If you\u2019re planning on mixing up your marquee stock rather than keep them as individual marquees then you need to think in terms of how many A-frames (and roofs) you\u2019re going to need for each job:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/diymarquees.co.uk\/6x12m-commercial-diy-marquee.php\">A 6x12m DIY Marquee<\/a>\u00a0uses 2 end A-frames and 5 middle A-frames<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/diymarquees.co.uk\/6x8m-commercial-diy-marquee.php\">A 6x8m DIY Marquee<\/a>\u00a0uses 2 end A-frames and 3 middle A-frames<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/diymarquees.co.uk\/6x6m-commercial-diy-marquee.php\">6x6m DIY Marquee<\/a>\u00a0uses 2 end A-frames and 2 middle A-frames<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So you can see why you would be short if you tried to make two 6x6m marquees from one 6x12m, or indeed trying to make one 6x12m marquee from two 6x6m\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my experience a good way to start a marquee hire business is to start with one 6x6m marquee, one 6x8m marquee and a 6x12m roof. You can see from the list above that a 6x6m and 6x8m will give you enough framework to create a 6x12m. This means you\u2019re covering three different sizes so three chances of getting a booking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember \u2013 if you buy one of our PVC roofs (6x12m say) like the example above but then find you\u2019re so busy you need a 6x6m, 6x8m and 6x12m all on the same weekend then we\u2019ll sell you the rest of the 6x12m marquee (frame and sides) at the same price as if you\u2019d bought them with the roof originally so you wouldn\u2019t be out of pocket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Spencer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>No. Well that was a short blog..
