Temporary Arbor Installation
Arbors must be well secured to prevent tipping over from wind load etc.
We have provided four ground stakes for securing the arbor.
If you are installing your arbor on concrete or a wood deck, visit your
hardware store to purchase the appropriate galvanized bracketing
hardware.

14 in.

Fasten all four ground stakes to the base of the posts using
the provided 1 1/4” screws (2 screws per anchor) as shown aside.
For a temporary arbor installation, carefully lift the arbor and
place into final location. Ensure the arbor opening is set
at 42” and that the arbor is plumb and level.
For a permanent installation, measure and dig four-8” holes, 14“
deep where the ground stakes will be located. The centers of the
holes should be a rectangular pattern with dimensions of
44 1/2” x 22”.
Fill excavated holes with mixed concrete and carefully lift arbor
into place. Plumb and level the arbor.
Note: The posts should not be set in the concrete.
