Living in the UK can bring many challenges, such as does the cream or jam go on scones first, should you have tomato or brown sauce in your bacon sandwich, or the most difficult of all…trying to predict the weather.

Enjoying your garden all-year round in the UK can be tough, one minute the sun is shining and the next you’re scraping frost off your car. This makes creating and enjoying your outdoor space a thoughtful process, but at White Stores we’ve got you covered.

Pergola 101

Speaking of coverings, we have two great options that’ll help protect you no matter the weather. We have our award-winning pergolas featuring the Titan and Proteus range. These products allow you to enjoy your garden whether the sun is shining, or the rain is pouring.

They’re 100% waterproof and have built-in drainage systems to help. Our U-shaped channels allow the water to flow through the framework and into the ground. Even when the louvres are open, the U-shaped channels prevent the rainwater from dripping under the sheltered area.

Moreover, the design is UV protected and therefore resistant to fading and other damage typically caused by heat, protecting you and your family on those blistering hot days.

Shady Business

When the sun is out, why not consider our parasols featuring the Apollo and Galaxy collections. Both collections operate on a crank and tilt system, so they’re easy to use and manoeuvre. If you’re looking for a bit more protection, the Galaxy collection is our brightest star.

The collection comes in square, round, and rectangular shaped canopies with the option of grey or beige. The parasols are treated with a PA coating which ensures resistance to sun bleaching and fading. The canopy is thicker than the Apollo collection, as the canopies are 250g with a UV 50+ and a fade resistance of 6.

And if that isn’t enough to convince you, the Galaxy range comes with an out of this world feature – LED Lights! These lights can set the mood, meaning you can spend more time in the garden. Even when the moon’s high in the sky, the garden parties can continue.

 

It's Wet, It's Cold, But Your Garden Furniture Is Still Gold

So, what happens when the bees aren’t buzzing, the evenings are no longer warm, but you want to make the most of your garden? Don’t panic, our outdoor heating range can help.

We offer a wide range of firepits and a selection of patio heaters which’ll provide the warmth needed during those colder days and nights. Our patio heater selection comes in an array of options which will fit a variety of garden décor.

Our Free Standing Electric Patio Heater comes with two options, rattan based or the Helios and as an added bonus they double-up as lights. The rattan base heater is powered by 2.1kW and will go well with a dining set. There are three heat settings starting at 900W all the way to the 2.1kW. The weave also looks stylish and will match your garden furniture.

If you want something a bit more premium and even warmer, then the incredibly sleek and modern IP55 rated weatherproof Helios 3kW patio heater is the choice for you. The Helios has an easy-to-use digital display and a remote control for convenience. Plus, it has an excellent tip-over switch which means the heater will automatically switch off if it falls over, making it safe for families with children.

Sun's Out, Get The Garden Furniture Out!

When the sun shines, you’ll need the absolute best furniture to enjoy it. We have so many options you’ll be spoilt for choice, from casual dining to sun loungers. Our Cambridge Casual Dining Collection features reclining options, so you can lay beneath the sun when you’re not dining in style. The collection also has different configurations (Left-Handed, Right-Handed), table styles (Rising Table, Gas Firepit) and rectangular or squared tables, so there’s something for everyone.

However, if all you’re looking for is to sunbathe then our sun loungers are the products for you. The Madison Sun Lounger Set has two sun loungers and a coffee table, meaning you can spend all day in the sunshine with your favourite drinks and snacks within arm’s reach.

The set is ideal for a poolside location as it’s crafted using power coated aluminium offering protection from rust and corrosion. The rattan allows you to leave the set outside all year round, even during the coldest and wettest months. Nevertheless, our cushions aren’t weatherproof, so we recommend you bring them inside to keep them fresh.

 

Whether flowers are blossoming, ice cream is melting in the summer heat, families are pumpkin picking, or you’re cuddled up with your dog as it snows, White Stores is here every step of the way. You can find what you’re looking for at one of our showrooms or website.
