We have three options for installing the Aurora umbrella. You can simply purchase a cross base and black concrete pavers that can be positioned anywhere in your garden, or a “semi-permanent” method that provides the most safe and secure operation. Advantages of a semi-permanent installation include:
Spigot
The spigot (pictured) is included with the umbrella and can be bolted directly to an existing concrete slab. Additional installation accessories (below) provide the option of making the spigot removeable or for fixing to different surfaces.
The standard spigot for the Aurora cantilever umbrella is galvanised and powder-coated (Grey colour). An upgrade to a marine-grade 316 stainless steel spigot is also available.
Countersunk Concrete Screws
Concrete screws are the quickest and easiest way to install an umbrella spigot to an existing concrete slab.
We have sourced premium 316 stainless steel concrete screws from Germany. They are M10 x 120mm. They are countersunk to fit in the spigot fixing holes perfectly and allow the umbrella to rotate around without obstruction. These are available to purchase as a set of 4.
Cross base only
This non permanent option is perfect for areas where you would like to move the umbrella to different locations around the garden or if you live in a rental property.
Set of 4 pavers to suit cross base
Designed for use with the Aurora Cantilever Umbrella Cross Base, these pavers are made from moulded concrete and come in a set of 4. Each concrete block weighs 22kg and measures 500mm x 500mm.
Concrete Installation Kit
The spigot that is included with the umbrella can be fixed directly to a concrete slab. However you may still wish to use a base plate for the following reasons:
Needing to install the base plate prior to purchasing the umbrella (ie. pre-installation before umbrella delivery)
Needing the umbrella and spigot to be removeable (ie. for winter storage)
For this reason we offer a Concrete Installation Kit. It includes a Base Plate and a set of four countersunk stainless steel concrete screws for easy installation.

Decking Installation Kit
For installation to timber decking, a base plate must still be used. We offer a Decking Installation Kit that includes a Base Plate and the stainless steel bolts (and nuts and washers) used to fasten it. Note that the decking requires additional reinforcing with timber “noggins” underneath the deck.

Inground Fitting
The inground fitting is used to install an umbrella in a garden bed, lawn or any other soft surface or a paved area with dirt or soil under the pavers (not concrete).
A hole is dug and filled with concrete to create a footing – the hole should be a minimum of 40cm wide and 70cm deep and belled out at the bottom for extra stability. The inground fitting is set in the footing. Once the concrete is set (approx 2-3 days depending on weather conditions) you can attach the umbrella spigot to the inground fitting.Inground Sleeve Installation Guide
Barrel extension
The Barrel extension is used to raise a cantilever umbrella out of dirt, sand or tan bark so it doesn’t cause any damage to the rotating mechanism or just to give some extra height to the umbrella if needed. It is 300mm high and 215mm in diameter, and is powder coated steel (grey colour).
The Barrel extension is designed to be bolted to an in-ground fitting or base plate (purchased separately)
880 Heavy Duty Freestanding Base
This base consists of a heavy steel frame that takes 12 concrete pavers (measuring 400mm x 400mm x 40mm each) to give it additional weight. The sleek brushed aluminium cover hides the pavers. This non-permanent option is perfect if you would like to move the umbrella to different locations around your outdoor area or if you live in a rental property and cannot install. Note however that the base is very heavy when filled (approx. 240kg).
Wheel Set Optional Extra
The wheelset is optional, so you can use this impressive base with or without them. This type of base is suitable for light to moderate winds only (depending on umbrella size).PLEASE NOTE THE PAVERS ARE NOT INCLUDED.
900 Heavy Duty Freestanding Base
A strong and attractive freestanding cantilever umbrella base in silver with internal caster wheels that are discreetly hidden inside the base. Our cantilever umbrellas are big and wind-rated, so we have engineered this moveable base to effectively support your cantilever umbrella while allowing you to easily move it around from one location to another.
Weighs approx. 160-180kg once filled with gravel/builder mix (not included).
Dimensions: 90w x 90d (cm).
Protective covers
Although we have designed our cantilever umbrellas to last and have manufactured the canopies using the highest quality outdoor fabrics, we still recommend using a cover-bag to protect your umbrella through the winter months.
The cover-bag helps to keep the canopy clean and free from bird-droppings and other unwanted nasties. It will prolong the life of your umbrella and keep it looking its best for many years to come.
Stabiliser bars
The Eclipse® cantilever umbrella has the option of attaching uniquely designed canopy stabiliser bars. These stabiliser arms will greatly increase the umbrellas stability on windy days.
The stabiliser bars screws into a mounting block already installed in the front channel of the umbrella mast. Each stabiliser arm then attaches to the end of the umbrella arms to the left and right. The stabiliser bars are designed for an environment where the umbrella needs to be up for longer periods of time in windy conditions
