Things To Consider When Purchasing Patio Umbrellas

It is hard to go wrong with a patio umbrella for your outdoor seating area

. While providing aesthetic appeal, comfort, and a resort-like feel to your yard, their primary purpose is two-fold protection. First they provide shade which blocks the damaging rays of the sun from burning you and damaging your furniture. Second, they also defend against falling debris which could be painful or just make your seating area look bad. There multiple types of patio umbrellas, so this article will try to help you narrow down your choices so that you can get the perfect umbrella for your needs.

Always Opened or Not

Now that you've decided to purchase a patio umbrella, you must choose between the umbrellas that are designed to be open all the time or the umbrellas that have a mechanism to open and close them. A cautionary note goes to you who consider the always open patio umbrella because it literally is meant to be open all the time. This means that you will need to designate a space for it and it is not a wise option if you live in areas that are gust prone. One advantage to the always open patio umbrella is that can come in many wonderful designs. The patio umbrella that can close provides you with more convenience and especially if you have the space to store inside you house, it can fit into smaller spaces.

Where do I put it?

Now that you've decided which type of umbrella you'd like to adorn your patio, you should consider the different ways you can have it set up. You can place the umbrella in your patio table, have it stand independently or attach it to your deck railing.

Since not all tables have pre-drilled in them, there are two other options available. First there is the freestanding umbrella. In a freestanding umbrella the post slides into a moveable base that can be placed wherever you fancy and need shade. The mobility of these umbrellas make them convenient so that you can adjust your shade as the sun moves.

With some options outlined here, hopefully you're able to narrow down your plans for your umbrella and your overall patio design.
