TidyTent XTRA modular zip-together storage tent system

TidyTent Xtra – a new dimension to outdoor storage

All-new TidyTent XTRA brings a new dimension to outdoor storage. This is the modular, zip-together, extendable version of the Tidy Tent. Note: in the USA the product is also known as the TidyTent Ultra. Note: in order to demonstrate how the TidyTent XTRA is modular, many of the images here show two units zipped together – please be aware, however, the price advertised is for one unit only.

As a modular system, and with a storage capacity of over 2 cubic meters per unit, TidyTent can be considered a cost-effective and practical alternative to the conventional wooden shed! Unlike a shed, you can carry one home under your arm, and assemble and install it in minutes without the cost and hassle of having to put down a concrete base!

Is a single TidyTent (Bike Cave / Campa Cave) not big enough for your needs? No problem. With the TidyTent XTRA, you can extend your storage space to suit your needs.

• Modular – two or more units may be zipped together to extend your storage space
• Made from a tough, tear-resistant, hard-wearing, durable, woven plastic
• Each unit fits 2-3 adult-sized bicycles
• Perfect for storing bikes, mobility scooters, BBQ grills, children’s toys, lawnmowers, garden tools, scooters, sports gear, pool equipment, and holiday equipment…
• Detachable front & rear panels for quick and easy access
• Attaches to wall, fence, or freestanding with guy ropes
• Rear access flap to fit optional “Anka Point” steel security bracket to prevent theft of your bikes
• New replaceable roof hood for additional protection from rain and sun
• Supplied in a handy carry bag

TidyTent XTRA – how does it work?

The standard TidyTent (also known as Bike Cave or CampaCave) only has a detachable zipped door panel at the front. Whereas the TidyTent XTRA has not only a front door panel but also boasts a completely detachable rear door panel. Just remove the front door of one TidyTent and the rear door of your new TidyTent XTRA and zip the two TidyTents together! Create a double, a triple, or even a quadruple. Create your very own “TidyTunnel” – as long as you need!

Just like the standard, single-door TidyTent, the TidyTent XTRA incorporates triple weather-sealed zip door panels for greater convenience and longevity.

In some older models, you may find an additional pair of vertical fibreglass poles. These are optional and designed to fit vertically under the two main arched poles to afford additional strength and support in the event of snow.

TidyTent XTRA will attach to the front of your existing standard TidyTent to extend and increase its capacity.

For even more storage, why not consider the new XtendaHood extension hood, a zip-detachable hood to expand your TidyTent XTRA to the front or rear? To learn more, click here!

Specification

Thousands of happy customers attest to Tidy Tent XTRA being a great low-cost and versatile solution to the problem of outdoor storage.

Made from a tough, hardwearing, and durable PE polyethylene fabric, the design includes a protective flap over the zips to limit water ingress. Every attempt is made to ensure they are as watertight as possible but there is no absolute guarantee that they are 100% waterproof. Like any tent, depending on the extent of inclement weather, a small amount of rainwater ingress or condensation can occur.

Providing it’s correctly installed though, you should find it’s very waterproof. Check out the following video showing its waterproofness being put to the test!

The mesh roof ventilation panels are designed to improve airflow and reduce condensation.

TidyTent XTRA – use within reason

There is a limit to the weight that the fibreglass rods can withstand and the product really should not be used in snow. It is certainly not designed to withstand heavy snowfall. In our tests, it was seen to withstand up to the equivalent of 32 kg of freshly fallen snow. If you do use it in the snow then you must clear the snow off regularly to prevent snow build-up. Damage caused to the product as a result of use in snow will not be covered by warranty.

Please note that over time the fabric may fade and degrade in sunlight.  The newest model is now supplied with a replaceable roof hood. This extends the longevity of the product by improving not only waterproofness but also UV protection. When eventually the fabric starts to degrade, rather than having to replace the whole cover, you can now simply purchase a new roof hood!

You must maintain your TidyTent Xtra by regularly spraying or coating the fabric with a proprietary waterproofing and UV protection tent spray. We strongly recommend Nikwax Tent & Gear Solarproof/Waterproofer. One spray can double the effective life of the fabric and make it more durable. Click here for more details.

How to attach and detach the door panels

The door panels of the Tidy Tent XTRA are attached not with a single zip but with three separate zips, two going halfway around from each side and a third zip horizontally across the bottom. Note that the zips are configured such that one of the zips has the slider attached to the body of the tent and the other has the slider attached to the door panel.

The zips on the front aperture are configured in the opposite way to the zips on the rear aperture. In this way, you can detach the front door panel of one unit and the rear door panel of another unit and zip the two units together. You can zip two, three, or more units to extend the size of your TidyTent to suit your needs.
