Camelot Special Events & Tents, Inc.

Rental Canopies (Tents) are not hard to install, and they can save you a lot of money. Most people can set them up in about an hour. You need at least two people and preferably four (one for each corner). During installation, questions may come up about how to complete a part of the install in the best and easiest way, or what a particular part is for. For instance, you may notice there are thin ropes hanging next to each side pole and center pole. They are called “Jump Ropes” and are tied to each of the side poles and center poles to keep the tent top from jumping off the pin at the top of the pole. Once the top lifts off the pin, the pole could either fall over or punch a hole in the tent top. Many people don’t know what jump ropes are for and don’t use them. It is smart to use them to prevent injury to your guests. It can also save you money in repair costs. Not to mention the holes, that once made by the pole will leak profusely during a rain all over your event. Tip #
