Hi,
Does anyone know whether you can put a side porch on both sides of a Gelert Horizon 8. I have one and am tempted to get another one for the other side of the tent to use for storage and bikes.
Thanks in advance for any responses

I'm guessing not. I have the hi gear zenobia which is the same as the horizon 6 and the porch attachs by having straps that go all the way over and peg into the ground on the other side. It depends how much space there is between the 2 doors.
Hii
i dont see why not there would be a slight over lap on the bit that goes over the top... but could work!! the only thing i can think as a neg is the size!!
Does a Gelert Horizon 8 look like a Kyham Ontario 8?
If it does, then it should be possible.
We have used a Kyham sun porch on both sides of our Ontario 8. It is a bit fiddly trying to sort out the overlap on the roof, and definately takes a lot longer than putting up the tent itself....but it is worth it for the extra space. We used one sun porch as the kitchen area, and the other for coats, boots etc.

I have a Gelert Meridian 6 so the same layout and think you should be able do it - as said above the will be a bit of overlap but as you only wanting to use for storage it won't matter if you have guy ropes slightly in the way
The only problem you might find is where the straps come down the other side - we found when we had a Gelert Horizon 8 that when we had the porch on, the straps went partially over the zip on the other side opposite to where the porch was meaning we struggled to open and close that door....you may be able to position the straps so they were more to the side though?
How about an end porch instead? They do them for the 2012 version, I can't see why they wouldn't fit the earlier models?
