Six posts, not one more
A six-sided base introduces a stronger symmetry than a circular footprint: each face can line up with a garden axis, a path or a hedge, which is why a hexagonal gazebo is often chosen to extend an existing view rather than to blend into it. A regular hexagon is the most common shape for this kind of structure — six load-bearing posts, six identical roof panels, and a load distribution ironworkers know well. An eight-sided (octagonal) plan is also available on request, but involves more joints and a longer build time; the hexagon strikes the best balance between visual presence and build complexity.
- Naturally pyramidal roofThe six panels converge to a central point, a geometry that sheds water efficiently without any complex pitch to calculate.
- Solid wind resistanceThe six posts spread wind load across regular 60° angles, a structural behaviour the partner workshop knows well.
- A strong visual anchorA hexagonal silhouette stands out clearly in a garden, useful for marking a viewpoint or closing off a sightline.
Diameter and capacity, worked out the same way as the round model
The sizing logic is the same as for a round gazebo: the diameter (measured here from one side to the opposite one) sets the seated capacity and ground footprint. The dimensions and diameters page gives the reference chart, valid for both shapes — only the post layout changes, not the sizing logic.
Roofing: the detail that changes the finished look the most
A bare hexagonal frame, with no roof, is still an elegant structure but not very usable in bad weather. The six-panel pyramidal roof can take zinc, slate, glass or stretched fabric — each material noticeably changes both the look and the price, covered on the dedicated roofing page. This is often where the difference between materials shows most clearly, since the regular geometry of the panels highlights the roofing joints.
Installation and anchoring
Each hexagonal post gets its own anchoring point, sized for the wind load calculated across the whole structure — the six fixing points work together, not in isolation. The installation and anchoring page covers the methods for your ground type, whether that's an existing slab or open soil.

Frequently asked questions
Can a hexagonal gazebo be oriented along a specific garden axis?
Yes — unlike a round shape, the orientation of the six panels is chosen at the quote stage, letting you line up a face with a path or a specific opening.
Is the diameter measured the same way as on a round gazebo?
The principle is similar (distance between two opposite sides), but actual capacity differs slightly at the same nominal diameter because of the angles — the workshop confirms the exact match at the quote stage.
Can I get an octagonal gazebo instead of a hexagonal one?
Yes, on request — the same principle applies with two extra posts, for a slightly longer build time and a shape closer still to a circle.
