If you are ordering a tent frame or angle kit for wall tents you already have please fill out the form below. Either call us with the measurements or email the measurements. Insure all wall tents are taut but not stretched when measuring to insure accuracy.




How To Measure

LAY YOUR TENT ON THE GROUND TO OBTAIN MEASUREMENTS.

YOU WILL NEED SOMEONE TO HELP YOU MEASURE TO INSURE THE CANVAS IS TAUGHT WHEN MEASURING

( A ) WALL HEIGHT- Distance from bottom of canvas - to wall and roof intersection at the seam.

( B ) RAFTER/SLOPE - Measure from ridge,( center of ridge grommet) to where roof and wall intersect at the seam. Do not measure the eave- black webbing on wilderness tent.

( C ) WIDTH - from one side of tent to the other.

( D) LENGTH OF TENT. Seam to seam.

If the tent is several years old, measure from the end seams about 5"-10" from the bottom, where the tent isn't as stretched. Measuring wall tents at this location will be more accurate and your frame will fit better.

DO NOT ROUND YOUR NUMBERS - WE NEED EXACT MEASUREMENTS.

Tent frames and angle kits are made custom made for all wall tents to ensure years of service.
