Particularly stable and safe

The cast iron weights are ideal if you want to secure your pop up gazebo on the terrace, the balcony, on concreteasphalt or any other hard surface. Thanks to the flat shape, the handy size of 40x40 cm and the carrying handles, the weights are very easy to handle. For even more stability, they can be effortlessly stacked. Quick, easy and without any tools.

You are surprised by sudden gusts of wind? Don't worry. The weights can be attached to the pop up gazebo in no time at all. In a jiffy. Slide the gazebo weight into the tent leg, place it on the tent foot - done.
Our cast iron weights are galvanised and thus have a long service life. In addition, corrosion and rust formation are prevented. 

Our tip:
Since it can never be assumed that there will be no wind, we always recommend professional fastening. We recommend using the 28 kg weights for all pop up gazebos measuring 3x3 m or more (3x3 m, 4.5x3 m, 4x2 m, 4x4 m, 6x3 m, 6x4 m and 8x4 m). For maximum stability, we recommend placing the 28 kg weights on all 4 or 6 feet of the pop up gazebo, which not only increases the weight of the pop up gazebo but also its support surface.

The cast iron weights are ideal if you want to secure your pop up gazebo on the terrace, the balcony, on concreteasphalt or any other hard surface. Thanks to the flat shape, the small size of 34x34 cm and the practical carrying handles, these weights are very handy and can be easily stacked.

And if suddenly violent gusts of wind appear? No problem. Simply place the weights on the base plate of the tent’s feet. Your pop up gazebo will remain standing solidly on the ground.

Our tip:
Since it can never be assumed that there will be no wind, we always recommend professional fastening. We recommend using the 15 kg weights only for small pop up gazebos (1.5x1.5 m, 2x2 m, 3x1.5 m and 3x2 m). For all other sizes, we recommend using them as an additional weight to the 28 kg weights, as this combination gives the pop up gazebo even more stability.

Gazebo ground anchors

Our weatherproof anchoring set consisting of 4 or 6 tensioning straps, 4 or 6 pegs and a hammer is perfect for soft ground, such as a lawn.

How to fix the pop up gazebo with it?

  • Attach the tensioning straps (each 3.17 m long) to the loops provided on the roof and then to the pegs using the carabiner.
  • Anchor the sturdy pegs (made of 30x10 mm thick, spiral-shaped flat iron, length: 45.5 cm) in the ground with a hammer.
  • Pull the tensioning strap tight with the ratchet.

Our tip:

As it can never be assumed that there will be no wind, we always recommend professional fastening. For best hold, the tensioning straps should run at an angle of approx. 45° to the ground. Use the tensioning straps and pegs together with the gazebo weights to achieve even greater stability.

Fixing the Gazebo to the Ground With Screws

If drilling holes in the ground is not a problem for you, we have thought of something to make your work easier...  The feet of our pop up gazebos already have holes for screws, so you don't have to drill them.
Simply follow the points below to anchor your pop up gazebo securely to the ground and sleep soundly in bad weather.

  1. Hard surface: on asphalt and pavements use at least 10 cm long screws.
  2. Soft surface: for lawns and in gardens use at least 40 cm long screws.

How to fix a pop up gazebo to asphalt?

Easy as pie

Screws or gazebo weights

There are 2 ways to attach the pop up gazebo to the road. The choice depends on the type of use.
Normally, pop up gazebos on the street have to be dismantled at the end of the day. For this reason, our galvanised steel weights (15 kg or 28 kg) are the ideal solution. They are stackable, easy to transport and rustproof.
However, if you want to leave the pop up gazebo outside all season and have the possibility to do so, we recommend drilling holes in the asphalt and fastening the pop up gazebo with 10 cm screws. This ensures long-term stability.

How to fix a pop up gazebo on the terrace?

Without damaging the floor

Weights for pop up gazebos made of galvanised steel

The gazebo weights are the optimal solution for securing the pop up gazebo on the terrace. They take up very little space, are stackable and easy to transport, and you don't have to drill holes in the floor. You can choose between 15 kg and 28 kg gazebo weights.
Aesthetics play an important role, so our pop up gazebo weights have an extremely attractive design and a neutral colour that matches any pop up gazebo, no matter what it looks like.
If it is not a problem for you to drill holes in the ground, you can also consider using screws of about 10 cm to fix the pop up gazebo on the terrace. This solution is especially recommended if you plan to leave the pop up gazebo in the same place for a longer period of time.
