Do you like to be confined inside the four walls of your house in the evening or early night times? If not, your patios in the entrance and the backyard are very good places to stay just before and after sunset. Only variation is that they must be covered by patio umbrellas matching the design and style of the house. The umbrella can also be of different types like garden umbrella and market umbrella. The two variations are used outside hotels and resorts. The patio umbrella has eight ribs covered by fabric of synthetic material and attached to the ground through a center pole. Market umbrella is light in weight and can be installed by your own effort.
The fabrics forming the cover are painted in light colors. The shapes and sizes of these umbrellas change according to the number of people they can accommodate under. The outdoor spaces of hotels are provided with patio umbrellas whose central pole passes through a hole in the table placed under. The customers sit around the table to have snacks or coffee. Some pieces have spread area of 9 feet diameter and octagonal in shape. Due to their heavy structure, they can be hoisted in position using the pulley and rope system or electric automatic lifters.
The center pole, the base and the ribs of the patio umbrella are crafted out of chrome steel or teak wood. The aluminum patio umbrella that is anodized with antique bronze finish is an inexpensive variety and has a crank handle to tilt the shade in three steps encountering the slanting rays of the Sun in the morning and evening. The umbrella is folded or opened with the use of tough nylon hubs.
A step down transformer is given with this model as an accessory to convert domestic electricity of 110 volts to 15 volts to enable lighting the umbrella at nights. The wiring goes through the pole and the ribs not to disturb the ambience of the structure. The LED bulbs beautify the space under the umbrella after sunset and are durable to natural elements.
The fabric of the patio umbrella is painted in a seven coat marine varnish finish so that the patio umbrella can be used in the beaches overlooking the oceans.
