There are several web sites - and the manufacturers - that tell how to measure. In my case I have mine double strung IN the gutter as that was my issue - the ice sitting there which would then back up onto the roof.

The frame. My frame is 10'x20' and it overhangs just like the picture shows and allows for the pitch in the roof. Does somewhat take two people to put up unless you know exactly how to unfold it.

You will need to use a ladder and should have an adequate reach and good balance to take the canopy down. Recommend you have at least one other person to help.

I am not certain. I do know that the framework that was in the yard of the house that we bought was 10 feet by 10 feet and the canopy was only 9 1/2 feet square.

Perhaps replacing it with another part from an old canopy. sorry hope that helps

We live in Miami and have fairly windy days in the summer with heavy rain. We have installed our canopy using aircraft cable to trees at the perimeter of our yard, tightened up with turnbuckles and removable using lockable steel caribiners at the canopy corners. We just didn't want the look of giant poles, so our canopy looks more like a floating sail overhead. :-) Also, if you use a post you actually need to sink the poles deeper than 3 feet...the rule of thumb is 1/3 below ground, 2/3 above. So for a sail mounted 8' high, you would need a 12' pole with 4' buried. Steel pipe 3.5-4" is recommended, especially for bigger sails in a windy area.

Its a large rectangle 20 feet long by 16 wide. It is actually two piece sown together down the middle. The drawback to this is that the weight of the canopy makes it sag a bit in the middle. Especially after rain. The trick I've found is to purchase the proper mounting hardware so you can really get maximum tension to the posts (and use something that won't bend or flex, like a pipe or big tree. I also ran a 5th cable under the middle just to hold the dang thing up. We're quite happy with it. It does let some light through, so don't expect 100% shade.

Use a 45 deg triangle so that device is is pointing up at a 45 deg angle. If don't have 45 deg triangle, just fold a square paper diagonally. Move device until laser is pointing to top of tree. Make sure it is 45 deg with the ground. Now lower the laser so that it is horizontal with the ground. Aim laser at bottom of tree trunk and take a reading. That would be the height of the tree. |\ |__\

I just got this and put it together fairly easily. I can't get the final two corner of the canopy on. You need to pull the fabric taut and I don't seem to be strong enough. Any tips, am I doing something wrong?

The walls are attached to the legs by Velcro so there is some play to make it fit. No need to be super precise. Adhesive backed Velcro stick on surfaces are provided, enough to put on all four sides of the frame. I used to have a quick shade canopy and I have to say there is no drastic difference. I am pretty happy with it.

I built a canopy for ours. Email me at dnutte2@yahoo.com and I will send you a pic of the canopy I built

Unfortunately I don't have the measurments handy since the canopy was stored away fow winter

It is just half a roof. I guess it's only a problem when sun is directly overhead. If you want full coverage this prob isn't te right play house. Incidentally my daughter is 3, we've now had this for 2 yrs and she's never taken interest in it! Maybe when she's older, but for now it's sorta boring!

I was able to measure the canopy as I have not yet installed this light and went to the box and measured the diameter. Aloha...

Measure from the outside of the frame. I have a 12' trampoline (according to the manual) and when I measure the frame, it is 12'. The actual fabric is a bit shorter. This enclosure has sat outside in some narly windy & winter weather and is still holding strong. Even after packing and moving once. In fact, for the winter, I just leave the poles up and pop the top off and let the surround lay on top of the trampoline. Never had an issue.
