How far out does a Paraflex wall mounted parasol extend from the wall?
Posting date: 7th August 2010 00:00
The answer to this question depends on which arm you buy and which canopy size.
Any paraflex canopy size can have either a 1.85m arm or a 2.35m arm. Therefore the longest reach of the arm is 1.85m or 2.35m, to the centre of the parasol, where the arm clasps the parasol pole.
The actual parasol, when open will extend further than the end of the arm, by half its diameter. So, for example, assuming that the parasols are fully stretched out at a right angle from the wall
- a 2.2m canopy on a 1.85m arm will measure 2.95 metres from wall to outer edge of canopy (half of 2.2m = 1.1m) + 1.85m = 2.95m.
- a 2.7m canopy on a 2.35m arm will measure 3.70m from wall to outer edge of canopy (half of 2.7m = 1.35m) + 2.35m = 3.70m
Let me know if this is not clear - best wishes Claire
