The Hughes Articulating Rapid Deployment Shelter.
This versatile HARD Shelter is light weight and easy to carry but designed for the heaviest duties. The sort of conditions professionals face every day.
HARD - ERS Emergency Response Response
HARD - MS Military Shelter
HARD - HRS Humanitarian Relief Shelter
HARD - GPS General Purpose Shelter
Operation
Whichever version you choose, the operation is the same.
The one-piece design means it is very quick and easy to erect. In fact, it can be erected by two people and be fully operational in just 3 minutes. With no separate components there's less to think about - and no bits and pieces to lose. Even the liner remains attached to the frame so when you fold the unit away after use it doesn't touch the ground. That means less cleaning and less risk of damage.
Size
A choice of 8 or 16 sq metres to suit standard floor panels, but if you need something special we can build to your dimensions. Alternatively, for more space, you can simply connect two or more shelters together using the zipped entry doors.
