Cantilever Parasols
Side-post parasols that shade without a centre pole in the way — ideal for dining sets, lounge zones and poolsides.
Our cantilever parasols put the mast to the side so the canopy floats over your space with nothing to obstruct the table. Choose octagonal or square canopies from 2.0 to 4.0 m, marine-grade aluminium frames and three fabric grades, then have it finished in any RAL colour. Every unit is made to order and rotated 360° with a smooth tilt.

Where it works best
- Poolside loungers and open deck areas where a centre pole would block movement.
- Restaurant terraces that need shade over a fixed dining set without a pole through the table.
- Private gardens where the canopy must reach a corner seat or a hot tub.
Why Parasolcraft
- Full 360° rotation and tilt put shade exactly where it is needed, all day.
- Marine-grade anodised aluminium resists corrosion in coastal and pool environments.
- Made to measure in size, fabric, colour and base — no off-the-shelf compromise.
Frequently asked questions
How large a cantilever parasol do I need?
For a 6-seat dining table choose a 3.0–3.5 m canopy; for lounge and pool zones 4.0 m gives full cover. We confirm exact sizing in your quote.
Can the pole be hidden or wall-fixed?
The mast is free-standing with in-ground, heavy cross or concrete base options. For true wall mounting see our wall-mounted range.
What wind can it take?
Standard cantilevers are rated to 80 km/h (Beaufort 8). Always close and secure the canopy in storms.
