Flexible and adjustable design

• Adjustable ridge height - the roof pitch and therefore the ridge height is variable. Ideally the roof pitch should be at least 10 degrees but if required it can be reduced by a few degrees or increased up to a maximum of 15 degrees. These are not absolute limits and assembly is possible with a slightly lower or higher roof pitch if required.
• Adjustable eaves height - the eaves height can be reduced by cutting the posts, which reduces the ridge height by the same amount.
• Adjustable post positions - the cantilevered design allows the posts to be moved away from the corners if required to avoid an obstruction.
• Adjustable eaves beam position - the main eaves support beam can be set back from the front if required to avoid an obstruction.
• The posts can be set in from each corner by between 300mm and 450mm to each side.
• The eaves beam can be set back from the front by between 200mm and 700mm.
• If you cut the posts to reduce the height you may 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 150mm (6"), 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.

DOWNPIPE KIT: A popular option is our downpipe kit, which connects onto the standard guttering outlets supplied with the gazebo. The kit includes grey PVCu downpipes for both ends of the guttering, along with multiple angled connectors, brackets and fixings. The downpipes can be cut to length, which enables the kit to be compatible with the adjustable position of the corner posts, but also to suit either supplying a waterbutt or leaving them full length so they drain to the ground.

GAZEBO JOINING KIT: This kit includes everything you need to neatly and securely connect two of these gazebos together. For example, you could connect a 10ft wide gazebo to a 12ft wide one to create a gazebo approximately 22ft wide. In addition to the aluminium trim running up the roof to cover the join where the two gazebos meet, the kit also has pieces for joining the gutters and the eaves beams, along with all required fixings. On gazebos with an 8ft projection, the cover trim will need cutting to length though the exposed edge will be concealed by the gazebo's gutter once it is in place. The aluminium cover trim is powder coated the same colour as the main glazing bars of the gazebo to ensure a smart appearance.

SHEET END CLOSURES: These C profile end closures help stiffen the roof sheets, which can add to the durability of the sheets at more exposed sites by minimising the amount the sheets can flex in the wind. As an added benefit, capping the sheets also helps keep them cleaner by reducing the amount of dirt and grit, etc, which can get into the flutes in the polycarbonate.

WPC COMPOSITE DECKING KITS: This superb quality WPC wood plastic composite decking closely resembles real wood, with the same look and feel. However, it is virtually maintenance free and it will never rot. At a glance it is difficult to tell the difference between this composite material and real timber decking with a stained finish. Furthermore, the similarities are not skin deep like a thin veneer. The realistic finish has a fibrous surface which looks similar to the grain of real wood. This synthetic composite is also heavier and stronger than real wood. The strength, durability and lack of maintenance make this superb decking a popular choice with pensioners and discerning commercial buyers such as care homes. Occasional cleaning with soapy water normally restores the original appearance. If any dirt or stains become ingrained after prolonged neglect even the most stubborn marks can be cleaned with a pressure washer.

Our WPC composite decking is a revolutionary material which provides all the benefits of real wood without the maintenance. It can be left outside uncovered all year round. Unlike real wood this synthetic wood is a weatherproof material with no knots, splinters, machining marks or other imperfections. It will never develop splits or shakes and no sap will ever ooze out of it. Our wood plastic composite is an equal mixture of real wood and recycled plastic. Even the wood is a mixture of sawdust and unusable offcuts, so it is the ultimate environmentally friendly alternative to wood. The colour pigments are mixed in before the powdered composite is moulded into shape, so the colour runs all the way through the finished product. The boards are completely impervious to water. The boards can be sawn, drilled and screwed, just like real wood. You can fix it with standard woodscrews. Being heavier and denser than real wood, screw fixings are actually stronger in composite boards.
