Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The pergola is designed to be concreted into the ground for maximum stability. If you intend to use it as a freestanding structure, you must purchase the optional '8 x Braces to be added to Box Pergola'. After cutting posts to the desired length, use the supplied flat drill bit to create a hole in the center of the post's base. This hole is for locating the post onto bolt-down or spiked feet, which are also available as optional extras.
Compatibility: This pergola is designed for outdoor garden use. It is compatible with optional add-ons such as a 5-degree slope, cladding/pedestal panels, extended 3m posts, and various types of galvanized steel post holders (bolt down or spike). Please contact Rutland County Garden Furniture Ltd for details on these optional extras.
Care: As the pergola is made from pressure-treated Northern European Redwood, it is naturally resistant to rot and decay. To maintain its appearance, regular cleaning with a damp cloth is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals. Periodic re-staining or sealing can further protect the wood and prolong its life.
