Know before you buy
The Shademaker Aurora base is specifically engineered for the Libra series umbrella frames. We recommend confirming your umbrella's pole diameter and mounting requirements before purchase to ensure a secure fit.
The integrated wheels are designed for smooth, flat surfaces like concrete or decking. While they make repositioning the 100 lb base much easier, they may struggle on highly irregular or loose surfaces like gravel.
Cast aluminum is naturally rust-resistant and highly durable for outdoor use. To keep the finish looking its best, simply wipe it down periodically with mild soap and water to remove dust or debris.
Yes, the 100 lb weight provides a substantial, stable foundation for most residential patio umbrellas. However, always remember to close and secure your umbrella during high winds or severe weather to prevent damage.
The base arrives with the necessary components for setup. While it is a heavy item, the assembly process is straightforward and designed to get your umbrella mounted quickly.
