  • Built to Last: The aluminium pole and  steel ribs feel remarkably sturdy for the price point.
  • Base Not Included: Remember to factor in the cost of a suitably weighted base.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Crooked Chimney Pub in York needed to upgrade their outdoor area. Their old, mismatched umbrellas were tatty and  didn't offer enough coverage for their newly expanded beer garden, meaning tables were often left empty on sunny days.

"We ordered six of these Bolero parasols and  they've completely transformed our garden. They look incredibly smart and  our customers love that they can tilt them. Our outdoor space is now full, even on the brightest days."

David Chen – General Manager

The investment directly led to a 30% increase in garden food and  drink sales during the first sunny month of operation.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Ensure you purchase a compatible, weighted base (sold separately) to prevent tipping in the wind.
  • Assembly is straightforward: simply slot the two pole sections together before placing into the base.
  • Use the crank handle to gently open the canopy for the first time, checking all ribs extend correctly.
  • Position in your desired location before fully tightening the base to secure it.

Keeping It Going

  • Always close the parasol in strong winds or overnight to prevent weather damage.
  • Clean the canopy with a soft brush and  mild soapy water, then rinse and  allow to air dry completely.
  • Check the crank mechanism and  fittings periodically for any signs of wear and  tear.
  • Store in a dry, sheltered place over winter to prolong its life and  keep it looking its best.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Commercial Parasol

Not sure which sunshade solution is right for your space? Here are a few pointers to help you decide.

Measure Your Space

Consider the size of your tables. A 3m parasol like this one is perfect for covering a 4-6 seater table comfortably, ensuring all your guests are shaded.

Base Weight is Key

The bigger the canopy, the heavier the base needs to be. For a 3m parasol in a typical setting, look for a base of at least 25kg, or heavier for windier spots.

Consider the Elements

Look for features like UV resistance to prevent fading and  sturdy poles (aluminium is a great lightweight but strong option) to withstand daily commercial use.

Ease of Use

A crank handle and  tilt function aren't just luxuries; they save your staff time and  effort every single day, making setup and  pack-down much quicker.

Match Your Brand

Choose a colour that complements your existing outdoor furniture and  branding. Classic colours like cream or black offer timeless appeal and  suit most decors.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is a base included with this parasol?

A: No, the base for the Bolero Seville FU503 parasol is sold separately. This allows you to choose the best weight and  style for your specific location and  surface.

Q: How do I operate the tilt function?

A: The parasol features an easy-to-use push-button mechanism located on the upper part of the pole. Simply press it in to angle the canopy.

Q: What is the pole diameter?

A: The pole has a standard diameter of 48mm, which fits most commercial-grade parasol bases designed for this size.

Q: Is the canopy waterproof?

A: The 245gsm polyester canopy is shower-resistant, offering good protection from light drizzle, but it is not fully waterproof and  should be closed during heavy downpours.

Q: Can I leave this outside all year round?

A: To maximise its lifespan and  prevent weather damage, we strongly recommend closing it in high winds and  storing it in a dry, sheltered location during the winter months.

Q: How easy is it to open and  close?

A: It's very simple. The integrated crank handle allows for smooth and  effortless operation, so any staff member can open or close it in seconds.

Q: What does 245gsm mean for the fabric?

A: GSM stands for 'Grams per Square Metre'. A weight of 245gsm indicates a thick, durable fabric that's ideal for commercial use, offering great longevity and  UV protection.

Q: Is the cream colour likely to get dirty?

A: While lighter colours can show dirt more than dark ones, the polyester fabric is easy to spot-clean with a cloth and  mild soapy water.
