Build Instruction Videos

Want to see exactly how our yurts are pitched and what the final structure looks like, you can watch our brief Yurt Setup Demonstration Video. We provide detailed guidance on setting up a yurt. A video guide and free video calls on the day when you have any questions. However, if you do feel that this task is too much for you. Please get in touch, and we can quote you for the yurt pitching service. We are happy to help with the set-up if you need us. Most yurt customers would do it by themselves. It’s a great team-building exercise, very rewarding and saves you a lot of money. Please get in touch for the Assembly Guidance to double check if this is something that you could do it by yourselves.

Our videos cover each stage, from preparing the base and assembling the lattice and roof ring to fitting the cover, doors and windows, so you can see exactly what’s involved.

What you’ll learn

  • Choosing and preparing a suitable base
  • Assembling the frame: lattice, rafters and crown ring
  • Fitting covers, doors and windows
  • Weatherproofing, tensioning and finishing touches
  • Pro tips to save time and avoid common issues

Watch the video

We recommend watching the full instruction video before you start your build — it helps you visualise the sequence and plan your labour and tools. If you need extra help, our team is available for advice or professional installation.

The next video shows how we built a 4.2m diameter yurt on a circular decking with only three people from two different angles. We hope it helps you to build your own yurt.

Fancy check out our show yurt?

Ever wondered how a traditional Mongolian yurt is prepared for delivery?

In this behind-the-scenes short, it shows how we carefully pack, protect and load every part of a handcrafted yurt. From the solid wooden door and roof crown to the khana walls, roof poles, felt insulation and covers, ready for safe transport to our customers across the UK and Europe.

Each yurt is individually checked, organised and loaded with care to make installation easier and to ensure it arrives in perfect condition.

If you are considering a yurt and would like advice on size, specification or installation, please explore the rest of our website or contact us directly for guidance.
