Compact / Folding Umbrella Won’t Stay Open? Here’s Why (& How to Fix It Easily)
Every La Bella Wedding Umbrella is designed with a dual-locking mechanism - a safety feature that prevents accidental release during use.
When you press the button while sliding the runner upward, the umbrella’s spring-loaded system activates the release catch - the very mechanism that’s meant to collapse the umbrella - This means that instead of locking into place, the canopy won’t stay open.
The umbrella may feel stiff initially to push up the cover, and then fall down - but in reality, it’s the release trigger being unintentionally held down.
This design is intentional, a hallmark of premium umbrella engineering, ensuring safety, durability, and longevity.
