Doheny Point Bronze 9' Octagon Beige Outdoor Umbrella

This model features a user-friendly crank system that allows you to open and close the canopy with minimal effort. It also includes a handy push-button tilt function; once the umbrella is open, you can simply press a button to angle the shade. This is particularly useful for blocking the sun as it moves lower in the sky during the late afternoon.

For optimal shade coverage, a 9-foot octagon umbrella is ideally suited for dining tables ranging from 42 to 54 inches in diameter. This size typically provides about 2 feet of canopy overreach on all sides, which is the industry standard for comfortably shading a set of four to six chairs and protecting guests from direct overhead sun.

To ensure stability and safety, we recommend an 80 lb. base if you plan to use this umbrella in a freestanding capacity. If you are pairing it with a compatible outdoor dining table, a 50 lb. base is sufficient as the table provides additional structural support. We advise keeping the umbrella closed during heavy rain or high winds to prevent tipping and to protect the frame.

With a diameter of approximately 9 feet and a height of 95 inches, this umbrella offers a generous shade footprint while remaining compact enough for many urban balconies and smaller patios. The center-pole design is generally more space-efficient than cantilever models, allowing you to place it through a table or in a corner to maximize your available outdoor living space.

This umbrella is engineered with a rust-resistant aluminum post, a material specifically selected for its durability in challenging outdoor environments. Unlike steel, aluminum does not rust when exposed to moisture or salt air, making it an excellent choice for coastal regions or humid climates. The bronze finish adds an extra layer of protection while providing a sophisticated, modern look.

The shade is crafted from colorfast beige fabric designed to withstand prolonged exposure to the sun. Standard outdoor fabrics can fade and weaken under intense UV rays, but colorfast materials are treated to retain their pigment and structural integrity over time. This ensures your patio maintains its curated look even after several seasons of summer sun and spring showers.
