The summer season is approaching and you're dying to enjoy your garden. Unfortunately, the sun isn't as generous in the north of France as it is in the south. So you're going to have to find a clever way of enjoying your terrace, thanks to the option of a heated parasol stand. You'll even be able to make fun of the saying, "In April, don't let the sun get the better of you". In early autumn, your parasol's hooped enclosure will act as a garden light. With this subterfuge, you'll have the illusion of an Indian summer even as the days grow shorter.

The timeless charm of the parasol

Don't worry, there are countless models to choose from: straight, square, offset or center-mast, double or balcony, and so on. What's more, they're easy to use, thanks to optional crank, auto-tilt and height adjustment. You'll be able to install them in no time at all.

Summer showers are no excuse to flee your loggia! By choosing a waterproof and water-repellent polyester parasol, you can sing in the rain, sheltered under your parasol. What's more, parasols are an essential part of your outdoor décor. It lets you dress up your space, while making itself useful.

These clever accessories make the sunshade even more efficient

Ugly draughts are foiled by parasol feet made of concrete, hesperide epoxy steel, or 90 kg slabs on castors. In this way, the tip is securely fixed in its stable support. However, take care when using a straight or offset parasol during gusts of wind.

What's more, if you live in a very windy region, a straight parasol will be better suited, as it's more resistant to gusts. Some manufacturers even specify maximum wind speed tests. These models provide good UV protection and light resistance in bright sunshine.

Increase the lifespan of parasol covers

All accessories - bases, slabs, covers - are easily adapted to the parasol model chosen. You can choose from an almost infinite range of colors: black, anthracite, ecru, green, blackcurrant, etc. It's also likely that you want to extend the life of your parasol cover.

Not all French towns offer the same amount of sunshine. It's undeniable that darker colors will fade faster in the sun than lighter ones. Even so, take the precaution of storing your parasol in a protective cover, so it doesn't fade in a motley fashion. Incredibly, the moon's rays also contribute to the aging of the parasol's canvas. The best thing to do is to cover it when not in use.

Before you give in to temptation and place your order, take the measurements of your terrace or balcony. All the more so if the configuration of your roof requires you to estimate the height available in the presence of an eave. Now all you have to do is choose the delivery date for your parasol.
