FAQs
Can these brackets be used on soft ground?
No, these brackets are designed for solid, flat surfaces like concrete, wood, or composite decking where direct mounting is possible. They are not suitable for soft ground or areas requiring in-ground posts.
What size wooden beams do these brackets fit?
These specific 121x121mm brackets are designed to accommodate wooden beams up to 121x121mm in size.
Do I need to dig holes for installation?
No, a key benefit of these floor brackets is that they allow you to build a strong structure without the need for digging holes or ground anchoring.
What type of screws or bolts should I use to mount them?
The required fasteners depend on your mounting surface. For concrete, use concrete anchors and screws; for wood, use appropriate wood screws. These fasteners are typically not included with the brackets.
Are these brackets suitable for all weather conditions?
Yes, they are made from heavy-duty steel with an anthracite powder coating, designed to resist rust, corrosion, and extreme temperatures for durability in outdoor conditions.
How many brackets are included in this pack?
This pack contains 12 Gezu Impex Pergola Floor Brackets in Anthracite Grey, sized for 121x121mm beams.
Can I paint over the anthracite coating if I want a different color?
While possible, painting over the powder coating might affect its durability and warranty. If you choose to paint, ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared, and use a paint suitable for metal.
Troubleshooting
Bracket feels loose after installation.
Ensure the mounting surface is solid and level. Verify that all screws/bolts used to attach the bracket to the surface are tightened securely. Check that the wooden beam is also firmly fastened within the bracket.
Difficulty inserting wooden beam.
Ensure the beam is the correct size for the bracket (max 121x121mm). Check for any debris inside the bracket's angled slot. Minor adjustments to the beam's angle might be needed during insertion.
Signs of rust or corrosion.
While designed to be weather-resistant, prolonged exposure to harsh conditions can cause minor surface rust. Clean the affected area gently and consider applying a suitable metal protectant or touch-up paint in the anthracite colour if available.
Wobbling structure after assembly.
Check that all brackets are securely fastened to the ground and that the beams are tightly secured within each bracket. Ensure the ground surface itself is stable and not compromised.
