In-Ground Parasol Anchor with Screw-In Rod – 52 cm – Heavy-Duty Dacromet-Coated Steel
The In-Ground Parasol Anchor with Screw-In Rod is a high-stability, versatile foundation system designed to provide a permanent or semi-permanent mounting solution for cantilever umbrellas. Constructed from premium steel and treated with a specialized dacromet coating, this base offers industrial-grade protection against corrosion, rust, and extreme environmental exposure. This model features a dual-installation design: it can be manually screwed into firm soil using the included high-torque rod and spiral blades for a quick setup, or embedded directly into a concrete foundation for a professional, flush-mount finish. By situating the mounting plate at ground level, this anchor eliminates the need for heavy surface ballast, maximizing your terrace footprint and removing common tripping hazards. This system is the definitive choice for homeowners seeking a streamlined, high-performance anchoring solution for cantilever umbrellas with a canopy span of up to 2.7 metres.
Best For: Providing a secure, low-profile anchor for small-to-medium cantilever umbrellas, eliminating surface-level tripping hazards, and offering flexible installation options for both lawn and patio environments.
Key Features
- Dacromet-Coated Industrial Steel: Utilizes a high-performance protective coating that provides superior resistance to moisture and salt, ensuring the structural integrity of the underground anchor remains intact for years.
- Dual-Method Installation: Engineered for versatility; use the included screw-in rod to drive the spiral blades directly into firm earth, or set the 52 cm unit in a concrete foundation for a permanent, immovable mount.
- Flush-Mount Space Optimization: Designed to sit at ground level to provide a clean, architectural finish that allows for unobstructed movement and furniture placement on your deck or lawn.
- High-Torque Spiral Blades: Features integrated metal spiral blades that create a powerful mechanical grip within the ground, significantly increasing stability and resistance against wind leverage.
- Reinforced 7 mm Top Plate: Equipped with an extra-thick mounting plate (16 x 16 cm) to ensure a rigid, level surface that securely supports the umbrella mast under constant tension.

Oversized Item Delivery Options
Oversized, heavy, and structural goods ship via specialist freight. Freight is calculated at checkout from estimated packaged volumetric or physical weight. Carrier depot audits may adjust the rate — if the increase exceeds 10%, we will contact you before processing.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup — default method
✔ Direct delivery — requires an operational forklift on site unless Tailgate Delivery has been specifically requested and quoted (contact us — this cannot be selected at checkout)
✔ Tailgate hydraulic lift delivery — must be specifically requested; contact us for a quote (not available as a checkout option; extra fees apply; required if you do not have a forklift)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Any carton or consignment over 25–30kg (or over 200cm) must be palletised
- Without a specifically requested and paid Tailgate Delivery quote, palletised freight requires a forklift on site — otherwise the carrier will redirect to the nearest depot
- Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box — provide a physical street address
- Failed deliveries, locked gates, unattended sites, or incorrect business/forklift declarations may incur carrier redelivery, demurrage, and restocking fees as set out in our Terms & Conditions
Business Delivery:
- Selecting a business/commercial delivery rate warrants that the address has an operational forklift and certified operator during business hours
- If the carrier cannot unload, the consignment may be redirected to a depot and secondary fees may apply
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
See our Terms & Conditions (Article 8) for full freight and delivery rules.
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse is a logistics hub, not a retail showroom. Listing a product online does not mean it is stored at our Thomastown warehouse — many lines ship from supplier hubs (split fulfilment may apply).
How lead times work:
- Product page ETA: The Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA) / lead-time badge shown on the product page at checkout is the agreed delivery timeframe for that order under Australian Consumer Law.
- Metro baselines: Advertised ETAs apply to standard metropolitan zones. Regional and remote addresses may take longer and may attract surcharges.
- Peak seasons: Orders in March–May, August–October, EOFY (June), Black Friday/Cyber Monday (November), and Christmas/New Year (December–January) may automatically add a 2–4 week buffer beyond the product page ETA.
- Supplier-dependent / backordered items: If stock is delayed, we will notify you with a revised ETA. You then have 7 days to accept the new timeframe or cancel for a full refund.
- Adloheat: Custom-made products from Adloheat (Pakenham, VIC) may take 4–12 weeks depending on the order.
Full fulfilment, cancellation, and freight rules are in our Terms & Conditions.
