Know before you buy
While it is optional for 20-foot structures, we highly recommend it if you live in an area prone to high winds or heavy snow. For any structure wider than 20 feet, this set is a mandatory requirement to ensure the structural integrity of your frame.
The set comes with everything needed for installation, including the ridge poles, hoop cross connectors, endwall cross connectors, and all the necessary nuts and bolts.
You should measure the total length of your hoop house and purchase enough 20-foot increments to cover the entire length of the parallel runs along your ridge pole.
This set is specifically designed for Monster Gardens hoop houses. While it may be adaptable to other systems, we cannot guarantee compatibility with third-party hardware or frame dimensions.
No specialized tools are required. Standard hand tools, such as wrenches or a socket set, are sufficient to secure the provided bolts and connectors to your existing frame.
