What s the difference between a frame tent and a pole tent?
A pole tent is held up by tension and requires anywhere from 12-40 stakes. A frame tent requires minimal staking, maybe 4-6 stakes, and is held up by a piped frame. People usually order framed tents when they want their tent in an area where they can’t or don t want to stake. You can use water barrels instead of stakes ONLY on a frame tent. Water barrels can not be used on pole tents. We will not install any tent unless it is staked.
