Positioning windows in your marquee

A high-quality marquee with interchangeable side panels offers your customers the flexibility to choose where the windows are placed when the marquee is set up.

However, this flexibility can also be a challenge. Your customer’s preference for window placement may differ from your own suggestions. It’s important to engage in a diplomatic discussion with them. Ultimately, they should have the final say, though you can offer recommendations and explain the reasoning behind them.

Generally, windows should be oriented towards the best view. Any sides facing barriers like walls or fences should be covered with solid panels. While some customers may prefer windows facing the sun, which can result in glare, it’s usually manageable and not a major issue.

For the most aesthetically pleasing appearance, windows should be arranged symmetrically. For example, if a marquee side has six panels and your customer wants four windows, place the four windows in the center with walls on either side. Symmetry is crucial for the exterior appearance of the marquee, although it’s less critical from the inside, especially if partitions are involved.

Finally, placing some windows near the entrance enhances the marquee’s inviting atmosphere, regardless of the view.
