How to Assemble a Portable Gazebo or Screen House

A portable gazebo or screen house is used as a temporary structure, primarily for entertaining or providing protection from the elements at outdoor events. These structures usually set up within just a few minutes. Correct assembly protects the gazebo as well as its occupants. The canopy is not designed for use in the snow; the fabric can't withstand the weight of snow. If the structure is not securely anchored, wind can collapse the frame and canopy.

Instructions

Position one person on each end of the frame. Grip each end. Walk backward while pulling on the frame to open it just enough so it sits securely on the ground. Do not open it fully.

Unfold the fabric canopy. Drape the fabric over the frame. Center the fabric on top of the frame. Connect the ends of the fabric to the frame legs with the hook-and-loop clasps.

Grip each end of the frame. Walk slowly backward to fully open the frame.

Pull out each leg until the spring loaded connection pops into place.

Place the small anchors through the hole on each foot. Hammer the anchor into the ground.

Measure out from each leg at least 36 inches for the large anchors. The rope connecting the anchor to the structure must sit at a 45 degree angle.

Hammer the large anchors into the ground at the same distance from each leg. Tie each rope piece tightly to the anchor and the rope holder on the top corners.

Open the screen fully. Position one person on each end of the screen. Grip the corners. Lift both corners of the screen up to the middle of the front of the structure. Connect the hook-and-loop straps on the screen to the frame. Work around the structure, connecting all straps to the frame and legs.
