Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires basic woodworking tools and appropriate fixings. Ensure that the existing fence post or top rail is structurally sound before attempting to mount the trellis topper. It is recommended to use weather-resistant screws or bolts to prevent rusting which could stain the timber.
For care, while the pressure treatment protects against decay, applying a high-quality timber preservative or exterior wood stain every two to three years will keep the brown finish vibrant and provide an extra layer of moisture protection. During the initial installation, ensure the trellis is leveled correctly to maintain the symmetry of the concave top.
