  • A Drill / Driver
  • Clamp / mole grip

Base Requirements

Your thatched spa gazebo is free standing and should be installed on a strong level surface. Suitable options are:

  • Level Patio or Concrete
  • Strong Decking

Ensure all 4 uprights are located on the chosen base.

Installing Timber Frame

1. Take one of the uprights and hold it vertically
2. Attach a balustrades with 3 large scews located through the pre drilled holes. The balustrade should be installed 100mm off the floor
3. Attach a second upright to the other end of the balustrade
4. Repeat the process for the second and third balustrade
5. At the point where the 3 ballustrades are attached to the 4 uprights ensure that the structure is square by checking the diagonal dimension
6. Fix the 4 x 100mm ring beams level with the tops of the uprights with three large screws at each joint.
7. Fit the 8 corner braces to the tops of the uprights ensuring that each post is upright prior to final fixing.

Installing Roof

1. Lay out the roof sections of roof on a flat surface.
2. Loosely assemble the whole roof frame with the bolts provided
3. Once the roof frame has been loosely assembled ensure that the lower edge of the frame is flush with the ground around the full circumference
4. Tighten the frame
5. Lift the frame onto the tops of the posts
6. The joints in the frame must be located over the post centres
7. Secure the roof using the galvanised hooks. These fit over the frame and should be fixed into the tops of the posts.
8. To fit them drill a deep hole with the 8mm drill bit and tap them in. Take care not to split the tops of the posts.
9. You can then proceed to thatch the roof
10. Each tile simply clips onto the metal frame
11. Start with the bottom row and work round a level at a time. You will need to cut some tiles to ensure they all fit. To cut the tiles put a Stanley knife through one side of the resin band, snap the top of the band, then cut the other side. Do not throw away any off cuts as they be need elsewhere.
12. Work up row by row towards the top
13. Place the top cone on last and secure with the wires on the inside
