Our selection of party tents will keep your guests comfortable whatever the occasion. Love your garden with our selection of gazebos, parasols and awnings!

Metal gazebos have a cool, contemporary look that will add a touch of summer glamour to your garden, keeping you comfortable when you need a little extra shade. Choose from open canopy metal gazebos which give you overhead cover or a steel gazebo with sides for a private and shady place to chill.

ENJOY TIME WITH FAMILY AND FRIENDS IN A PATIO GAZEBO

The back garden is a great place to spend time with family and friends and a Patio Gazebo could do wonders to make it an even more attractive and relaxing place to be. We all love evenings around the grill and the smell of delicious food wafting through the evening air. A patio gazebo from SHEDMASTER can be a great place to spend that time.

RELAX IN THE PATIO GAZEBO AFTER A HARD DAY OF WORK
You also will find a patio gazebo a great place to relax after a hard day of work. Come home and prop up your feet while smelling the scent of fresh flowers around the patio gazebo. You’ll be more ready to face another day on the job.

WATCH THE KIDS FROM THE PATIO GAZEBO IN YOUR GARDEN

A garden patio also provides a comfortable place to watch the kids play in the backyard. We all know that children need space to run around but they also love when mom and dad are around to watch their fun. A backyard space for mom and dad to relax while the kids play nearby will encourage the little ones run off their energy just before bedtime. They, as well as mom and dad will sleep better because of it!

QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE CONCERNING PATIO GAZEBO’S

1. HOW TO ANCHOR A GAZEBO TO CONCRETE PATIO
   The best way to anchor a Gazebo to a concrete patio is with wedge anchors. A wedge anchor installed at every post of a Gazebo will keep your Gazebo from blowing over. Wedge anchors are designed to anchor objects into concrete by way of a pre-drilled hole and are the easiest way to install a Gazebo onto a concrete patio.
2. CAN YOU USE A PATIO HEATER IN A GAZEBO
   Yes, you can use a Patio Heater in a Gazebo. There are a few safety tips you are going to want to keep in mind when using a Patio Heater in a Gazebo. Never use a Patio Heater that has an open flame, this could potentially cause damage to the Gazebo or bodily harm to you. Whether your Gazebo is wood or vinyl, be sure to not place the Patio Heater too close to the walls or ceiling of the structure. Feel free to enjoy your Patio Gazebo during the winter months, but make sure you are always doing it safely.
3. HOW TO SECURE A GAZEBO ON TO A PATIO
   Wedge anchors are used to secure a Gazebo to a concrete patio. If your Patio is composed wood or composite decking then using lags to fasten the Gazebo frame to the patio will suffice. Each patio is different but it is important that your Gazebo is secured to the patio no matter what the patio is composed of. If you have a paver patio then installing footers/ piers into the ground is the best option. You can then use wedge anchors to fasten your Gazebo to your footers/ piers.

When the weather’s this good, it’s only right to experience as much of it as you can.

Thankfully with flexi-working now the norm, it’s easy to spend your lunch break chilling out in the garden, if you have one. However, rolling around on the grass does admittedly have its limits – to get the most from your garden, you’ll need a few choice investments to make it the best place in the house, over the summer and beyond.

From all-out dining sets to bistro-style tables and chairs, hammocks and parasols, there are plenty of ways to kit out your outdoor space.

If you’re after a more natural look, a garden pergola may be the best option for you.

What exactly is a pergola?
No need to look embarrassed, it’s a question that’s rarely asked and, beyond garden centre fanatics, many would struggle to give you a concise answer.

In short, a pergola is four beams that support an open, lattice-style roof of beams and rafters. They can provide the framework for trailing plants or simply create a designated structure for living and entertaining. When the sun is particularly fierce, it can also provide some measure of dappled shade – an appealing prospect when temperatures begin to nudge the 30 degree mark.

How to install a pergola
Unless you’ve got a wealth of building experience, it’s probably wise to get the professionals in. The most important parts are the posts that support the roof; they must be anchored well into the ground with concrete and heavy metal brackets. There are plenty of free PDFs on the internet if you fancy sinking your teeth into a DIY project.

Whatever look you’re going for, we’ve rounded up the best garden pergolas below to help you make the most of the fair weather.

Carports can do a great job of protecting your car, truck, boat, motorcycle, garden machinery, and more from winter weather and summer sun. For those who don’t have a garage, a carport is an affordable alternative that can often be assembled in a few hours.

Deciding on the best carport can be difficult as there are many options designed to fulfill specific needs. Some are lightweight, temporary structures while others are more permanent. There are many different configurations, too.

Keep reading to find out the important details to consider, and learn about the pros and cons of some of the best carports currently available.

Before You Buy a Carport
Carports vary from simple shelters to durable enclosures that keep vehicles and equipment hidden from prying eyes. However, it’s fair to say that even locking models don’t offer a huge amount of protection from a determined thief. If security is a major concern, or the goal is to install a workbench, refrigerator, or other convenience, then it might be worth investing in a prefabricated garage.

Keep in mind that local zoning laws may prevent someone from installing a carport. There may be outright bans or restrictions on size or how close it can be placed to a neighbour’s property line, and a permit (and a fee) may also be necessary. Make sure to check with the local municipality before buying. Don’t make assumptions just because someone nearby has added a carport.

What to Consider When Choosing the Best Carports
There are hundreds of good carports on the market with something to suit virtually every need. In order to get the right balance between features and value, each of the following aspects are important to consider.

Fixed vs. Collapsible
At the budget end of the market, collapsible carports are little more than a fabric canopy over a steel or aluminium frame. Good ones are nevertheless capable of protecting a car from bad weather or from strong sunlight that can bleach the car’s paintwork. Other models can have enclosed sides, zippered doors, and even windows. Other than cost, the big advantage with collapsible carports is that they are relatively easy to move from one place to another, and some can be easily packed away. However, over time, the fabric cover can degrade.

Fixed carports can be either attached to an existing building or freestanding. Frames are stronger than the frames of collapsible models. Roofs are steel, aluminum, or polycarbonate. These are usually intended as permanent structures, so plenty of thought needs to go into positioning.

Size
The floor space provided by a carport is obviously a key issue. While 10 feet by 20 feet is the most popular, we found those that range from a compact 10 feet by 10 feet to an enormous 20 feet by 29 feet. While most are used to protect cars or trucks, they can also be used for boats, motorcycles, garden tractors, mowers, and more. It can be difficult to visualize sizes, so it may be a good idea to tape out an area in the yard to represent the amount of space a particular carport will need.

It is also important to consider clearance height. The differences between a compact car and a large truck or a trailered boat are considerable. Be sure to check the door opening if the carport has one.

Protection
Many carports are open sided—not just collapsible models, but fixed ones, too. While these don’t offer the same level of overall protection as fully enclosed models, positioning them in a sheltered spot out of strong winds can help.

While enclosed carports provide much better defence against rain and snow, the roof and sides are invariably made of some kind of fabric. The strength and durability of this is then a key issue. Waterproofing and UV resistance are common. Nylon, polyester, and polyethylene offer good strength. So-called “ripstop” materials help prevent small tears from growing. It’s nice to find actual material thickness quoted, but often manufacturers just use phrases like “triple-layer” or “heavy-duty,” which aren’t particularly informative or helpful when trying to compare options.

Assembly and Installation
Carport assembly and installation is generally considered a job for at least two people. Although components are not particularly heavy, they can still be unwieldy. When it comes to assembling the roof, for example, it might well be necessary for someone to be standing on a ladder while the other person supports the components being fixed.

Many carports can be assembled with the tools provided, but it’s not always the case. It is an area worth checking when looking at products. There’s also the question of an appropriate surface. Collapsible carports can go just about anywhere, but fixed models generally need a hard concrete or tile base.
