The Arbor Garden Solutions Wooden Pergola Kit is designed for homeowners and garden enthusiasts looking to create a defined, aesthetic outdoor living space. Providing a robust 3m x 4.2m footprint, this four-post wooden structure serves as an ideal foundation for shaded seating areas, climbing vines, or atmospheric lighting. While it offers significant versatility and structural durability, users should note that the assembly process requires at least two people and basic manual labor to ensure stability and level placement.

Yes, but you will need to install concrete footings or post anchors to ensure the structure remains level and stable over time.
We strongly recommend at least two adults for assembly due to the weight and length of the timber components.
The kit features a light green finish, which typically indicates a pressure-treatment process intended to provide resistance against moisture and fungal decay.
This pergola is designed as a decorative and structural garden feature; it is not rated for heavy hanging loads like swings or hammocks.
You will need a drill/driver, a spirit level, a measuring tape, and a ladder. Having a rubber mallet is also helpful for aligning joints.
Verify that all ground-level connections are tightened and ensure the posts are on a perfectly level surface. Use additional bracing if the soil is soft.
Clean the affected area with mild soapy water, allow it to dry completely, and apply a fresh coat of suitable outdoor wood sealant or protective stain.
Installation requires a level surface, such as a concrete patio or a compacted gravel base. We recommend using a spirit level to ensure all four posts are perfectly vertical before securing the rafters. To maintain the wood's integrity and the light green finish, apply a wood preservative or exterior stain every 1-2 years depending on your local climate. Ensure that all hardware is checked for tightness annually, especially after seasonal temperature shifts.
