Do you have problems with the stays popping off? It looks like you are using guys as well to help. My brother has a similar setup, he put a cable tie on the top of each stay to prevent thishappening.

Hi John that a steel frame strong and reliable and has strut poles and it does not move so far not had any problems (but the guys you see i have put my awning skirt at the bottom of the windbreak there was a gap to stop the dogs getting out)

With our Jormax Vision system we do not need any stays as even in gale force winds it will stay upright with minimal flexing. Downside is hammering them into hard ground however using the drill and a masonery bit seems to have resolved that issue

This is the brother I was talking about, last week in Derbishire.
