What is Cantilever Banana Parasol?
A parasol with a side stand and can overhang with a 360° rotation option is called Cantilever Parasol. It is also known as a banana umbrella and hanging umbrella. They are less portable and much heavier than other umbrellas.
It has two poles:
1. Horizontal pole: it is adjustable, so you can adjust the cantilever banana parasol according to your requirements. All the adjustments are carried out with the help of a handle that is attached to a vertical pole.
2. Vertical pole: helps it to stand and balance its weight.
These Cantilever Banana Parasol are great for entertaining, garden parties, picnics, or just relaxing in the shade. They are the best choice for backyard and even restaurants. We use UV and water-resistant materials.

Types of cantilever parasol
There are two main types of cantilever parasol, wall-mounted and with a vertical base. Wall-mounted basically allows 180-degree rotation, but cantilever banana parasol allows a 360 degrees rotation. Cantilever banana parasols have a variety of shapes. The most common shapes include octagon, rectangular, and square. Circular parasols are also available in the market, but they are not that famous. The latest version of the cantilever banana parasol launched in the market has LED powered by solar energy. These lights are arranged beautifully according to the cantilever parasol shape and add a gentle glow.
Cantilever banana parasol vs. typical garden parasol
The main difference between a garden parasol and a cantilever parasol is the support. Garden parasols have vertical center support. Cantilever parasols have vertical support but horizontal support or wall mount. It doesn't have a center pole, so the center place is completely clear. It has a wider range of tilt angles and motion than a regular garden parasol.
The material used for making cantilever banana parasols
Frame
For making a cantilever banana parasol frame, three materials are mainly used:
1. Aluminum frames: they also have a powdered coated finish to prevent damage from rust.v2. Steel frames: it is more expensive but highly durable.
Umbrella
When it comes to umbrella material, fade, mold, UV resistance, and easy-to-clean material are used. Mainly canvas, polyester, and Sunbrella fabric are for making cantilever banana parasols. Polyester fabric is the most common and budget-friendly.
How to prepare it for winter?
For maintaining a cantilever banana parasol for a longer time, here are some tips for you:
Keep it Dry
Always make sure that the parasol should be completely dry before storing it. Even if you manage to remove it with any chemical, it will cause a destructive effect on the cloth. We use a special coating to make it water-resistant, so if it is closed, water can not dry completely and result in the form of mold, which appears in black patches and is rarely removable.
Keep it Clean
You can clean it by yourself or ask professionals. We recommend cleaning it with high-pressure water and a brush. We do not recommend washing it within the washing machine. Due to its large size, it can not fit in a machine, and even if it does, water and soap can not reach every corner. If it's much dirty and you want to change it, you can order a new Cantilever Banana Parasol umbrella.
Greasing
After using it for some years, it is possible that you feel difficulty in opening and closing the Cantilever Banana Parasol. You can use a silicon spray to easily fix it. Please contact us so we can guide you on where you can spray and where you can not. We are always available for your help.
Cover it
Select the right size cover for your parasol. The most important thing is to use a protective cover specially designed for Cantilever Banana Parasol. Ensure that the cover is completely dry and secure with the chord present at the bottom so no moisturizer will get into it.
How to store it?
The next point is thinking about a perfect place for storing a Cantilever Banana Parasol. If you are storing it outside, cover it properly and make sure the cover is completely dry. If you are storing it inside, still check that cover should be properly dry and place the cantilever parasol vertically.
Keep in Mind
1. Cantilever Banana Parasol is a sunshade and not for sunblock.
2. If you want to use it for a long time, do not use it in adverse conditions.
3. If it gets wet, try to remove the water quickly so there will be fewer chances of tearing.
4. Protect it from weather damage because the guarantee doesn't cover weather damage.
5. Our Cantilever Banana Parasol will look perfect for a longer time if you cover it with a cover and place it in a dry place.
