Our Core Shelters offer great protection from the NZ sun and rain. A portable gazebo built for NZ and our changeable local conditions. Tried and tested - continually one of our best sellers every year since 2012. Great for summer days at the beach, family picnics at the park or as your camping HQ.

The shelters are 4.5m x 4.5m with a max height of 2.4m providing 20sqm of coverage. Also includes 1 side wall which is easily clipped on to any of the side arches. A range of accessories like walls, floors, rooms and connectors means you can choose a setup that suits your needs

Our shelters are made for NZ conditions, using tough durable 150D Oxford covers to stand up to NZ's damaging sun - twice the thickness of many lower Denier shelter covers which can weaken and tear easily after exposure to the sun - read about tent fabrics and specifications and with UV resistant coating. And they have a waterproof PU3000mm coating and taped seams to keep rain out. Also has a ceiling vent to allow better airflow and avoid lifting in winds and heat build-up.

Build your own HQ with a full range of available accessories including sidewalls, walls with entrance, groundsheets, enclosed rooms, and connecting gutters to join multiple shelters.

Straightforward to set up and once familiar would take 2 people about 15 minutes. Can also be set up by one person but just takes a bit longer. Connect the 19mm steel poles, lock the pole sections into place, place the cover over the top and secure with Velcro tabs and hooks at corner feet, and set guy ropes.

We also have spare parts available to replace anything that might need changing out. We won't tell you to buy a whole new shelter.

*These are designed as recreational shelters and are not intended for permanent use.
