FAQs
Does the kit include anchoring hardware?
The kit includes the main structural components. Depending on your surface (concrete or soil), you may need to purchase additional ground anchors or bolt-down plates separately.
Can I paint this pergola a different color?
Yes, once the wood has been cleaned and dried, you can apply an exterior-grade paint or wood stain to customize the color to your preference.
Is the wood pressure-treated?
The wood is selected for outdoor durability; however, we recommend applying a secondary treatment or sealant to maximize its lifespan in harsh weather.
How many people are needed for assembly?
We strongly recommend at least two people to assemble the unit safely, as the components are large and heavy.
Can this be installed on grass?
It is possible to install on grass, but we recommend using concrete pads or metal spikes to ensure the wooden posts stay dry and level.
Troubleshooting
Structure feels unstable or wobbly
Ensure all fixings are fully tightened and check that the ground surface is perfectly level. You may need to add shims or adjust the base mounting points.
Wood showing signs of moisture damage
Clear away any debris or soil build-up around the base of the posts and apply a fresh coat of high-quality exterior wood preservative.
Difficulty aligning crossbeams
Use a clamp to hold beams in position while installing fasteners, and ensure you are working on a strictly level foundation to keep pieces square.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To begin installation, ensure you have a flat, level surface. The assembly process is best handled by two people to manage the weight of the uprights and crossbeams. Use a spirit level throughout the build to ensure the structure remains square. For maintenance, it is recommended to apply a wood preservative or exterior-grade wood stain every 1-2 years, depending on your local climate, to protect the timber from moisture and UV damage. Always check that all bolts and fixings remain tight after the first month of use, as the wood may settle slightly after installation.
