What Cantilever Parasol Size Do I Need?
Calculate cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach using seating-zone width, seating-zone depth, and distance from mast to zone edge.
Enter your measurements
To work out what cantilever parasol size do i need, begin with seating-zone width, seating-zone depth, and distance from mast to zone edge. The calculator produces cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach from the measurements that actually control the result.
- Seating-zone width — Required
- Seating-zone depth — Required
- Distance from mast to zone edge — Required
- Clearance for canopy rotation — Required
Cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach
Enter the measurements above to calculate cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach.
How the calculation works
This calculator applies requiredCanopyWidth=seatingZoneWidth+2×rotationReserve; requiredCanopyDepth=seatingZoneDepth+2×rotationReserve; requiredReach=mastOffset+seatingZoneDepth+rotationReserve. The resulting value or pass/fail state is reported as cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach.
Worked example
Example: Seating-zone width = 60 cm; Seating-zone depth = 60 cm; Distance from mast to zone edge = 250 cm; Clearance for canopy rotation = 5 cm. Result: Required Reach = 315 cm; Required Canopy Depth = 70 cm; Required Canopy Width = 70 cm.
Before you decide
Enter the dimensions that will exist in real use, not an approximate catalogue category. This page calculates the stated geometry or quantity only; product-specific construction or installation details can still affect the final choice. For what cantilever parasol size do i need, the limiting result on this page is cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach.
Direct measurement/geometry calculation. No external reference is required for the arithmetic itself; the result is derived only from the user-entered measurements and the formula stored in calculationLogicJson.
Frequently asked questions
How does the Cantilever Parasol Size | Size Guide calculator work?
It uses requiredCanopyWidth=seatingZoneWidth+2×rotationReserve; requiredCanopyDepth=seatingZoneDepth+2×rotationReserve; requiredReach=mastOffset+seatingZoneDepth+rotationReserve. The result is cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach.
Which measurements or specifications do I need?
Use these inputs: Seating-zone width, Seating-zone depth, Distance from mast to zone edge, Clearance for canopy rotation. Measure or copy the values from the exact product/specification rather than guessing.
Is the result a guarantee that the product will fit or be suitable?
No. The calculator answers the stated cantilever parasol canopy envelope and reach question. Manufacturer instructions, safety rules, certification, installation tolerances or brand-specific size charts can impose additional requirements.
