As the owner of SBF INTERIORS AND OUTDOOR SOLUTIONS LIMITED, a company that specializes in manufacturing outdoor umbrellas in Nairobi, today I will share everything you need to know about offset patio umbrellas and cantilever umbrellas.

Offset patio umbrellas are a special variant of patio umbrellas where the base lies to one side of the umbrella rather than the middle. Due to this, offset patio umbrellas are also sometimes known as side post umbrellas.

These umbrellas are made of an aluminium or wooden base and frame which supports a shade cloth or acrylic fabric. Offset patio umbrellas are designed in a way to provide the maximum amount of shade.

Due to the side post arrangement, offset patio umbrellas offer a lot of space underneath and appear very stylish and modern. They can rotate to change the angle of shade as the sun moves. This makes them an excellent choice for poolside decks, gardens and other outdoor areas.

At first glance, cantilever umbrellas may seem somewhat similar to offset patio umbrellas. However, there is a slight difference between the two – cantilever umbrellas may or may not include a post at all.

For instance, the wall-mounted cantilever umbrellas that we offer at SBF INTERIORS AND OUTDOOR SOLUTIONS LIMITED do not include a base or side post. Rather these umbrellas can be attached to walls with the help of wall-mounting brackets.

As with offset patio umbrellas, cantilever umbrellas also maximize the amount of shade and offer plenty of free space underneath. Cantilever umbrellas can also be tilted, rotated and swung to change the angle of shade with the movement of the sun.

Both cantilever umbrellas and offset patio umbrellas are durable, and they are perfect for use in both residential and commercial applications. The only thing you need to consider is whether you need a wall-mounted shade solution or a shade solution with a fixed base and you’re good to go.
