Simple Directions on How to set up a Canopy Tent

Canopy tents have been designed to be set up as quickly and efficiently as possible. They are often used for various types of events, parties, functions and on camping trips. Setting up your own canopy tent doesn't need to be a hassle, all you need to do is follow a simple formula. While the canopy tent you purchased may have its own system of poles and attachments, every canopy tent generally follows the same basic formula.

Step 1

Once you have chosen the location for your function or event, clear away any small rocks and debris where you want the canopy tent to go. You can then remove your canopy tent from its casing, make sure to do this slowly and safely.

Step 2

Pull out on one side of the tent to open the roof and extend the poles. Pull down on the poles to telescope and lock them into position. Keep your eyes open for metal knobs sticking out from the holes, this will indicate that the tent poles are locked into position. Certain poles make the use of lock dials which secure the poles in place. Turn these dials until the poles are locked into position.

Step 3


Now set the canopy tent on the ground so the roof is up. Once this is done, secure any rope or guy-lines to the ground by hammering them with pegs. Make sure each rope goes in different directions so that the canopy is fully secure against strong winds.

  1. BUYERS BEWARE: a1tarps.com in Rancho Dominquez, CA is a VERY crooked company! I bought a simple 8x8 tarp from them for which they charged me $10.88 and then added $15.73 on top of that just to ship it to me. Twice, it never arrived when the UPS tracking system said it would. So when I found one for $3 bucks in Walmart, I snatched it right up. After that, when the 8x8 tarp from A1Tarps finally did arrive, I wrote “REFUSED” on the package and sent it back to them, hoping they would do the right thing and credit me for the tarp that I never opened. Unfortunately, that was not to be the case. Through a serious of rude emails and two phone calls Fernando, one of their CSRs, in a very condescending tone told me I was responsible for the return shipping costs to which he claimed was over $17.00! So they KEPT the tarp and never credited me a penny back. In short, they ripped me off!!!
