Troubleshooting
Pergola posts are not stable.
Ensure posts are set a minimum of 400mm into the ground and have been fully secured with concrete. Check that the concrete has cured properly before proceeding with assembly.
Panel slats do not fit correctly.
Verify that the slats are oriented correctly and that the frame is square. Minor adjustments to spacing may be needed before final fastening.
Fixings appear to be rusting.
The fixings are corrosion-treated, but prolonged exposure may eventually lead to surface rust. Ensure they are not excessively wet and consider applying a protective coating if this becomes a concern.
Wood shows signs of weathering.
This is normal for outdoor timber. To restore appearance and protection, clean the wood and reapply a suitable wood preservative or stain.
