Garden gazebos and tents

A covered spot in the garden that provides shade, privacy and protection from the rain. Garden gazebos and tents include fixed and folding gazebos and pavilions, party tents and quick-to-pitch pop-up tents, often with side walls and a mosquito net. They differ in size, frame construction and the durability of the roof canvas, so it is easy to choose a shelter for a get-together, a party or the whole season.

Garden gazebos and tents

A pleasant time outdoors lasts longer in the shade and dry under a sturdy shelter. Garden gazebos and tents create a covered space on the terrace and lawn for eating, resting or celebrating and, when needed, close it off with side walls against sun, wind and insects. They are chosen by the size of the area, how often they are used and whether they are to stand all season or fold away after the event.

A more lasting solution is offered by gazebos and pavilions. Fixed gazebos with a metal or aluminium frame and a textile or solid roof stay outdoors longer, while folding pavilions can be put up and taken down depending on the weather. Side walls, a mosquito net or curtains add privacy and protect against sun and insects.

For occasional use, party and pop-up tents are the choice. Pop-up tents pitch in moments and suit a market, a party or quick shade, while party tents in sizes of 3×3, 3×6 and larger cover a bigger group. Most have removable side panels, windows and height-adjustable legs.

The construction and durability are decisive. A steel frame is firm and stable, an aluminium one lighter and rust-free; a roof canvas of polyester or PE with a water-repellent and UV-resistant finish copes better with rain and sun. On larger tents, anchoring with pegs or weights against the wind is important, and for the winter it is practical to store the canvas and frame away so that they last longer.
