The Rental Guy -- you do an excellent job explaining everything in a clear and understandable manner. We also can detect that you are a superior intellect and an outstanding business man.

Dude, in 10 minutes you just saved me from having to buy another canopy for my backyard. Just had a serious wind storm up here in NYC and it flipped my canopy over save for the end that was tied into the ground

[@johannjohann6523]

Adding wire between the posts in an X-configuration and using a turnbuckle to tighten will strengthen the "portable" tent enough to be permanent or semi permanent and you only need to do 2 sides opposite of each other not all 4. And then you could even add some sides for privacy and more shade. If you go semi permanent you'll need to add grommets to the canopy top, those velcro ties won't hold a thing. And make sure to add a strip of Gorilla tape tent tape along the edge where you make the holes for the grommets. that will reinforce the canopy so it won't tear in high winds. Just go around the entire outer edge like making a seem. It's good stuff. If you don't sturdy the legs sure the big anchor posts in the ground he showed in the video sure they won't pull out of the ground, but that doesn't mean the legs for the canopy can't be bent and warped by heavy wind.

thanks so much for the tips I had a tear in my canopy going to be looking into the trex tape now ...this was really helpful .

[@Gonethinkin]

Do you have a link for the light clips? Thanks

[@nadagabri5783]

Talk about to the point and good info. Thank you

[@bencoe1003]

Another great video bro!!! We love you and appreciate you bro!

[@joranmoore5663]

Hey, man. We have a gazebo but it's on a concrete patio. We can't drill into it but we still need to secure it. Any tips or tricks?

[@marcmueller8778]

Great Info! Quick question... How do you make sure you don't hit anything underground with the 15 inch auger stakes? Thank you so much 😀

[@bombproofbushcraft]

noit sure if you will reply, but at about 1:15 in, you show some parts. Where the heck do you gt those parts. Currently I have two ABCTent 10x10 pop-ups and am ordering a 10x20 from euromax today. I just need the little plastic parts and the bolt and the nut and I would be all set on repairing my older popups. I can not seem to find them anywhere (I can order the entire truss system at some companies, but no where can I find just the plastic do-dads you showed at that mark in the video). They get lost over time and fall off and make the pop up much less stable. Any help will be much appreciated!

[@olmcmonnie7445]

I'll b3 using these tips for camping.

[@christophervela5447]

So what would you say are cons about using the canopy anchor sand bags in the wind?

[@leewright4941]

Great info. Thanks. I've been using the GroundGrabba screw in stakes. They're great in soft soil but don't work in hard ground. Yes I'm finding my standard ratchets get tangled a lot. I finally bought a 10x20 quality pop-up a few weeks ago. It was booked all last weekend & twice this weekend. So much easier to set up than the 20x20 high peak but then again doesn't generate as much revenue & you can't beat the look of a high peak in my opinion.

[@therentalguy]

If the ground is tough bring some 2 litres of water with you. Soften up the ground before you put the stake in. Yes I know that this defeats the purpose of giving maximum holding power. But it’s what I have done from time to time when it gets annoying to rotate the stake into hard ground.

[@erbrooks]

Where do you buy ur 10x20 tents?

[@hire2serve]

mate, you're fantastic. just bought a couple of props you stated off Amz.

[@kayionhamm8925]

Where can I buy the side walls? What’s the name of the clips when entering it on Amazon?

[@carlosmelendez8317]

I had a nice canopy just bought 3 months ago and a storm just came and flipped it over and broke the frame a bit. So pissed and now I gotta figure out how to anchor.?

[@Gr8fldeadhead]

If I anticipate putting 2-3 sides up to prevent the wind from knocking over my products (crochet plush and knit beanies) would you have any further suggestions? One market I do is literally right off lake Saint Clair and it can sometimes get really windy!!!

[@frittelindahl]

The best👍👌

[@NautiPics360-tf6rl]

what is the name of the adaptor tool??????

[@thickbrutha]

Can you link the ratchets? I’d like to get exactly those!

[@therentalguy]

Hey, They are Erickson Retractable Ratchets: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHataqmae6ihjdE

[@Jr-ro3jy]

Hey Lee the TRex tape is it the packaging tape, I see many different styles and types?

[@lmphashby]

what is the name of the red bit??

[@alexandermoore3341]

Hey friend. Great video and info, thanks! Quick question, where do you get your window sidewalls for the 20x20 high peak tent? And do they connect to the tent top by velcro sraps? I like that style of window. Thanks in advance.

Thank you!!

Thx!🙏 Subscribed!💢

[@rolandomarco]

Good work both on the video production and business info! Any solid advice for dealing with popup tents on windy beaches?

[@therentalguy]

Thanks for the comment! I’d say those earth auger stakes are the key to securing your popup canopy in the sand.

[@missqaisaqua757]

Whats the size of the earth anchors? I'm having trouble looking for them ones in that size?

[@therentalguy]

15”. I get mine from Peavy Mart.

[@seanhaecker2256]

Love your business growth man! You mentioned selling smaller tents to be combined into bigger tents, how do you market this on booqable for customers to understand?

[@therentalguy]

On Booqable in the pro subscription you can make bundles. So I have my inventory as 10x20’s but I bundle them into a package. So for example the tent would appear as 20x20 Popup on the website but the inventory that gets bundled together for a 20x20 Popup is (2) 10x20s, (1) 20ft gutter, (6) cathedral window walls and (9) stakes and ratchets. This way the customer doesn’t have to add all of the items that they need because it would be to confusing. The key is making the booking process as simple as possible. I make it simple for them. Here’s my review video on Booqable: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n3WqlIeZirOHn8k However I will be making an advanced updated Booqable video explainer when I get the chance.

[@angieramirez5642]

When u put two or more canopies together,do u put rain gutters m

[@therentalguy]

For Popup tent only if rain is expected because pop up tent gutters are pretty ugly. For marquee tents I almost always put up gutters between tents because the morning condensation adds up in my area and leaves very small puddles on anything sitting in the space between the tents (tables and dancefloor). If I don’t have any gutters left I make sure the tables don’t go in the spaces where the dew drops.

[@saraswatkin9226]

Is there less risk of soft gazebo blowing away if it has side panels?

[@therentalguy]

More risk of blowing away with sides.

You ever hit anything underground? Around here cables are buried at 4 inches

[@carlosa1038]

Great video I never knew you could pack away your canopy with cover still in tact. Do you recommend this? Is it safe?

[@therentalguy]

I always pack away intact. On the cheaper tops you need to fluff the tops up before you squeeze the frame closed so that the top doesn’t get caught in the arms when it closes. Solution is use quality tops.

I'm new to tenting and stepped into the Google tornado "best way to secure my shelter" and I was dropped here, perfect, thanks!
