7 Feet Garden Wooden High Arbor Arch Plant Pergola

My wife has always wanted a wooden Arbor. I was very happy to find this one. It came very nicely package and well secured. All the hardware is included and the only tools you will need is a Power drill with a Phillips attachment. You will also need an open ended wrench or socket wrench or Allen wrench to attach the included nuts and bolts that secure the top. All the necessary holes are pre-drilled and some are counter sunk as well for you. All the pieces went nicely together. The manual is simple, no words, just pictures to help with putting it together. And thats really all you need. I also bought two 4x4 AC2 4 x 4, 8 foot post that are Ground Contact Green Pressure Treated and cut them into 4 foot posts. I then burred them approximately 3 feet into the ground. I drilled two holes through each of the 4 posts and also into the Arbor and bolted the arbor onto the posts. I did this for stability and to keep the wood of the Arbor above ground to prevent rot. I want my wife to get many years of enjoyment out of this so I plan on treating the Arbor to make it even more weatherproof. My wife will be planting Clematis around it, I think it’s going to look absolutely gorgeous.

Looks great. I'd recommend 2 people to put it together and we installed metal stakes to the sides so that the wood legs would not need to go in the ground to stabilize it.

After assembling this wood arbor we were able to place it in our garden and take over a spot where our previous arbor had fallen apart. It is a large wooden trellis arbor that supports our vines and looks wonderful in our landscape.

Love the arch, but could have been priced lower! The wood and design is beautiful and as described.

Easy to assemble and looks great. I used plastic bags and zip ties to cover the feet before placing in the ground, hoping it will prevent it from rotting. I also will be putting a clear coat of finish on it to help it last longer outdoors.
