HOW

IT WORKS

A pair of Deckhands™ clamps supports a standard 1.5 inch pole for a 6 - 9 ft round aluminum patio umbrella.

Install a pair of Deckhands™ clamps on your deck railing supports.

Insert patio umbrella and tighten the Deckhands™ clamps.

Open your umbrella as needed. Leave up all season if desired. Easy to remove and set up.

ABOUT US

NEW RELEASES

20 years ago we wanted a better shade solution for our own deck. We made some home-made solutions which over the years became the Deckhands™ clamp system. 

There are other designs in the works. Keep coming back for updates !

* - 304 stainless steel may rust in the presence of salt or harsh chemicals like chlorine.

** - If used as directed. Avoid high winds, completely remove umbrellas/accessories in extreme winds/weather or seasonally. Never have sideways loads such as ropes under tension, or heavy off-center accessories.
