Closing an umbrella is simple but varies depending on the type. Whether you’re handling a compact umbrella, patio umbrella, or cantilever umbrella, proper closure ensures durability and smooth operation. Follow these steps to close your umbrella efficiently.
Compact umbrellas are lightweight and convenient, ideal for on-the-go use.

| Press the Button | Most compact umbrellas have an automatic release button. Press to retract. |
| Slide the Shaft | Push the handle downward until it locks in place. |
| Wrap the Strap | Use the strap to secure the folded umbrella for storage. |
Patio umbrellas are designed for outdoor areas and need careful handling when closing.
Remove Attachments
Detach any accessories like lights or mosquito netting to prevent damage.
Straighten the Tilt
