bag, Pole storage bags

jbutler — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 23:49:04 +0000

Poles bags are made of heavy duty PVC coated vinyl with lengthwise zippers for easy loading. Sturdy handles for easy carrying. And reinforced (double layer) ends for ruggedness.

They are available in sizes ranging from 10″ diameter x 104″ long up to 19″ diameter x 180″ long. Custom sizes are also available.

These pole bags are typically used to store frame components such as rafter spreader poles, vertical support poles and ground poles & thresholds. The larger diameter bags can accommodate foot bases as well.

bag, “Tube” style canopy storage bag

jbutler — Thu, 17 Jun 2010 18:37:09 +0000

A “tube” style storage bag can be used in place of our standard canopy roof bag to help keep the canopy clean during set-up and tear down. This is only applicable when the canopy has the “zippered bolt rope strip” option.
This bag is built to the same length of the canopy with a lengthwise zipper and handles. The canopy roof is fan-folded lengthwise and placed into the bag. During set-up the bag is taken to the rooftop of the trailer, unrolled and unzipperd. The roof is now ready to be installed. During tear down, the bag is laid out on the ground at the outer eave. The roof can now slide down the rafters into the bag.

bag, Canopy storage & shipping

Our canopies and canopy skirts come with heavy duty vinyl storage/shipping bags. These bags include a repair kit sewn inside one of the flaps and clear vinyl windows on the outside for shipping and identification labels. Each bag has two handles on each end and zippers to open and close. The zipper tabs are protected from damage during shipment.

Footman’s Loop

A footman’s loop is a low profile metal bracket that provides an anchor point on the trailer to secure various sections of the canopy.
Some of the common places they are utilized include:
– The canopy roof ~ To tension the bolt rope end to end.
– Roof ends ~ To tether the roof ends to the trailer when a “C” channel is not practical.
– Skirts ~ As with roof ends, skirts can be strapped to the trailer side via footman’s loops.

The loops fasten with either two rivets or 2 bolts. They only protrude 1/2″ out from the trailer and can accommodate straps up to two inches wide.

Yellowing

Our canopy fabrics are treated with UV inhibitors to reduce the yellowing effects of the sun’s ultra violet rays. They are also treated to be mildew resistant and flame retardant.

A/C Cut-outs

Custom cut-outs can be added to the canopy’s skirts or roof-ends to accommodate any A/C or heating unit. These cut-outs can be built with roll-up covers for when the units are not installed.

Pole storage bags

Pole bags are a convenient way to organize your frame poles and foot bases for safe keeping. They are not, however, intended to store frame rafters.

These bags are made of heavy duty vinyl with double layer reinforced ends, lengthwise zippers and handles on the ends. Standard sizes range from 10″ diameter x 104″ long up to 19″ diameter x 180″ long. Custom sizes are also available.

Continuous verses Individual Half Height skirts

Half height skirts provide a perimeter barrier while allowing visibility into and out of the canopy. These skirts are available in two versions. Continuous and individual.

Continuous half skirts travel across the vertical support poles. The skirts are joined by zippers at the poles. The “Gary Fisher” skirt in the photo is a continuous skirt.

Individual half skirts hang from the 1/2 height horizontal poles between the vertical support poles. The “Saab” skirt in the photo is an individual skirt.
