THE GRANGE FLOWER WALK PERGOLA IS MADE OF PRESSURE
TREATED AND FSC CERTIFIED TIMBER AND AS SUCH IS GUARANTEED
AGAINST ROT FOR A MINIMUM OF 15 YEARS. HOWEVER, IT MUST BE
REMEMBERED THAT AS A NATURAL PRODUCT, TIMBER IS SUBJECT TO
MOVEMENT AND WEATHERING AS IT SEASONS. IT IS NOT
UNCOMMON FOR SMALL SPLITS TO OCCUR WHEN DRYING AND
WARPING WHEN TIMBER IS ALLOWED TO DRY TOO RAPIDLY. THESE
WILL NORMALLY GO BACK WHEN HUMIDITY RISES. IT IS NATURE AT
WORK AND NOT CONSIDERED A FAULT.
ITS COLOUR WILL ALSO CHANGE WITH TIME. A RETREATMENT, AS
REQUIRED WITH A PROPRIETARY WOOD TREATMENT IS
RECOMMENDED.
CARE OF YOUR PERGOLA

BEFORE YOU START
•Please ensure that you check all the component parts for quantity and quality before you
commence building the product. Report any missing parts immediately. The manufacturer will
not accept any responsibility for damaged items once any part of the product has been fitted or
altered in any way.
•Timber is a natural material and will react to varying levels of moisture content - ie. will swell or
shrink. All of the Timber components are pressure treated green. However, should extra
protection be required, they should be treated using a wood preservative treatment, following the
maintenance instructions.
HEALTH AND SAFETY
Do not overstretch when working from the step ladder.
In order to reduce the risk of suffocation please keep all plastic bags and small parts away from children.
•When you are ready to start, make sure you have the right tools to hand, plenty of space and a
clean, dry area for assembly. It is advisable for two people to carry out the work.
PREPARATION
Make sure the area where the Flower Walk is to be positioned is clear and ready for building the structure.
Thank you for choosing this garden structure from Grange Fencing Ltd.

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS
PARTONE
To ensure a sound structure, it is
recommended that the sections which
form the Circle are assembled and glued
then allowed to set for 24 hours before
continuing.
STEP 1
Make sure you have a clean, flat dry
area, big enough to assemble a circle.
(see Pergola ‘footprint’ - right - for dimensions).
Remember - the circle, once
assembled will need to be left
undisturbed for 24 hours.
STEP 2
ASSEMBLING THE CIRCLE
Take two of the curved sections and
apply glue to one of the joint faces. Fix
the joint together and screw in place
using two screws (f).
STEP 3
Continue from one end of the assembly
with the next curved section repeating
step 2.
STEP 4
Fix three more curved beams in the
same manner.
STEP 5
Take one of the Feet (2) and fix to one
end of the circle assembly (as fig.2).
STEP 6
Repeat the procedure for the other end
of the circle assembly.
STEP 7
Repeat steps 2-6 for the two remaining
circles.
STEP 8
Lay the circles on top of one another
(as fig.3). Leave for 24 hours for the
glue to set fully.
PART TWO
STEP 9
Mark the hole positions for where the
metal rods will be fixed.
The position should be in the centre of
the joints except for the two joints for
the feet. These should be marked in the
centre of the beam 150mm from the end.
STEP 10
Now, using the 12mm drill bit make a
hole through all three circles at the
marked points. This is to ensure
correct alignment of the structure.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO ENSURE THAT THE
DRILL IS VERTICAL SO THAT THE HOLES
ARE DRILLED THROUGH SQUARELY
.
STEP 11
Place the assembled circles as close as
possible to their final positions
(see footprint at top of page).
