This product comes with a 1 Year warranty on the Fame and a 3 Year fade resistant warranty on the fabric.
Warranty is on workmanship. It does not cover umbrellas which are damaged due to wind.
What’s so special about this umbrella?
The neat feature about the Regis is that it tilts in both directions. Umbrellas including the Savannah and Asta tilt by sliding the pistol grip tilt handle up and down the pole. The Regis not only tilts in this direction but also in a side-to-side direction. For example, if you wish to shade the northern end of your pool but can only locate the base to the eastern side of that pool the Regis is the perfect option. Normal cantilever umbrellas will block the eastern sun - the side to side tilt feature allows the Regis to block the eastern sun and the northern sun.
Can I install this umbrella myself?
Sure, the umbrella comes fully assembled ready for installation. If you’re bolting the umbrella down to a concrete slab, you need to drill four holes and use masonry anchors (not supplied) to bolt it down. If you’re planning to install it into a grassed area, you need to dig a hole and concrete an in-ground base (optional extra) into the ground. Once this is done it takes a couple of strong people to lift the umbrella from its box and slide it over the spigot ready for use. Note, the inground base is exclusive to Shade Australia.
Do I need any other bits and pieces to install it?
Yes. If you’re bolting down to a concrete slab, we recommend you purchase some anchor bolts from us when you purchase your umbrella. If your installing in-ground, you need to purchase the in-ground socket in addition to the umbrella itself. If you’re optioning up with one of the Resin Bases or the Inground socket, you’ll need to purchase these from us along with blue metal from a nursery or landscape supply company.
Can I leave this umbrella up all the time?
No. You’ll note that many of the Shelta Umbrellas have been tested in a controlled wind tunnel environment to quite high wind speeds. This does not mean that the umbrellas are able to withstand wind gusts in the real world. We strongly recommend that you collapse your umbrella when not in use or when breezy conditions threaten. Damage caused by wind is not considered as a warranty claim.
What accessories do you recommend I purchase with this umbrella?
If you’re bolting to a concrete slab, then anchor bolts for sure. Also, the umbrella does come with a protection cover but it’s relatively light weight isn’t included as part of the actual umbrella warranty. If you really want to give your new umbrella the best possible protection we recommend you purchase an Large Cantilever Cover. This will fit neatly on your new umbrella and give it the best possible protection.
A LED light is also a handy accessory to purchase. It simply clips onto a central drop-down arm.

Umbrella Care & Maintenance
Outdoor umbrellas are a staple in any garden, patio, or poolside area, offering both style and functionality by providing shade and protection from the elements. However, to ensure they continue to serve you well through the seasons, proper care and maintenance are crucial. Regular maintenance can prevent common issues like fading, mildew growth, and mechanical failure and extend the lifespan of your umbrella to ensure its safety and reliability.
