The Samuel Alexander 9kg Garden Parasol Base is designed for homeowners seeking a stable and decorative anchor for their patio umbrellas. With its 45cm diameter and cast iron effect finish, it provides excellent wind resistance for standard parasols; however, users should note that the 9kg weight is intended for lighter-duty umbrellas and may require a heavier base for extremely large, cantilever, or heavy-duty market umbrellas.

No, this base is designed specifically for standard upright parasols that pass through a central hole.
The base can accommodate poles up to 55mm in diameter when the adapter collars are removed.
It features a cast iron effect finish, providing the aesthetic look of iron with the durability of a modern construction material.
The base is designed for simple assembly and does not typically require complex tools, as the tightening knob is manually operated.
While durable, we recommend storing the base in a dry area during the winter to maintain the aesthetic finish of the bronze-effect coating.
Ensure you are using the correct adapter collar for your pole size and verify the tightening knob is fully engaged against the shaft.
Use a soft cloth and mild soapy water to gently wipe the rose design, then dry thoroughly to prevent water spots.
Remove both adapter collars to accommodate the largest pole diameter (55mm) or re-insert the specific collar that matches your pole.
Assembly is straightforward: place the base on your chosen flat surface, insert the appropriate collar size for your pole diameter, and slide the parasol shaft into the central housing. Use the side-mounted knob to tighten against the pole. For maintenance, wipe the base down with a damp cloth periodically to remove dust, pollen, or rain spots. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners that could damage the bronze-effect finish. During winter months or periods of extreme wind, it is recommended to fold your parasol and store the base in a shed or garage to preserve the finish and prevent unnecessary exposure to the elements.
