Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, ensure you have appropriate heavy-duty screws or brackets compatible with your mounting surface (masonry wall or timber fence posts). Pre-drill pilot holes to prevent the timber from splitting during installation. For maintenance, treat the trellis with a high-quality exterior wood preservative or stain annually to prevent rot and moisture damage. If the trellis is in direct contact with soil, elevate the base slightly to prevent ground-level moisture absorption. Regularly inspect the joinery for any movement and tighten mountings as the seasons change to account for timber expansion and contraction.
