FAQ – The 5 most frequently asked questions about parasols and sun sails
What types of parasols and sun sails are there?
There are different sun protection solutions depending on your needs and location:
- Market umbrellas / Center pole: classic, flexible for terrace or balcony
- Cantilever umbrellas / Side pole: freestanding, ideal for lounge areas or pools
- Sun sails: modern solution for large areas, flexibly attachable
- Foldable / mobile umbrellas: for temporary use or small balconies
Tip: Choose the type and size to match the area, use, and wind load.
How big should a parasol or sun sail be?
The size depends on the area and shade requirements:
- For balcony or small table: 2–3 m diameter is sufficient
- Terrace or lounge: 3–4 m diameter or large sun sail
- Pool area: Rectangular or triangular sun sail for maximum coverage
Tip: Plan for a little more area to cover the sun even at a low angle.
What materials are suitable for parasols and sun sails?
Material choice influences weather resistance, UV protection, and durability:
- Canopy: Polyester, acrylic, or outdoor fabrics with UV protection
- Aluminum frame: light, rust-free, and easy to clean
- Steel frame: stable, powder-coated for better rust protection
- Wooden frame: natural look, robust, should be regularly oiled or impregnated
- Sun sails: HDPE fabric (High-Density Polyethylene) or acrylic fabric, water-repellent and UV-resistant
Tip: High-quality fabrics and stable frames significantly increase longevity and protective effect. Wooden frames look particularly elegant but require some care.
How do I properly care for and store parasols and sun sails?
With proper care, sun protection solutions remain functional and beautiful for a long time:
- Cleaning: regularly wipe with mild soapy water
- Wind protection: fold or take down in strong winds
- Winter storage: store in a dry and protected place
Tip: For continuous outdoor use, use protective covers to protect the fabric and frame.
How do I securely assemble and attach parasols and sun sails?
Secure fastening is crucial for stability and safety:
- Parasols: choose a heavy enough base or anchor in the ground
- Cantilever umbrellas: use a base plate or concrete stand
- Sun sails: stable attachment points on house walls, posts, or trees
- Consider wind load: take down in strong winds or use additional guy ropes
Tip: Check assembly instructions and manufacturer specifications – safety first.
The GARDEN CHAIR Perspective
For over two decades, GARTEN-STUHL has stood for sophisticated garden and outdoor design at the highest level. Born from a landscape architecture firm, our brand combines in-depth design knowledge with a keen sense for materials, proportions, and atmosphere. We see every garden, every terrace, and every outdoor area as an individual living space – carefully composed, timelessly designed, and built for long-term quality.
It was from this philosophy that GARTEN-STUHL emerged in 2010 as a curated brand for exclusive garden furniture and outdoor accessories. Our collections combine internationally leading manufacturers such as Unopiù, Atelier Vierkant, Tribù, Domani, Tuuci, Gandia Blasco, Vondom, Cane-Line, Barlow Tyrie, Fieldbar, and Kettal with our own product lines. Each piece is selected according to clear criteria: design quality, sustainable materials, artisanal craftsmanship, and the ability to permanently enhance outdoor spaces.
What distinguishes GARTEN-STUHL is the consistent search for that certain something. It is that special combination of comfort, aesthetics, and atmosphere that transforms an outdoor area into a personal retreat. We understand sustainability not as a trend, but as a responsibility – through durable products, high-quality materials, and timeless design that lasts for years.
Just as important as the product is personal contact for us. Our customers can reach us at any time – from the initial question to delivery and assembly, to the holistic design of an outdoor space. With experience, accessibility, and a high standard of service, we support private residences as well as hotels, architects, and landscape gardeners throughout Europe.
GARTEN-STUHL stands for European outdoor living with character – for spaces that radiate tranquility, show personality, and elegantly enrich life outdoors.
Since 2010, we have extended our expertise to outdoor furniture, curating collections that bring the certain something to every setting. We combine exclusive international designers like Unopiù, Atelier Vierkant, Tribù, Domani, Tuuci, Gandia Blasco, Vondom, Cane-Line, Barlow Tyrie, Fieldbar, and Kettal with our own original product lines, each selected to complement the aesthetic and lifestyle of our clients. Sustainability, material integrity, and enduring quality guide every choice, ensuring pieces that are as functional as they are beautiful.
What sets GARTEN-STUHL apart is not only our design curation but our unwavering commitment to service. From first inquiry to delivery and installation, our team is always accessible — ensuring guidance, reassurance, and seamless experiences for every customer. We believe outdoor spaces should be personal, comfortable, and timeless, reflecting both style and individuality.
