Build a freestanding foundation for a compatible Giant Greenwich or Giant Monterey umbrella with a round galvanized plate and 2-inch-diameter stem.
Confirm compatibility with the exact umbrella and whether additional plates or a top cover are required for the site. Match the base and stem to the exact umbrella, table or freestanding application, surface, and site exposure using Frankford's current base guidance. Base weight does not make an open umbrella storm-safe; close and secure the umbrella during high or sudden winds and whenever it is unattended or not in use.
Use suitable handling equipment for the plate and keep the stem/fasteners checked per manufacturer instructions.
