Instant Shade Umbrellas has the best cantilever umbrella range in Australia
Cantilever umbrellas are also known as side-post umbrellas, because the main benefit is that the umbrella pole/mast is to the side of the umbrella canopy, not in the middle. This allows you to utilise the shade of the entire canopy, without worrying about placement of a central pole. Our cantilever umbrellas also allow for movement of the umbrella canopy to follow the sun, with side-to-side rotation and angled-tilt.
There are several models available:
- The unique and compact Paraflex wall mount umbrella
- The Aurora cantilever umbrella, our entry level-model that is light-weight enough to use on a moveable base, yet strong enough to handle Australian conditions
- The heavy duty Eclipse cantilever umbrella, our biggest and most popular model
- The elegant and distinctive Spectra cantilever umbrella, designed and manufactured in Europe
