Very nice.....Ive put up two of these exact gazebos. I want to tell everyone that are considering any of these gazebos, the corner posts are all hollow. You must drill throught the top of one of the corner posts about 8 inches deep, but if you can, you can run electrical up through the bottom out the top of the post. I currently run a string of led lights, bluetooth patio speakers and a wall switched controlled fan. Its quite simple so take advantage of that fact.

I have just picked one of these up today and I have seen a couple of good videos on putting together the posts and the roof panels but this is one of the best ones for erecting the structure. Mine will be on a uneven existing stone patio so I will use a laser level to work out the different levels and cut the posts to the correct heights by trimming the bottoms accordingly (they vary by up to 100mm) as it’s the levelness of the top that is most importance to get the roof right.

Eric, I loved it in the store. I love it at home. first, it was a nightmare to get home. I had to call a friend with a truck, and I HATE asking anybody to help me with anything. Assembling the roof panels was pretty simple in the garage. They went together in about 45 minutes each. But, the day we actually assembled all the parts of it on the patio was like 100 degrees and that was about 4 hours on Saturday to build the frame, and 4 hours on Sunday to install and secure the roof. The lifting and all that wasn't bad, but there are literally a thousand screws to this thing. So, that part got annoying, Still, we love it. Thanks so much for watching.

Impressive job! We are building the same here in Denver and this video is encouraging! Unfortunately, we also have to get both zoning and building permits which is just delaying the project. The structure will be anchored on 12" x 42" Sonatube concrete forms to reach the frost line (at 36") and also raise the base by up to 6" to protect from snow melt in Winter. At least that is the theory. The use of 2x4x10 was a great hint. Thank you!

A year later, we still love it. I also have a video on how I wired it for a ceiling fan and installed an electrical box on the ceiling for string lights. Then, I have a video on our new DIY channel "DIY Project Guys" that shows me installing a privacy wall on one side of the gazebo out of shiplap.

Assembling one of these now for a customer. It is beautiful but I have to say it’s the worst one I’ve had to do and I’ve done a lot of different brands and sizes. The roof panels are super thin so I don’t expect them to last long. All the metal parts are shrink wrapped and it takes a good couple of hours just to get it off. This is the only gazebo I’ve seen where the build has you complete the roof on the ground then have to lift it on top. All the others I’ve built have you build the frame/rafters then place the panels which is so much easier. While it is pretty I can’t recommend this one, not when I’ve assembled ones that are just as solid and aesthetically pleasing with way easier assembly for a similar price.

Glad it helped! So I did the same thing. I purchased mine in the beginning of Covid so I had a project while I was at home. It sat in my garage for 4 weeks before I ever touched it. I spent night after night watching the same KZitem videos. I thought it was going to be a disaster because it was just the two of us and our 13yr old son who cant do anything at all. I couldn't ask anyone for help because of the Covid thing. So, I expected complete failure. But, I also felt I had watched enough videos to know what to expect. After the slab was dry, we started by just assembling the frame the first weekend and it was simple. Then, during that next week, I assembled all the roof panels myself in the garage, one per day. They were really simple. That next weekend we took on the roof. It was the part I dreaded the most yet it went together very, very fast, No problems. I was prepared on how to lift up the other three panels to get the 4th panel in because of the videos I watched. And just like that, all 4 roof panels were on. You should be good if you watched our video and the other ones. If you don't have a guy on a ladder dealing with fitting the roof together, then you have to have a 10ft 2x4! You got this!! I also put up a video about some string lights I got at Costco. And, next Wednesday I am publishing a video of how I wired the thing with electric for the ceiling fan. Stay tuned!

I am planning to put this gazebo on an actual deck (composite) by my pool and have been debating how to secure the posts and give the entire gazebo some structural strength to survive high winds and potential hurricanes (I'm in NC).

So, I am. not able to use the anchoring brackets that come with the posts on 3 of the posts. So I have to come up with something else. I will do a video when the temperature drops below 100 here in Phoenix. Until then , its not going anywhere because that thing is very heavy.

One of the last steps is sliding the aluminum ridge caps up from the corners on angled joints of the roof. How did you do that on the side that is so close to the wall? (I watched the Yardistry's "Helpful Hints" video, but it made it appear that you need lots of clearance between the roof and the wall.) What was your trick?
@PlantBasedDads
3 жыл бұрын
Kevin, that was the part that I was dreading the whole time during the build. And, its the one thing I could not find in any other video. We had to restart the camera ever 30 mins because thats the longest it will record. It stopped recording right before we did the ridge caps. So frustrating. It's the one part that I REALLY wanted to show. We watched the Yardistry helpful hints too. Thats how we figured out how to get them on. In the video they tell you to bend up one side of the ridge cap and then clip on the other side and bend the first side back down Tim got them on there but it was a struggle. He had to bend the ridge cap open on one side pretty far up, and then bend it back into place. When you look at the video at the end, it shows a roof view from my upstairs window over the structure that shows the ridge caps, and they do appear to be on correctly. So, we just did what the Yardistry helpful hints video said. It did work. But I really wish we could have shown that to you in the video.

However, here in Palm Beach county it has to be permitted and adhere to property line setbacks (5’) and pass the engineering specs for hurricane winds. I’m just now getting all the yardistry drawings for the components to submit with my permit applications……it’s going to be another zoning and permitting shit show !!

Hey Joey, thanks for sharing this video. The gazebo looks amazing and loved your new DIY project channel. I just recently bought the same gazebo from Costco and will be doing my own project this weekend. Question for you, how did you manage to install the ridgecap on the roof? It looks to me that two of the corners of the gazebo are against the wall close to your patio sliding door? I have a very similar situation on my own project? Trying to figure out the best solution. Your input would be highly appreciated. Ciao!

Hi Greg. If there was one thing I should have shown in that video its that! But, the camera did not record that part of the installation. Yardistry has a video where they tell you what to do. We had to take the ridge cap and bend it open about half way up the length of it. Then we were able to slide it on and bend that part of it back into place as we were putting it on. I wish we had gotten that part on video. It was my biggest concern when we were watching all these videos and nobody showed it. Thanks so much for watching

@@PlantBasedDads did this affect the amount of natural light coming into your home through the sliding door at all? My wife is convinced this will eliminate any possible sunlight into our space, and our yard is similar setup to yours.

Hi Don. Nothing makes me more sorry than reading emails about this. And let me tell you why. When I was planing to build this thing, I was desperate to find someone that built it right next to their house, so I could see how all of this came together. I knew from watching the Yardistry videos that you needed to have some space away from the house to get those ridge caps on. So, I eventually watched a Yardistry video that tells you what to do in this situation. I set up the camera and filmed this whole damned thing, but did NOT film that part of the build because the camera ran out of space while I was on the ladder working on this. Its the one part of the build that I really wanted in the video because of how it isn't shown anywhere else. So, I just hate that it's not in there. I am so sorry. I can tell you that we had to bend the ridge caps open and clip them on one side of the ridge clips and then bend it back to clip it over on the other side. That did work and ours has been up for over a year with no issues. Check out the video below. They talk about this at about 9 minutes into the video. It's close to the end of the video. I am very sorry I don't have this on video to show you. It almost makes the whole video pointless if you are building it next to your house. kzitem.info/news/bejne/12Zn0oGmnGmJp4o

If there was one thing I wish I had spent more time on during the shooting of this video, it would be that part of it where we slid the ridge caps on up agains the house. I knew before I build this thing that there were NO video out there showing that and that my gazebo was going to be up against our house. And then of course I didnt show how we did it, which now just frustrates me. What we ended up doing was following the advice of the Yardistry Video that is out there. We had to bend the ridge caps apart, slide the left side of the cap onto the seem, and then bend it back into place while having the right side go OVER the ridge on that side. It was NOT easy. But, it did work and this April will be a year that we have had that thing up over the patio. By the way, we did not get bolt it down to the ground and we went right through our monsoon season here. That thing didn't budge. I drew some lines on the pavement to show were it was when we installed it and it is still right were we originally place it. It's not going anywhere. It is very heavy. Good luck with the install. Check out my ceiling fan and wiring/conduit installation video and my string lights/switched outlet installation video for this too.

Hi Joey, this is a great video. I bought the same gazebo at Costco and built it on my back porch with one side leaning against the house, just like you. My question is, how did you install the roof ridge caps that are supposed to slide in from the outside corner of the roof? I wasn’t able to figure out a way to do it on the 2 corners leaning against the house.

James, every time someone asks me that I get sad. That was the one thing I wanted to know when I was getting ready to build this and of course, my camera did not film that part. I was really upset. I followed the instructions on the video by Yardistry. Its called Helpful Tips or something. They say to bend the ridge cap open, clip it on one side and bend it back into place. That is what we did on the two sides up against the house. Thanks so much for watching.

Rick, I didnt! Every time we have a monsoon, I run outside to see if the thing starts moving but it has not budged. It does weigh about 600lbs so really I am not expecting it to move. But, I do have to secure it eventually. That was why I had the concrete slab poured. It just got too hot here in Phoenix to work outside though. Next month, when the weather changes, i'll be doing a video on how I secured it when I actually secure it. Check out my lighting video and my fan/wiring installation video on that gazebo. Thanks for watching bro.

I wish the camera had caught that part. We. had to bend the ridge caps open, slide one side on, and then bend it back into place around the other side of the ridge. It was not easy. But, it did work and it is keeping the rain out so its working well. Thanks so much for watching.
