Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tilting parasol?
A tilting parasol has a mechanism that allows the canopy to be angled, typically up to 30 to 45 degrees from vertical. This lets you adjust the shade direction as the sun moves throughout the day, providing more flexible coverage than a fixed upright parasol.
How does the tilt mechanism work?
Most tilting parasols use a push-button or crank mechanism on the pole to adjust the angle of the canopy. Some premium models feature a 360-degree rotating tilt, allowing you to direct shade in any direction without moving the base.
Are tilting parasols more expensive than standard parasols?
Tilting parasols are generally slightly more expensive than fixed parasols of the same size due to the additional mechanism. However, the added flexibility in shade coverage makes them a popular and worthwhile upgrade for most UK gardens.
Do tilting parasols fit standard garden tables?
Yes — most tilting parasols are designed to fit through a standard parasol hole in a garden table. Check the pole diameter against your table's hole size before purchasing. Some tilting models have a slightly thicker pole due to the tilt mechanism housing.
Do you offer free delivery on tilting parasols?
Yes, we offer free UK mainland delivery on all tilting parasols. Most are delivered via standard courier. Delivery timescales are shown on each product page.
