Summary:

This low maintenance lean to aluminium gazebo is available 10'x12' and 10'x15' (3.0x3.6m and 3.0x4.5m). Standard features include a strong and durable powder coated aluminium frame with a tinted twinwall polycarbonate roof canopy. The 10'x15' gazebo includes 3 posts. The 10'x12' gazebo includes 2 posts. The internal height at the lowest point is approximately 6'11" (2100mm). Base plates with pre-drilled holes are included to ensure easy fixing into any hard surface. Polycarbonate is increasingly popular as a gazebo roof due to the combination of durability, good light transmission and reduced glare. It is stronger than a canvas canopy and provides good protection for garden furniture. This versatile gazebo is also suitable as a hot tub cover or a smoking shelter. Instructions are supplied for DIY self assembly.

  • All components required for assembly are supplied cut to length and pre-drilled
  • Ridge and eaves components are too long to be supplied in one piece so two lengths are supplied with offset joins required to preserve structural integrity
  • External ridge height approximately 8'8" (2650mm) at around 10 degrees roof pitch with standard posts
  • Internal height approximately 6'11" (2100mm) to underside of eaves beam

Adjustable height

  • The roof is designed to suit a roof pitch of 10 degrees although this can be increased or decreased by 1 or 2 degrees.
  • Whenever possible we recommend the standard 10 degrees roof pitch.
  • If the roof pitch is increased or decreased by 1 or 2 degrees this may cause gaps of 1 or 2 millimetres between the glazing bars and the ridge or eaves beams.
  • The eaves height can be reduced by cutting the posts, which reduces the ridge height by the same amount.
  • If you cut the posts to reduce the height you will need to drill new holes in order to attach the base plates.
  • In normal circumstances we do not advise cutting the posts by more than 250mm (10"), which reduces the clearance below the eaves beam to around 1850mm (6'1").

POWDER COATED ALUMINIUM: Extruded hollow section aluminium profiles are cut to size and drilled or welded to form a lightweight and strong frame. Aluminium is ideal for outside use because it does not corrode like steel. The aluminium is powder coated, a tough paint finish which has excellent weathering properties.

TWIN WALL POLYCARBONATE: Twin wall polycarbonate is virtually unbreakable and very practical. Polycarbonate is safe with small children or pets around and easy to handle during installation. Tinted polycarbonate reduces glare by diffusing light in the same way as sunglasses.

LEAN TO GAZEBOS: In essence a lean to gazebo is just a large roof canopy with open sides so it provides a shady seating area immediately outside the house plus a great storage area for things which need to be kept dry. A lean to gazebo is similar to a conservatory but one step closer to the garden. Increasingly lean to gazebos are used as an inexpensive and handy general storage area for a multitude of other things including barbecues, garden furniture, cushions, wellies and a host of other sundries. With open sides the access is convenient but a gazebo is not as secure as a shed or garage. You should consider security before deciding which items to store in your gazebo.

SEALING A LEAN TO GAZEBO AGAINST THE WALL: Although it is not essential, for best results a lean to gazebo should be sealed against the host wall. There are various ways of doing this depending on the wall surface. The easiest way is a simple silicone seal but this will require the most maintenance. Adhesive flashing is a more permanent solution but it will also require occasional maintenance. The best seal is lead flashing dressed into the existing mortar, which requires little or no maintenance. However, it is the most expensive option and normally requires a plumber. With no seal at all, a lean to gazebo still provides a waterproof canopy and although the walls may be damp on occasion this may not be a problem. Lean to gazebos are normally supplied with no flashing or sealant included due to the various different options available to suit different sites and individual requirements.

SIZES - DEPTH AND WIDTH: Sizes are sometimes rounded to the nearest nominal size for ease of reading but the correct external sizes are listed alongside the price. The first dimension listed is the projection and the second dimension is the width. The projection is measured from the existing building. All sizes are approximate.
