Installation Options

Options include mobile or permanent installation. Mobile setups offer greater flexibility in location and surface. In-ground installations require building measures, including above-ground and in-ground components set in concrete, which must be planned ahead.

A mobile or permanent installation option has to fulfill further requirements when the large-size parasol includes additional features like lighting, TV or heating: stability, invisible cable runs, protection against overheating, pre-assembly and much more. The interfaces between the actual large-size parasol and the additional features are precisely aligned to guarantee smooth operation. This results in each additional feature having its own technical requirements.

Umbrella Frame

The difference may not be immediately obvious, but Bahama’s large parasols feature an inner and outer pole that visually connect to form a single central pole. This design enhances sturdiness, providing better stability and improved safety.

Center pole with Outer and Inner pole
  • Umbrella center pole extension, up to 50 cm are possible depending on model
  • Umbrella center pole reduction (upon request)
  •  
  • Easy and quick opening and closing due to the maintenance-free servo-mechanism
  • Easy and efficient handling through gradual opening (servo-mechanism); depending on model 2- or 4-stages
  • Tension latches with spring buckles for opening and closing instead of a crank
  • Extra stability through extruded, internally strengthened and profiled aluminum center pole
  • Pole diameter approx. 80 mm, wall thickness approx. 2.5 mm
  • Impact and scratch resistant due to PES powder-coated center pole, post-baked
  • Standard frame in traffic white | RAL 9016 or in anthracite grey | RAL 7016, textured matte finish
  • Optional custom design for frames (color, exclusive wood look | Golden Oak) and membranes
  • Cylindrical locks in the handles prevent unauthorized opening and closing
  • The quality of a parasol can only be as good as its supporting and connecting parts.
  • Welded rectangular aluminum profile using special alloy AI F30/32; no sharp edges
  • Mounted using stainless steel axle bolts and spring pins
  • No plastic parts used
  • With hollow seam for spoke membrane integration Individually exchangeable spokes and support spokes
