Footing into the Ground

Arbor must be well secured to prevent tipping over from wind or

other loads. Two 4 x 4" Ground Post Anchors have been provided

for securing the arbor either into the ground or a concrete footing. In

some cases it maybe acceptable to secure the arbor to an existing

structure such as a fence post. If installing your arbor on concrete

or a deck, visit your hardware store for the appropriate galvanized

bracketing hardware.

Insert the (4x4¨) 2 Ground Post Anchors into the bottom of

the arbor post and secure with screws through the

predrilled holes. (Figure 4.1)



Move the arbor to its ﬁnal location (2 people will be

needed). Set the Arbor and mark the positions of the posts,

then move the arbor aside and lay it carefully on it’s side.



Dig two holes approximately 6 x 18" deep. Move the arbor

back into position and level it both vertically and

horizontally. The bottom of the vinyl posts should insert

themselves approximately 4" below the ground level.
