Technical Information
THE FRAME
The framework of the folding garages is constructed from mild steel which has been totally galvanised.
The tubular part of the frame is constructed with 3/4" square mild steel tube 1/16" thick. Square tube provides a more rigid structure than round tube. The hinge assembly is made with 1/8" thick steel plate.
THE COVERING
The covering is a breathable polyester, 250D high strength, woven textile, with a pleasing green colour. Breathability is ensured by an, approximately, 2" gap all round between the hem of the cover and the frame. This gap promotes a good draft at ground level, ensuring the Folding Garage can deal with high humidity weather conditions.
Optional Extras
- Ground fixing.
- If you are using your folding garage on a concrete base we can supply you with ground fixing bolts to hold the frame firmly down.
- If your folding garage is on grass we can supply you with wheel plates to hold the frame down, these are also an alternative fixing method for concrete bases. The plates hold the garage in place with the weight of the car.
- The wheel plates are made from heavy duty galvanised steel construction.
- Security.
- Option 1: Security Clamp. Powerful theft deterrent. Prevents prying eyes. Heavy duty galvanised steel construction. Secure with padlock. Held in place with ground fixing bolts.
- Option 2: Extra wheel plate. When you are unable to fix a security clamp in place using ground fixing bolts an extra wheel plate can be used to hold down the opening end of the Folding Garage. You need to supply your own weight (a bucket filled with cement is ideal).
