Installing gazebos on wood and concrete surfaces becomes very easy if you have the right equipment at hand, such as drills, bolts, or rods.🌟
1. Using bolts
Bolt down the legs to secure a gazebo to concrete.
If you decide to use bolts, you will need a drill to help you out. Sunjoy gazebos already have holes in their feet, simply set up your gazebo, mark the point on the concrete surface where the bolt should go, and start drilling. Once done you can secure the gazebo to the concrete surface with the bolt. Repeat this procedure for all 4 legs. Please confirm the position you want, once drilled, it cannot be changed.
2. Using rods
Just like with the bolts, you will need to drill considerable holes. Make sure to mark the holes exactly where they are, once drilled, they cannot be changed.
Once all the holes are drilled and the rods are inserted into the holes, you can slowly lower your gazebo onto the rods.
The rods will be permanent but that doesn’t mean you can’t take down your gazebo, so placed the rods in such a way that they won’t be a nuisance when not in use.
You have selected a gazebo kit and built the gazebo you need, and now you're ready to create the perfect outdoor backyard of your dreams.
It's hard to start building without an idea, so before trying to create your backyard, write all your ideas down, maybe you can draw a simple sketch.🌼
By planning your design using sketches and drawings, you can identify obstacles before they actually occur. Things to look out for include drainage issues, proximity to power sources, location in daytime sunlight, and not blocking access to the door.
After you've planned a successful design, it's time to spice up your outdoor space. Plants are great for creating shade and adding a touch of natural color to your outdoor area.🌿
The exact variety of plants you choose will depend on your own personal preferences, ranging from small pots of greens to larger pots of colorful flowers.🌺🌼
For those who don't like to decorate with plants, we can use mood lighting, or bright chandeliers to decorate. It will light up your outdoor evenings, even if it's an outdoor dinner party at night.🌟
Accessories are of course our favorite part of backyard design. From string lights to swings, the finishing touches make all the difference. Greeting guests under cheap folding chairs and a simple roof, it feels like everything is not so good. If you enjoy dining outdoors, choose high-quality outdoor furniture that will last a long time and options that are guaranteed to impress your guests.👍🏽
Many of the best moments in life happen in the backyard. Children love to play in the backyard, and there are naughty dogs running in the backyard. Every episode is a precious memory. Bring your family and friends to this comfortable space, drink drinks and chat, you will feel very happy and get closer to each other.🥂
