GETTING STARTED
First o, allow us to say thank you for the investment you have made in our fine Arbor. This Arbor is designed to be assembled
and installed ideally by two people with basic carpentry knowledge and tools. Do not attempt alone, especially during the
installation stage. When assembling components, place on a non-abrasive surface (ie: shipping box) to avoid scratching. We
recommend a 15’ x 15’ area for unobstructed assembling. You should not need to use excessive force when assembling any
components.

Step 1 & 2
HOLE POSITION & PLACEMENT
Wood Stakes
Determine the area you want to start building your arbor. At one end
of the desired area, hammer one wooden stake into the ground, tie
a piece of string around it and measure to a length of 66” (167.6cm).
This is where your second wood stake needs to be hammered into
the ground. You have now set up your wood stakes and ready to
excavate your holes
String Line

With your wood stakes in position
aligned by the string and you
have determined the location of
where you want your posts to be,
excavate 10” (25.4cm) diameter x
36” (91.4cm) deep post holes.
After holes are dug and cleaned, place the
4x4 (10cmx10cm) wood post into the hole
ensuring it’s level and square to string lines.
The final post height should be 24” (61cm)
out of the ground. If a post is higher
because of obstructed excavation of
footings, please cut down the height
accordingly.
Fill the vacant hole with pre-
mixed concrete all the way to
within 3” (7.6
cm) of the top of the hole. Once
concrete has set, backfill and
compact the
3” (7.6 cm) space with soil.
36”
(91CM)
Post location and placement is the most critical step in the
overall installation process. Please double check for the
possibility of any underground utilities such as sprinkler,
gas or telephone lines. Make sure that your wood posts are
straight using a level.
