Installation Guide

Laying out your Footprint
To determine the proper placement of your
5 3/8” x 5 3/8” Posts, see the exploded view
on Page 2 to find the measurements and to
determine their correct positions. Outside
Post to Post measurements are 101” x101”.
Inside Post to Post measurements are
90” x 90”.
Take diagonal measurements to check your
layout for square.
We recommend that you fix Posts to ground
using Steel Post Bases or Saddle Brackets
fixed on cement footing. If attaching Posts to
pre-existing deck, we recommend that you
purchase Post / Deck Mounting Brackets. In
both cases, Post Mounting hardware can be
found at most Hardware Stores.

Important - Western Red Cedar Lumber and
Timbers will have surface splitting that occurs
as lumber seasons and drys to the moisture
content in your area. Splitting or “checking”, as
it is referred to, can be 1/8” to 1/4” wide and can
run several feet. This does not diminish the
structural integrity of the material in any way.
