I need a new Gazebo, something heavy duty for regular commercial use.
Either 3m×3m or 3m×4m or so..
Something like this

To use alongside our existing gazebos I have a few sets of these let strip lights which give off a warm white light and are dimmable etc..

These work well as they can be daisy-chained, run from a tool battery and are pretty rugged.
They are about 16mm wide, 10mm deep and 450mm long.
They have t-slots on the back.
I have 3d printed some clips that attach then to the current gazebo frame but most of the time they are just fixed up with velcro ties.
Now, what I would really like to do, is fit these permently into/onto the frame of the new gazebo with all the wiring in place.
So, I can arrive at an event, pop up the gazebo, plug in one power wire and turn them on.
They would be mounted around the top of the side panels pointing down/inwards. No need for any in the center of the roof.
So, my question, does anybody have or know of a particular brand/style of gazebo that would be suitable for that?
Maybe something that has channels in the frame? Or folds in such a way that there would be space for these to remain in place when folded?
Or any better ideas?
I have tried that flat adhesive led strip stuff before but (apart from the adhesive coming off) they tend to break on the bending sections..
Either 3m×3m or 3m×4m or so..
