Replacement Canopy Installation Instructions
Safety First: WARNING!!! This process requires a person to use a ladder to reach the top of the gazebo.
It is important that the ladder that you use be stable and safe. It is important that a second person be
present in the event you need help. Safety should be your number one priority to prevent falling during
installation. If you do not feel comfortable removing or installing the canopy, please seek a professional
for help.
Remove Your Old Canopy First
1. Ladder - You will need a stable ladder that will allow you to safely reach the top of the gazebo.
2. Loosen Bottom Tier Canopy – Unfasten all Velcro straps. Velcro straps are usually located on the
seams of the canopy. Next begin removing the bottom tier canopy. Start with any corner. Pull the
canopy fabric away from the corner, and then towards the center of the gazebo roof. Repeat this for all
four corners of the bottom tier canopy. With the bottom tier canopy loosened, push the fabric of the
bottom tier towards the center of the roof, and let the canopy sit there on the frame for now. Now it’s
time to remove the top tier canopy.
3. Remove the Top Tier Canopy – Start by removing the roof bars from the corner pockets. Do this by
pulling the corner pockets away from the center of the gazebo. Repeat this for all four corners. Unfasten
any Velcro straps that are attached to the top tier frame. You should now be able to completely remove
the top tier canopy from your gazebo.
4. Remove the Bottom Tier Canopy – Remove the bottom tier canopy from the gazebo by looping the
center square hole through the top tier frame. The top tier frame has four prongs, each pointing
towards one corner of the gazebo. This process will require you to loop the center hole of the bottom
canopy through one prong at a time. The first prong is always the most difficult. The process gets easier
with each prong of top tier. If the center hole of the canopy is too tight to fit through the prongs, you
may need to temporarily loosen the prongs of the top tier from the hub. Once done, you can completely
remove the canopy from the gazebo.
Installing New Canopy
1. Ladder - You will need a stable ladder that will allow you to safely reach the top of the gazebo.
2. Partially Install Bottom Tier Canopy – First, remove the top tier from the bottom tier by unzipping the
netting that attaches the top tier and bottom tier together. Then, begin by installing the bottom tier
canopy first. Do this by looping the center square hole of the bottom canopy through the top tier frame.
