25kg Umbrella Base Weight Plate

Add extra stability to your Retro Umbrella Co. setup with our 25kg Umbrella Base Weight Plate, designed to sit neatly on top of our compatible umbrella bases for additional weight without compromising the clean, considered look of your outdoor space.

Simple, substantial and purpose-built, it is an easy way to give your umbrella a more secure foundation, particularly in open or exposed locations.

Key Features:

  • 25kg Additional Weight: Adds approximately 25kg of extra weight to your existing umbrella base, giving your umbrella greater stability and peace of mind.

  • Designed for Our Bases: Purpose-built to sit neatly on top of compatible Retro Umbrella Co. bases for a simple, streamlined setup.

  • Clean, Minimal Design: Octagonal and powder-coated white to match our umbrella bases, a tidy alternative to sandbags or freestanding weights.

  • Easy to Add or Remove: Simply position the weight plate over your existing base plate and twist on the upright whenever additional stability is required.

  • Almost 50kg Combined Weight: When paired with our 24.5kg Octagonal Umbrella Base, the total base weight increases to approximately 49kg.

Important Compatibility Note

This weight plate is only compatible with Retro Umbrella Co. umbrella bases purchased from March 2026 onwards.

If your base was purchased before March 2026, this weight plate will not fit correctly. If you are unsure which base you have, please contact us before ordering.

Important Notes

  • Additional weight improves stability, but no base or weight makes an umbrella windproof.

  • Always close your umbrella when it is unattended, not in use, or in windy conditions.

  • Never leave an umbrella open in strong winds or adverse weather.

  • Use on a flat, level and stable surface.

  • Before opening the umbrella, check the pole is fully seated and the upright is tightened, and recheck it regularly.

  • For particularly exposed locations, and for commercial or hospitality use, additional securing methods may still be required.

Safety and Handling

  • This is a heavy item (25kg). Take care when lifting and moving it, use a safe lifting technique, and get a second person to help if needed.

  • Remove the umbrella before fitting or removing the plate, and take care of fingers and feet when lowering the plate onto the base.

  • Do not let children climb on, swing from or play with the umbrella or base.

  • Follow the Set Up Instructions and Care Guide supplied with your umbrella.

Bases, weight plates and wind: the fine print

Sold only with our umbrellas. Bases and weight plates are available only with the purchase of a Retro Umbrella Co. umbrella.

How the wind test was done. Our umbrella was tested in a wind tunnel to 60 km/h, open, on our 24.5kg base, on a flat, level surface in controlled conditions. Outdoor wind is gustier and less predictable, and slopes, soft or uneven ground, rooftops, coastal and other exposed sites all change how an umbrella behaves. Treat the test as a guide, not a guarantee of how it will perform where you use it.

  • Extra weight improves stability, but no base or weight makes an umbrella windproof.
  • Always close your umbrella and fit the cover when it is unattended, not in use, or wind is forecast. Never leave it open in strong wind or bad weather.
  • Use on a flat, level and stable surface. Before opening, check the pole is fully seated and the upright is tightened, and recheck it regularly.
  • For exposed locations, and for commercial or hospitality use, additional securing may still be required.
  • The extra weight plate fits our bases bought from March 2026 onwards. Not sure which base you have? Email us before ordering.
  • Bases and plates are heavy (about 25kg each). Lift with care, get a second person to help if needed, and don’t let children climb on, swing from or play with the umbrella or base.
  • Follow the set-up instructions and care guide supplied with your umbrella.
