How to Set up Pop Up Gazebos

As with most tasks, preparation is the key and putting up pop up gazebos is no different. By following these tips, you will have your pop up gazebo up in no time, fuss and hassle free (is there such a thing?).

FIND SPACE Obviously your first task is to locate where your pop up gazebo is to be put up. This space needs to be as flat as possible and devoid of any debris or mess.

COUNT THE PIECES IN THE BOX As with anything new that you buy, make sure that when you unpack it, all the parts and pieces are correct and present.

DO YOU HAVE MAN POWER? Most pop up gazebos are designed to be able to be put up by one person, however it’s much easier with two. If you have a pair of helping hands, arrange to get them on site at the time you plan to put it all up (I wonder would anybody be THAT organized to pre-plan like that?? Possibly, but I'm certainly not one of them)

TREAT Have some chocolate or cake ready for when you’ve finished (not essential to the proceedings but helpful nonetheless)

Some pop up gazebos will come with the gazebo cover already attached and on others you will have to fix them onto the frame yourself. Try and read through the instructions before you start this project. It always helps to have an idea of what is required rather than guessing and doing the wrong thing, therefore breaking the gazebo before you’ve had chance to enjoy it. See the video on the home page for a better idea of what it all entails.
