6-Way Crown for West Coast Style Frame Tents Beyond Tent's technical team stocks this 6-way crown as a direct replacement fitting for rectangular West Coast style frame tents — the sizes that are longer than they are wide and need a pair of crowns along the ridge line instead of a single peak fitting. Each crown ties the end rafter tubing into the corner fittings on one side and the peak spreader running down the ridge on the other. Fits standard West Coast style frames from most major manufacturers. Why This Crown Matters On 20', 30', and 40'-wide rectangular frame tents, a single crown can't reach every rafter along a long ridge line, so the frame uses two 6-way crowns instead — one at each end of the ridge run, always installed in pairs. Each one is the point where the rafters, corner connections, and ridge spreader all have to line up, so a worn or bent crown here throws off alignment across the whole roofline, not just one section.

Connect the rafters on each end next, and save the final tightening on both crowns for after the full ridge line is square.
