20' x 200' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 8' Pole and Fitting Kit

20' x 200' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 8' Pole and Fitting Kit

The 20' x 200' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 8' Pole and Fitting Kit represents the maximum linear expansion of the classic frame system, engineered for extreme professional applications requiring a massive, continuous covered footprint. Providing a monumental 4,000 square feet of coverage, this kit is a critical asset for rental companies managing the largest-scale outdoor events, such as multi-hundred-guest wedding receptions, long-format corporate gala dinners, or major regional festivals. By utilizing high-strength single-tube aluminum construction, the system maintains a manageable weight-to-strength ratio for transport and assembly. The 8-foot leg height creates an open, premium interior atmosphere with improved airflow and visibility across the entire 200-foot span.

This kit serves as a comprehensive hardware foundation for a West Coast Style frame system. Because it adheres to industry-standard dimensions, all components are fully interchangeable with existing West Coast inventories, allowing for simplified maintenance and modular fleet flexibility. The 20' x 200' footprint is specifically engineered for sites requiring maximum linear protection—such as covering massive vendor rows or creating long-format VIP hospitality suites—while maintaining a prestigious aesthetic. Whether you are performing a complex tent installation for a community milestone or providing industrial-grade weather protection, this kit offers the durability required for repeated professional use.

Why the 8-Foot Single Tube System Matters

In the professional event industry, an 8-foot leg height has become the preferred choice for creating a more inviting and high-end environment. The 20' x 200' Classic Frame Aluminum Single Tube 8' Pole and Fitting Kit is engineered to stay square and secure, providing a stable environment that far exceeds the capabilities of consumer-grade shelters. The additional head clearance is critical for accommodating taller equipment, large-scale event signage, or overhead climate control and lighting systems without a "cramped" feeling for guests. For a professional event setup, this translates to a clean, taut canopy line and superior structural impact over an immense area. The modular nature of the frame also allows for efficient teardown and organized storage.

• Corrosion-Resistant Materials: Anodized aluminum and plated steel components are built to resist oxidation through years of outdoor exposure.

How to Use / Installation Best Practices

Assembling a 200-foot-long frame requires precise alignment and a coordinated crew of 10 to 14 people to ensure a safe tent installation.

Step 1: Inventory and Site Layout Clear the massive installation area and lay out the rafters, spreaders, and 8-foot legs on a protective drop cloth. Given the extreme length, organize the components meticulously to ensure all R-pins and fittings are present before beginning the event setup.

Step 2: Roof Frame Assembly Assemble the roof framework at ground level by connecting the crowns to the rafters and the perimeter spreaders. It is critical to verify that every joint is secured with R-pins or pin-and-bail fasteners to maintain structural integrity and prevent the frame from "snaking" during the lift.

Step 3: Vinyl Top Placement While the frame is still low to the ground, pull your 20' x 200' vinyl top over the structure. Centering the top and securing it to the perimeter spreaders at this stage is the only safe method to manage the immense volume of fabric before the frame is raised.

Step 4: Raising the Frame With a large, coordinated crew distributed evenly along the length, lift one 200-foot side of the frame and insert the 8-foot leg poles into the fittings. Repeat the process for the opposite side. Lifting in perfect unison is mandatory to avoid putting undue stress on the aluminum joints across such an extreme span.

Step 5: Critical Anchoring Structures of this size have an enormous wind profile. Immediate stake driving and anchoring with heavy-duty ratchet straps at every single leg is required. Tension the straps evenly to ensure the structure remains stable, square, and professional in appearance against lateral forces.
