10 tips for purchasing tents

When speaking about size, we are mainly referring to the surface area (length and width). The height of gazebos can be adjusted in at least three stages with a button.

• Small gazebo: up to 2m x 2m (1-2 people recommended to put it up)
• Medium gazebo: 3m x 3m to 4m x 4m (2-3 people recommended to put it up)
• Large gazebo: 5m x 5m to 4m x 8m (3+ people recommended to put it up)

Small tents are ideal primarily for smaller events or promotional appearances. Medium to large tents offer space for multiple people and are well suited, for example, for celebrations and gatherings to protect them from rain or sun. You can find more detailed information on maximum capacity in our folding tent size guide.

The larger the gazebo, the more often it is used and the more likely it is to be exposed to rain and wind, the more stable it should be. The stability of gazebos is mainly determined by two factors.

Depending on the venue, more or less space may be available. With our folding tents, you can make optimal use of the available area by combining multiple tents with one another. This is easily achieved using our connectors.

Side walls not only provide a printable advertising space, but also protect your customers from environmental factors such as sun, wind, and rain.

• A side wall can be attached to each side of the pop up gazebo. This way, the gazebo can be opened or closed on any number of sides.
  
• Side walls are mounted in an incredibly flexible way using velcro. This means that the walls can be removed or replaced at any time.
  
• There are many different variants. Each wall can be equipped with windows or doors or be completely closed.

Thanks to our accessories, you can equip your folding tents with additional useful features.

• Radiant heater: For use on cool nights or cold days
• Lighting: Battery-operated, for use without a power source
• Rain gutters: For use between interconnected gazebos
• Flag holder: For attaching an advertising flag
• Alu counter: Provides a practical counter surface

When properly selected and equipped, pop up gazebos can withstand all four elements.

Schirmmacher generally offers four different tent series. They differ in terms of their technical specifications, features, and sizes.

Due to their size alone, tents are considered highly attractive advertising spaces. There are various options available for custom-printing a tent.

• Simple logo print:
  With a simple logo print, a logo is printed in the desired position once or even several times.
  
• Full-surface print:
  Every pop up gazebo in our range can have printing all over it. A white fabric is used as the basis, which is printed using digital printing. This makes it possible to create a design with any background colour and with any motive or image!
  
• Additional inside print:
  The inside of the gazebo can also have printing all over it. The fabric is doubled for this so that the print does not show through on the outside.

Accessories for added functionality and convenience during assembly and transport:

• Ropes and tent stakes: For additional securing (included with all folding tents)
  
• Bags: For transport and storage (included in all folding tents)
  
• Connectors: For combining tents from the same product line in any configuration
  
• Weights for ballasting: For greater wind stability
  
• Wheels: For even greater mobility
