy can be removed for cleaning according to the supplied care instructions.
Consequently, routine cleaning can help maintain its appearance throughout regular outdoor use.
For best results, follow the recommended washing, drying and reinstallation procedures. Avoid harsh chemicals or cleaning methods that may damage the fabric or affect its UPF rating.
Black 3m Cantilever Umbrella for Patios and Gardens
Whether you’re shading an outdoor dining setting, courtyard or garden lounge, this umbrella brings together a 3m canopy and convenient side-post design.
Moreover, its crank mechanism, removable polyester canopy and included water-fillable base provide useful features for everyday outdoor living.

Assembly, Safe Use and Canopy Care
- Assemble the umbrella and four-plate base according to the user manual.

- Ensure the umbrella pole, frame and base components are correctly secured.
- Keep hands and fingers clear of moving components when opening or closing the canopy.
- Close and secure the umbrella when unattended.
- Always close the canopy before strong winds, storms or severe weather.
- Do not rely on the water-filled base to prevent overturning in high winds.
- Empty the base plates before lifting or relocating them.
