Make more of the space beneath your parasol. The Levante Side Wind’s cantilever design positions the supporting post to one side, leaving room to arrange your table, pull out chairs or move a lounger into the shade.
With no centre pole to work around, you have greater freedom to position your outdoor furniture. In simple words, you place your furniture where it works, not where the pole allows.
Shade for gardens and hospitality spaces
At home, this large bamboo cantilever parasol provides shade for dining patios, outdoor lounge areas and poolside seating. Its natural bamboo frame complements timber furniture and surrounding plants, while the open space beneath the canopy gives you room to sit, dine and relax.
For hotels, restaurants, cafés and pubs, the Levante Side Wind combines generous shade with a distinctive natural and warm finish. The side-post design keeps the area beneath the canopy clear for guest seating. Custom canopy colours, bespoke valances and logo printing are available to complement your venue’s branding and aesthetics.
For hospitality pricing, site surveys and bulk orders, explore our dedicated commercial parasols service. You can still use the sizing, materials and base guidance tabs on this page to help choose the right configuration for your space.
Choosing your Levante Side Wind size and shape
The Levante Side Wind comes in five configurations to suit different furniture layouts.
Shade for dining tables
Start by measuring the area you want to shade, including the chairs around your table. A canopy that only covers the tabletop can leave people sitting in direct sunlight.
Our golden rule is to allow at least 1m of canopy beyond each table edge to help shade the surrounding seating. The guide below assumes your table is centred beneath the canopy.
| Parasol shape | Canopy size | Maximum table size allowing 1m on each side |
|---|---|---|
| Round | 3.5m diameter | Round table: 150cm diameter |
| Square | 3.0 × 3.0m | Square table: 100 × 100cm |
| Square | 3.4 × 3.4m | Square table: 140 × 140cm |
| Rectangular | 2.5 × 3.5m | Rectangular table: 50cm wide × 150cm long |
| Rectangular | 3.0 × 4.0m | Rectangular table: 100cm wide × 200cm long |
Shade for sun loungers
Position loungers side by side, with space between them for easy access. These examples assume each lounger measures approximately 70cm wide × 200cm long, with 40cm between loungers.
| Parasol shape and size | Suggested number of loungers | Placement |
|---|---|---|
| Round · 3.5m | 2 loungers | Centre both loungers beneath the canopy, keeping their ends within its curved edge. |
| Square · 3.0 × 3.0m | 2 loungers | Place side by side, creating an arrangement approximately 180 × 200cm. |
| Square · 3.4 × 3.4m | 3 loungers | Place in a row approximately 290 × 200cm. Choose two for more room around the edges. |
| Rectangular · 2.5 × 3.5m | 2 loungers | Align the loungers’ length with the canopy’s 3.5m side. |
| Rectangular · 3.0 × 4.0m | 3 loungers | Arrange the row across the 4m side, with the loungers extending along the 3m side. |
Shade for sofas and a coffee table
Keep the coffee table within comfortable reach and measure the whole arrangement, including the gap between the table and sofa.
| Parasol shape and size | Example seating arrangement | Placement |
|---|---|---|
| Round · 3.5m | Compact two-seater sofa and coffee table | Centre the arrangement and check that the sofa’s outer corners sit beneath the curved canopy. |
| Square · 3.0 × 3.0m | Two-seater sofa and coffee table | Position the sofa parallel to a canopy edge, with the table in front. |
| Square · 3.4 × 3.4m | Three-seater sofa, one lounge armchair and coffee table | Place the armchair beside the sofa at a right angle, facing the table. |
| Rectangular · 2.5 × 3.5m | Three-seater sofa and coffee table | Align the sofa with the canopy’s longer side. |
| Rectangular · 3.0 × 4.0m | Three-seater sofa, two lounge armchairs and coffee table | Position the sofa along the 4m side, with an armchair at each end facing inward. |
Strong construction for outdoor use
The laminated bamboo frame and stainless-steel fittings give the Levante Side Wind a robust structure for garden and terrace use. Secure it with a suitable base or ground fixing, follow the manufacturer’s wind guidance and always close the canopy when unattended.
360° rotation and 45° tilt
Keep the shade where you need it as the sun moves. The 360° rotating base allows you to reposition the canopy around the side post, while the 45° tilt helps shade your seating from angled sunlight. Adjust the canopy over your dining table or lounge area without rearranging your furniture.
Operating the Levante Side Wind Bamboo Cantilever Parasol
Geared winch for easy opening and closing
The geared winch uses 304-grade stainless-steel wire to open and close the canopy. The geared winch reduces the effort needed to open and close the large canopy. Turn the crank handle to open the parasol and reverse the direction to close it, following the locking and release steps shown in the demonstration.
360° rotation for flexible shade
Position the shade around your seating without shifting the base or rearranging your furniture. Release the rotation locks near the base, turn the parasol side mast and the canopy should rotate to your preferred position, then secure the locks again. The full 360° rotation allows you to direct the canopy towards different areas throughout the day.
45° tilt for angled sunlight
Adjust the canopy’s angle to help shade your seating as the sun moves lower in the sky. The tilt controls on the main post allow you to angle the canopy by up to 45°. Secure it in position once you have the coverage you need.
Watch this video on how to open, close, rotate and tilt the Levante Side Wind.
