How do you properly ancor this canopy? (Obviously, I'm a newbe in the canopy area.)

In addition to the feet mentioned by another suggestion, each corner of the canvas top has a loop to tie a rope on and attach to a stake. Also, if you are going on the cheap, purchase 5 gallon plastic buckets (Lowe's, etc) to fill with sand, gravel or water if you can't stake the ropes. Amazon has sand bags and other items designed to hold the canopy down in a windy situation. Lots of choices!

Once you put the canopy on the frame and loop the straps over the eyebolts at the bottom of the legs, it will hold together very well. Mine blew off my deck in a strong windstorm because I didn't have it secured down. It stayed completely together in spite of rolling several times. Much easier putting up with 2 people, but you can do it alone.

I am not sure if you are just putting this up for an event or keeping it up for an extended period of time. If it is just for an event, then I would use sand bags tied to the bottom of each of the poles. I live in Vancouver, Wa near the Gorge and we get High winds about 4 to 5 times during the year, and my canopy is set up year round and acts as another room off my patio, and we have the canopy bolted to the house in several places on one side of the canopy and several steal stakes in the ground on the other side where we taped the poles to the stakes. It has servived 2 springs one summer, and a winter. I am very happy with this one, and over the years we have tried several other canopies. Hope the sand bag idea is helpful, dress them up if this is for an important event. 20 lbs per pole is my suggestion. GOOD-LUCK !!!!

Ok John, lol I'm so glad you posted this because it made me take the time to go and give it another try. Someone else actually put this together so I never had a chance to see the instructions. So here's what you need to do. Snap the top part of the canopy on behind those 2 raised bolts that are sticking up. Then glide the canopy right over the two bolts...the bolts sticking up are what secure the canopy to the carriage. Problem solved. Hope this helps!!

I'm not the seller... Just a buyer ;) ... and I just bought a solid gray canopy, nothing else. You may want to check with the seller though.

This should be fairly straight forward for anyone who has set up a tent before. If not, it still is a breeze. 1. place the tent on top of a footprint/plastic sheet if using one. 2. ensure tent is with doors up (zippers up) 3. the two long poles will go diagonally across the tent in an "X" pattern. They will clip into the pole grabber hooks along the edges of the tent. 4. clip the small pole perpendicular to the tent doors and to the top of the tent and into its end caps at the front and back top of the tent. 5. Stake down tent. 6. Attach rain fly over tent and connect the clasps to the tent corners. 7. Stake down or tree-tie the rain fly so rain will bead off of tent.

The canopy is made to be planted in the ground using the included ground spikes to stabilize the canopy.if your going to put it on a cement surface and its windy it will be a problem.

They are separate pieces. The fram goes up part way and then the canopy is attached.

The canopy can I'm uncertain about the body. I throw down a blanket when we use it. We spilled a sippy in it, I wiped it out and took a hot, wet rag to it then let it air dry, it was good as new. Also, I've used my handheld vac to remove dirt and sand.

The canopy has many adjustments by sliding up and down the support bar. The only thing hanging down on the right of mine is the mesh pocket. You may be looking at the locking bar which is the horizontal elbow to hold the canopy wide open. Hope you enjoy yours as much as I have this Summer. JHW

Instructions should have accompanied the wall mesh covers. If not you just have to open the walls and make sure the windows open from the bottom. You should then have across the top Velcro straps which you attach to the top of your canopy frame. There are straps going down the sides of the wall which need to be attached to the legs. Attach the other three walls in the same way. Each wall has two sides with zippers. Hook the zippers together so they zip from top to bottom. The 4th was has no windows just one long zipper in the middle. Attach it in the same way. I hope this makes sense and it works for you. If you have any questions let me know.

I used the canopy to put over my dog kennel. It will take more then one person to put it up.

A straight leg canopy is needed to get the maximum room. If you use a slanted leg canopy it will sag and you lose usable space.

You'll need to accordion fold them up. It works. We folded up several folds and put the clip in the middle of the shade. Then we pulled the sides down to meet in the center and clipped the two sides together. Think of an upside down fan. It looks pretty but hard to explain. Doing this little maneuver, let's some light in while maintaining privacy. Reduces the amount of up and down of the shade.

The canopy should be put up with a slight angle so water may run off. Eventually water will pass through it but at first it will pool if it doesn't have a certain slope to it.

The outside of the canopy overlaps the netting at the top. It worked well for me last year.

It has eyelets that you can then use screws to attached the canopy. Good luck.
