Double Zipper End Wall

I really like this end wall. It was easy to install and works really well.

Love the end wall and ability to get a lot of air flow in the hot spring and summer.. would definitely recommend to purchase.
My one upgrade to this would be if the edges near the zipper were sown. As they get used the edges fray and get stuck in the zipper. Otherwise it has been incredibly durable, withstanding a small tornado and our winter winds of 40-60 here in the UP of Michigan.
Thank you Farmers Friend for supplying a great product and even better customer service!

Love the double zipper door - opens up the tunnel to get equipment into the tunnel. The sides are held in place with stakes and can be folded back to get into the side beds with BCS when prepping the beds in the spring. Will get again when I buy another tunnel

should have done in the beginning

I really like how simple this door is, and how I can leave them open in the hottest part of summer with great airflow through the tunnel. They were also a breeze to install, and are wide enough to roll my Vermont cart through.

However the woven fabric naturally frays and gets caught in the zipper constantly. Incredibly frustrating. The zippers are single stitched and the stitches will inevitable begin to let go of the woven fabric, with no room for repairs. A blown zipper on one door and not the other in a wind storm is a recipe for disaster.

This past summer was my third season with these doors and the deterioration on the south-facing one has been rapid, and is now in shreds. It will need to be replaced for next season.

Given the short lifespan and disposable (non-repairable) nature of the product, it is a pretty expensive investment, but it does have certain advantages within its practical lifespan. I'm just not sure its worth it.

For over $300 I would think it would come with at least the brackets and plastic. If fine with not having the lumber for that cost but you can not get those brackets anywhere. $30 worth of brackets would have made a big difference. The zippers have a hard time opening and closing a lot. We avoid using them, I had to trim a little of the plastic around the zipper portion so they wouldn’t jam but still have issues. To me not worth the money but kind of a rock and a hard spot you need an end wall. The videos I watch where they said all kits come with everything you need made me think the end wall would at least have brackets. That is one of the reasons I bought this High tunnel and not the local one which I was planning on. Next one I order will probably be the local company. Farmers friend has great high tunnel but had some issues with short on small parts of the tunnel.

Had a failing zipper on a single zipper end wall. Farmer's said they would replace the complete end even though I wasn't asking them to. Since I had a double zipper on the other end I asked if I could upgrade. No problem they said. Shipped it out very fast with a minimal upgrade charge. Excellent service!

The zipper doors wear down quickly and become difficult to open/close. The thread across the flap of the zipper track comes undone and bits get stuck in the zipper.
