• DO NOT climb or walk on the roof.
• Requires two or more people to assemble safely.
• Check for underground utilities before digging or driving stakes.
• Ensure at least 6ft (2m) clearance from any overhead electrical wires.
• Permanent structures may require a building permit. Consult local planning, zoning, and building inspection departments for applicable codes.
• Wood is NOT flame retardant and will burn. Grills, fire pits, and chimineas are a fire hazard if placed too close.
• Wear gloves to avoid injury during installation.
• Use safety glasses during installation.

About Our Wood

Backyard Discovery uses 100% Cedar (C. Lanceolata) wood. Wood is a product of nature and susceptible to weathering.

What causes weathering? Does it affect the strength of my product?

Weathering is primarily caused by water (moisture). Changes in moisture content can cause tension, leading to:

• Checking: Surface cracks along the grain. Larger posts experience more checking than thinner boards.
• Warping: Distortion (twisting, cupping) of the wood.
• Fading: Natural change in wood color to grey over time due to sunlight.

These changes generally do not affect the strength or safety of the product.

How can I reduce the amount of weathering to wood product?

• Apply a water-repellent or stain yearly. This is a requirement of your warranty.
• Inspect wood parts monthly and lightly sand any rough spots. Apply a sealant after sanding.

Assembly Tips & Hardware Identification

Protrusion Hazard

Incorrect: Exposed threads and bolt protruding beyond the T-Nut indicate over-tightening or incorrect hardware. Add washers to eliminate protrusion.

Correct: Ensure approximately 1/8" clearance.

Proper Hardware Assembly

• Bolt and T-Nut Assembly: Tap T-nut into the hole. Insert bolt through lock washer and into the T-nut. Turn clockwise. Do not completely tighten until instructed.
• Bolt and Barrel Nut Assembly: Insert barrel nut through lock washer. Insert bolt through second lock washer and into the barrel nut. Turn clockwise. Do not completely tighten until instructed.
• Lag Assembly: Use pre-drilled pilot holes. If none exist, use the factory drilled hole as a guide to drill a pilot hole into the adjoining board to prevent splitting. Only a lock washer is required for Lag Screws.

Sorting Wood

Arrange wood components by part number before assembly for faster identification and to check for missing or damaged parts.

Sorting Hardware

Sort hardware by the seven-digit alpha-numeric number on the bags or by hardware type (bolts, nuts, etc.).

Hardware Identification

Hardware bags are printed with a seven-digit alpha-numeric part number. During assembly, reference the last three digits of the part number as noted in each step.

Tools Required for Installation

The following tools are typically required:

• Phillips head screwdriver
• Hammer
• Measuring tape
• Level
• Ladder
• Socket wrench (various sizes)
• Open-ended wrench (various sizes)
• Drill with various bit sizes (e.g., 3/16", 1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 7/16")

Icons and their uses:

• Square Symbol: Ensure assembly is square before tightening bolts.
• Level Symbol: Ensure structure is level before proceeding.
• Two People Symbol: Some steps require an extra set of hands; ensure a helper is available.
• Wrench Symbol: Indicates the size of an open-ended wrench needed.
• Warning Symbol (Over-tightening): Warns against over-tightening bolts to prevent structural damage and wood splintering.

• Drill Symbol: Shows required drill attachments and bit sizes.

Basic Setup Dimensions & Assembly Notes

It is critically important to start with square and level footings, a concrete pad, or a deck to attach your structure. Pay close attention to items needed for each step and use the correct hardware. Using incorrect hardware may result in improper assembly. Double-check for underground utilities and overhead electrical lines.

Post mounts are provided for permanent installation to a pre-existing or new wood or concrete surface. Hardware for mounting to concrete is included. Hardware for mounting to a wood deck is NOT included and must be purchased separately. Ensure ample structural support under the deck before permanently attaching.
