We've based this guide on our tent, as this shares similar design features as traditional aluminium folding tent. Step 1: Unzip the door Head to the front of your tent and unzip the front door. This allows trapped air to escape the tent which will make it easier to compress and fold. At this stage, you may also want to consider giving the tent a quick wipe down so that it isn't dirty for the next time you use it. Step 2: Fold from back to front Grab the centre of the rear base pole and begin to fold upwards, until you meet the roof pole. Grab both of them together with one hand. Then, whilst holding the two poles in place, reach over and grab the front base pole and pull it upright to meet the other poles you're currently holding, putting all of the poles now into one hand. Step 3: Lift the tent and rotate Lift the tent and put it on its side so that it stands vertically, keeping a hold of the tent using one of your hands. Step 4: Pull down With your spare hand, grab the top part of the tent and pull it down towards your feet. Step 5: Slide rings Now that you've folded the tent towards the base of your feet, you should see two circles of the tents frame slightly overlapping. Slide one ring under the other, then press down on the tent to let any of the remaining air escape. The tent should now be folded into a circular shape. Step 6: Bag it up Would you have interests about outdoor garden gazebo?
