Treasure Garden Replacement Base Knob (Set of 2, Bronze Finish) Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Replacement Base Knob set and what does it do?
This is a factory replacement set of two knob screws designed for umbrella bases made by Treasure Garden. The knobs secure the stem of the umbrella base to the umbrella pole or insert. It’s meant to replace worn, stripped, or lost knobs so the base remains safe and stable.
Which base models and thread size is this knob compatible with?
According to the product detail, it works with bases in the BA150, BA50, BG50, BKM, BW50, BS35 and BS70 series. The thread size is M8 × 49.7 mm.
What finish is the knob and why is that relevant?
This set comes in a Bronze finish to match bronze-frame umbrella bases and stands. Matching the finish ensures visual consistency and proper corrosion resistance in the same finish as the rest of your base hardware.
Do I need any special tools or procedures to install these knobs?
Installation is straightforward: remove the old knob(s) using a wrench or socket suitable for the M8 thread, clean the stem insert area, then screw in the new knobs snugly until secure. Avoid overtightening to prevent stripping the threads. Ensure base stem and pole are properly aligned before tightening.
When should I replace these knobs and what are the signs of wear?
Replace the knobs if you notice the knob is cracked, the knob handle spins without tightening, the umbrella pole moves in the base stem, or you cannot properly secure the pole. Regularly check knob tightness every season as part of patio furniture maintenance.
Are replacement parts like this covered under warranty or returnable?
Because this is a replacement hardware part for a base, warranty and return policies may differ from full products. Many retailers mark “parts sales are final” — always check the supplier’s return policy. Also retain proof of purchase if warranty coverage is relevant.
