Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe clean with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Maintenance: While pressure-treated for rot resistance, periodic re-application of a suitable wood preservative or sealant is recommended, especially on exposed end grains, to maximize the 20-year rot-free lifespan.
  • Placement: Position on a level surface. Consider placing it on paving slabs or a dedicated base to prevent direct contact with wet soil, which can accelerate wear.
