Important Safety Notice!
Yardistry components are intended for privacy, decorative and ornamental use only.
Product is NOT INTENDED for the following:
• A safety barrier to prevent unsupervised access to pools, hot tubs, spas or ponds.
• As load bearing support for a building, structure, heavy objects or swings.
• Used in structures that trap wind, rain or snow that would create extra load on the
product.
Accumulated snow must be removed from roof.
DO NOT climb or walk on roof for any reason.
Permanent structures may require a building permit. As the purchaser and or installer of this
product you are advised to consult local planning, zoning and building inspection departments for
guidance on applicable building codes and/or zoning requirements.
Wood is NOT ame retardant and will burn. Grills, re pits and chimineas are a re hazard if
placed too close to a Yardistry structure. Consult user’s manual of the grill, re pit or chimnea for
safe distances from combustible materials.
Wear gloves to avoid injury from possible sharp edges of individual elements before assembly.
During installation, follow all safety warnings provided with your tools and use OHSA
approved safety glasses. Some structures may require two or more people to install safely.
Check for underground utilities before digging or driving stakes into the ground!
It is important during assembly to closely follow the instructions, complete the assembly
on a solid level surface and that you follow the instruction to square up, level and anchor the
structure, this will reduce the gap at wood connections during assembly.
General Information: Wood components are manufactured with Cedar (C. Lanceolata)
which is protected with factory applied water-based stain. Knots, small checks (cracks)
and weathering are naturally occurring and do not a󰀨ect the strength of the product.
Annual application of a water-based water repellent sealant or stain is important and will
help reduce weathering and checks.

Instructions for Proper Maintenance
Your Yardistry structure is designed and constructed of quality materials. As with all outdoor

it is important that you, the owner, properly maintain it.
Symbols:
Throughout these instructions symbols are provided in the top, right-hand corner of the page.
If you dispose of your Yardistry structure: Please disassemble and dispose of your
unit so that it does not create any unreasonable hazards at the time it is discarded. Be
sure to follow your local waste ordinances.
HARDWARE:
• Check metal parts for rust. If found, sand and repaint using a non-lead paint complying
with 16 CFR 1303.
• Inspect and tighten all hardware after completion of assembly; after rst month of use; and
then annually. Do not over-tighten as to cause crushing and splintering of wood.
• Check for sharp edges or protruding screw threads, add washers if required.
WOOD PARTS:
• Applying a water repellent or stain (water-based) on a yearly basis is important
maintenance to maintain maximum life and performance of the product.
• Check all wood members for deterioration, structural damage and splintering. Sand down
splinters and replace deteriorated wood members. As with all wood, some checking and
small cracks in grain is normal
• Some gapping may occur at some wood connections.
• Tape Measure

Following are some helpful tips to make the assembly process smooth and e󰀩cient.
PRE-ASSEMBLIES:
(i.e. Post and Beam Assemblies, Roof Rafter Assembly, etc)
• Work on a raised, solid and at surface such as, a table or saw horse.
• Keep all connections ush where shown in the instructions.
• When assembling the beams keep parts at, straight and snug when
connecting.
METAL PARTS:
• Roong material may have sharp edges, wear safety gloves.
• Remove all plastic covering, on both sides of the metal panels, directly
before installing each piece.
• Place roong material on a non-abrasive surface before and after assembly
as it can bend, dent and scratch easily.
• The roong screws can easily crush the roof panels and roof edges when
using a power drill. We recommend hand tightening the roong screws so
they sit snug and tight to the roong material.
Assembly Tips

Note: It is critically important you start with square, solid and level footings, concrete
pad or deck to attach your Pergola Room.
We supply Post Mounts with this structure which gives you the exibility to permanently install your structure
to a pre-existing or new wood or concrete surface.
• The hardware to attach the Post Mount to the structure is included.
• The hardware to mount the structure permanently will need to be purchased separately at your local
hardware store.
If you are mounting to concrete footers see below for the correct locations and placement. Please double
check for possibility of any underground utilities such as gas, telephone, cable or sprinkler lines.
Following are some examples of how to mount the structure to wood or concrete surfaces.
Refer to your local building and city codes, ordinances, neighbourhood covenants, or height restrictions
regarding this type of structure for guidance on acceptable installation requirements.

5/16” large washer) per mount so they connect to the T-Nuts. From the bottom attach with two #8 x 1-1/2” Wood
Screws and two #10 x 1-1/4” Pan Screws per mount. Tighten bolts.
C: Flush to the bottom of (696) 6 x 6 Post place one (422) Plinth on each side, attach with four #8 x 1-1/2” Wood
Screws per plinth. Rounded edges on top. (F2.1, F2.2 and F2.3)
D: Repeat Steps A - C ve more times to make six Post Assemblies.

(with 5/16” lock washer, 1/4-5/16” large washer and 5/16” t-nut) as shown in F3.1 and F3.2.
B: Connect one (1004) Beam Short End to each end of one (1005) Beam Short Centre using two 5/16 x 1-1/2”
Hex Bolts (with 5/16” lock washer, 1/4-5/16” large washer and 5/16” t-nut) per end as shown in F3.1 and F3.2.

Step 4: Long Beam Assembly
Part 1
A: Connect one (1199) Outer End to each end of one (1196) Beam using four 5/16 x 1-1/2” Hex Bolts (with 5/16”
lock washer, 1/4-5/16” large washer and 5/16” t-nut) as shown in F4.1 and F4.2. Notice orientation of angled
ends. This will create an Outer Beam Assembly.
B: On the short side of the Outer Beam Assembly place two Short Beam Inserts so they t over the holes in
(1196) Beam and (1199) Outer Ends. Attach Short Beam Inserts to Outer Beam Assembly with ten #7 x 3/4”
Wood Screws per insert, as shown in F4.3 and F4.4.
C: Repeat Steps A and B to make two Outer Beam Assemblies.
