Does the hole in the center of this base go all the way through? I am thinking of sitting it on my existing wrought iron base for more stability.

The hole is about 3/4 of the way through then it stops. The base is hollow and you fill it up with water or sand for weight.

It's stowed away for the winter now but my best recollection is that the hole does "not" go all the way through.

The hole is deep enough for good stability but it does not go all the way through. It does have a easy carry handle opening and a screw to tighten to hold the umbrella in place.

It's not a cage. It's a stand for a cage. If you alter the hole (drill it better) then it's steady. But if you don't drill it then nope

Yes! It has 3 holes at the base per leg. I used big galvanized screws w/ washers. That thing ain't going nowhere!

I doubt it, as you have to screw the mounting bases into something, and it would be impossible to drill them into wrought iron. Zip ties MIGHT be able to secure it,....but I doubt it.

Yes, ours has about a 2 inch hole for the umbrella. We've had ours for about 2 years on a sheltered porch (it's open, but snow doesn't directly get onto the table/chairs) through Michigan winters and it still looks great and is sturdy; no wobbles.

Mine didn't have any problem going through. You'd have difficulty drilling out the porcelain, even w/ a carbide masonry drill. Rather get the same length but a size smaller in diameter. Measure so you'll know what diameter bolt to get.

Yes there is a hole in the center. It appears to be about 3/8". There are also two mounting tabs,one on either side.

It's completely solid, not sure why you would need drain holes, out sits on the patios just between to chairs, very stable

Not thick bit it's cast iron & I would find it tough to drill through. I haven't had a problem with water accumulating for long - air dries it right up.

You have the right size hole. I had to buy a heavier base because the wind blew over the one I bought - too light weight. I got one that weighs over a 100# at Home Depot.

The holes on the base can be a bit out of alignment like happened to me. Turn the base bottom side up and do a little twisting of the heavy weight to make it work. Hope this helps.

You could cut a center hole and not "hit" a hinge. But cutting the hole is not going to be a easy task. Both sides of the 2 centers are "L" shaped for strength. Not a simple cut. And the integrity of the table will be compromised. Sharon is correct in her post. I strongly suggest no. You would be ruining a very good table.

Yes it locks into place. If you want to have a complete table you will need two units because 1 unit is only 1/2 of a complete table. My wife and I are 65+ and use it mainly as a bench on our porch since we already have a picnic table for our backyard.

Center hole is small, 1 inch diameter, and should not be used for supporting weight. Place casters in the top cup as is.

I think that is what i have. Worst case is you deill a couple of extra holes to line up with your base

center of hole is about 1/2" in from edge of plate. You can have the unit over hang on the back side if necessary

Hi Travis, my son put it together and he said that he just pushed it into the hole. We have had great luck with ours, hopefully you will as well.
