Dual A-frame Doors

With twin A-frame doors on opposite sides of the tent, the 500 Double Door Pro is our largest and most accessible Sibley yet! The double doors are ideal for unobstructed views in two directions. The second door allows larger groups or families to enter or exit the tent from either side without disturbing the other half. 

The Sibley’s signature A-frame door allows for easy entry and exit, and holds the canvas at 90 degrees from the ground preventing rain from falling into the tent when moving in and out. The floor is equipped with four stirrups which hold the poles of the doors securely in place. The top of the A-frame doors are equipped with a pin that sits in a grommet at the peak of the door ensuring proper placement. A rain cap is then placed over the pin and grommet to keep rain from running down the poles. The canvas door zips together vertically and along the bathtub floor. Each side of the door is equipped with loops and ropes to neatly tie back the canvas and/or mesh doors to hold them open when not in use. 

Every Sibley is compatible with a Sibley Connector, a bow-tie shaped attachment that can be used as an awning. A Sibley Connector can also be used as a covered bridge between one of the Double Doors and a second bell tent, allowing you to create a multiple room tent.

360 mesh wall bell tent

Mesh Walls: 360° ProTechtion

Traditional camp pests like bugs and critters are posing a greater threat campers with the increasing prevalence of vector borne illness like Zika, West Nile, and plague. Our ProTech series includes a mesh wall that zips on to the groundsheet and canopy, allowing you to roll up the canvas walls for maximum ventilation while keeping your tent sealed against pests. The mesh walls connect to the mesh door with extra sticky Velcro for a secure seal, offering a full 360° of mesh. When not in use the mesh wall can be rolled up and stowed neatly with the built in hook and loop system on the inside of the canopy, or they can zipped out removed completely. Mesh walls are also known as a double wall in the bell tent industry.

Roll Up Side Walls and Zipper Groundsheet: Pro Grade

Our ProTech groundsheets attach to the tent with a zipper and are made of are thick, thermally welded, rip-stop PVC (650 gr/m² or 19.17 oz/yd²). Completely water and vapor impenetrable, the ‘bathtub style’ floor rises 4 inches high to keep you dry even in standing water. Using a heavy duty size 10 zipper to attach the sidewall to the groundsheet, you can unzip the floor to roll up the canvas walls for maximum ventilation, or remove the groundsheet entirely for transport, storage, cleaning, or to enjoy the grass or sand beneath your feet. A tail gate style system of secure hooks and loops allows you to drop the bathtub wall near the door and peg it flat to prevent tripping and facilitate easy cleaning. A small gap between the two zippers in the back allows an electrical cord to enter the tent without compromising protection from rain and bugs.

4 season cotton canvas bell tent

Pro Canvas

Pro Canvas (360 gr/m² or 10.62 oz/yd²) is the best canvas for premium bell tents; but it’s not all about the weight. Our proprietary Pro treatment adds additional waterproofing to the natural water resistance of canvas, along with mold and UV resistance. Pro canvas is designed for long term use and wide range climates. A balance of breathability, waterproofing, and durability; Pro canvas is ideal for camping comfortably in all 4 seasons. Repairable and retreatable, a properly maintained Pro can last for years. Double stitched, flat-felled roof and side wall seams, seam gussets, and double-layer construction at all stress points create a bell tent that is as durable as it is beautiful.

100% Cotton canvas provides a natural waterproofing and breathability. Cotton fibers swell when damp, the tight weave prevents rain from penetrating and the surface tension of moisture drops on the outside combined with the steep angle of the canopy allows water to bead and run off. Moisture held in the air on the inside is still able to escape directly through the fabric, keeping internal humidity low and mitigating condensation.

canvas tent stove compatibility

Stove Compatibility

All CanvasCamp tents are easily adaptable for use with a wood burning tent stove. Proper stove placement is dependent on stove size, tent size, flu exit style, desired temperature, and the environment you intend to camp in. One size fits all, pre-installed stove jacks fail to provide customers with the level of customization necessary to achieve ideal stove placement and maximum utility. To ensure proper placement and ideal efficiency, CanvasCamp offers modular stove jacks (sold separately) that can be easily installed in any cotton canvas bell tent in just a few minutes. Stove jacks are available in a variety of shapes and sizes so you can choose the jack that fits your tent and stove perfectly.
