Kermit Dining Shelter
2.5 × 2.5 m - freestanding or connected to your house

The Kermit Dining Shelter delivers a clean, architectural look with high tension, solid feel, and minimal fuss.
Each kit includes
• Matt-black aluminium frame beams (4)
• Telescopic posts — adjustable from 1.9 m to 2.5 m in 200 mm steps (4), or a pair of posts (2) and brackets (2) to connect to your house (wall or soffit versions available)
• Retainers to secure the frame to the posts (2 per post)
• Corner tensioner parts (M16) for a taut, modern finish (4 sets)
• Premium shade fabric — in your colour choice! Breathable, cool, and ideal for dining or lounging areas (1)
Why you’ll love it
• Architectural finish — taut shade, no sagging corners, and a refined look that complements any home.
• Adaptable design — freestanding in the garden or neatly connected to your house.
• DIY simple — assembles in ~2½ hours with only basic tools.
• Durable build — all fittings are 304-grade stainless steel, and the frame is marine-grade powder-coated aluminium.
Setup guide
1. Assemble the roof frame on the ground (20 min) — remember two retainers per corner.
2. Tension until the included golf ball bounces 50–75 mm when dropped in the centre from 1 m height (5 min).
3. Position your posts and secure two of them first (60 min).
4. Lift the roof frame into place (5 min).
5. Check all posts are vertical, then lock in the remaining two (50 min).
6. Secure the frame to the posts with the 8 retainers (5 min).
Notes
• If you create a slight fall, water will run off — but the shelter is not considered waterproof.
• Allow around 2½ hours for assembly.
• Shown here as a 4-post setup; can also be configured as 2 posts + wall/soffit brackets.
The result
A clean, modern outdoor space that feels like part of your home — perfect for dining, relaxing, and entertaining in style.
Whether freestanding or tucked beside the house, Kermit turns simple shade into architectural comfort.
