The
Doors and Windows
All
door jambs and window jambs are made in our shop using the same ball and
socket joint as the staves used to make the walls. When you get to the
place where you want a door or window, you add that section and continue adding
staves until you complete the circle.
All our Yurts come with 2 doors and 2 windows. Windows are 3/16” clear
acrylic.
You can add additional doors and windows any time you want.

It
will hold the roof ring in place until you install the rafters. Secure
the rafters into the metal hangers on the ring 1 at a time.
If you purchased a kit from us all the
rafters (where they meet the wall) will be notched.
The
notch on each rafter will sit flat on the top of the wall. Secure this
into place by using metal hangers, L brackets, toe nails or screws.
One
at a time, install each rafter like the first rafter and secure them to
the roof ring and wall in much the same manner. Continue around the
circle until all the rafters are up and secured to the top of the barrel
walls.

Domed Skylight
The domed skylight is ¼” thick pure acrylic. Testing indicates that
pure acrylic outlasts other clear polymers, when exposed to the elements
for five years or more. The dome, including its flange and down-turned
edge, measures five-feet across and is 16-inches tall. It fastens in six
places to the compression ring with stainless steel expansion springs
and four straps for a weather-tight fit.
Options
Tinted Bronze Domes
- significantly reduce heat gain
Easy-Dome Lifter
- in warm climates, ventilation is the key to keeping your yurt cool.
With the addition of our Euro-Dome Lifter, you can easily raise the
leeward side of your dome to allow heat to escape. With a little breeze,
an open dome creates a chimney effect for enhanced ventilation. Although
any domed skylight can open, the Euro-Dome Lifter lets you raise and
lower the dome from floor level using a handheld winding brace.
Roof Sheeting
We supply you with a premier roof fabric made of industrial duty materials, & thermally welded seams for consistent watertight integrity. The valance, a foot-wide band attached to the bottom edge of the roof, covers the roof to wall space for a watertight seal. Should you NOT want our mildew proof vinyl coated polyester, you are ready to sheet the roof in and apply your own roofing materials.
Our standard roof material is an 18.5 oz vinyl coated polyester. This material also features a clear acrylic exterior coating to keep the material clean and add an extra layer of protection against ultra-violet rays and other harmful elements. Available in gray, white and tan.
Options
Duro-Last,
our premier roof fabric, is a .040 mil (37 oz.) polymer. This material
comes with a 15-year manufacturer’s warranty and is available in gray,
white and tan.
