Can this arbor be attached to a deck? I currently have a metal arbor which has "L" shaped brackets built in which we used to fasten to our deck wi.

Yes, it could be. Doesn't have L brackets built in but they could be added if you feel it is needed.

I would surely think so. Mine is attached to the side of my garage. However, I did not drill thru the unit itself or use any brackets. The unit is tall and will be top heavy with vines/plants this season so I wanted it anchored toward the top. I used two Gardner Bender 45-518N Heavy Duty Military Cable Ties , 18-Inch, White, 10-Pack for $5.86. I attached two med-large round eye wood screws to the outside of garage through and into the studs. Then looped cable ties thru the screws and around each back side post of the arbor . . . pulled them tight and worked great. White ties match the unit so not really noticeable and vines will hide them as well. I don't really care if the ties show it is secured and that's what I wanted.

This one comes with ground stakes. But the legs are open pvc, so if you were to get creative, you could probably attach it. It is tall however it is pretty sturdy, so that would have to be taken into consideration.

Im not sure, this one has an opening on the ends where you screw in to the pieces that go into cement to permanently install. So mine was permanently installed with concrete into the ground. Very stable. I did not save the directions. Is your deck wood? I would say there must be a way to do it but I would nit know how to figure it out. A beautiful arbor I might add, nice it's weather proofed too. Long lasting. :) good luck!!!

One person had attached this to their garage. Several others used it on their decks also.

Yes, This arbor came with 4 additional pieces of rectangular white rail that are 16 inches long and that fit (telescopically) inside of the openings in the legs of the arbor. These are used to anchor the arbor into the ground and to level the arbor. Once the four posts are secured in the ground either with soil or cement, the arbor's legs fit right over them. Then when you get each of the arbor's legs exactly where you want them, and it is level, there are screws that secure the arbor to the posts.

Yes but depending on the size of your arbor it might not accept more than a half inch of the stack

On the Stokes website they say this - "The Clamp-On Deck Hook easily attaches to horizontal deck rails ranging in size from 3/4″ to 2″ thick...".So that's is "just" too small. You could probably just put a plywood shim in it.

It has holes in a tab that is at the bottom of each leg. You can anchor it to the ground with supplied stakes. I buried two 4x4 pressure treated posts horizontally, flush with the ground and used deck screws to secure the arbor. That worked very well.

It's a great umbrella, we don't have it secured to our deck, but you can defiantly do so, you would need the right bolts for your deck type.

It is possible if you are handy. The difficulty would be placing the arch on top after it is put together. I must be well anchored. We did not use a cement base and it withstood a terrible wind storm. However, it is attached to a rather large rose bush. If you already have a large planting in place you may need some help to hold the plant up until you complete the arbor.

The frame assembly bolts are included but will not stay tight and there is nothing included to mount the legs to a deck or surface of your choice. There is a product called "loctite" that claim to keep nuts permanently tight. you can use on the nut threads while tightening them and that might help. My suggestion, pick a better stand..

It attaches by two hooks/rings. We have ours on a wooden swing set so there is no bar. You should be able to hang it from a wooden deck using strong screw hooks. Just make sure they're strong enough and securely fastened into the deck plank.

Probably if the deck has joists as most do you could mount the anchor bolts to the joists.

Yes it can but you either have to use the offset mounting brackets or do what I did and use a 1/2 sheet of plywood between the saw and the brackets. It works great and the plywood actually made the setup stiff and more solid feeling.

Hi, Mary! Yes, I placed mine on my deck and have had no problems with it. It doesn't need to be anchored down because it is sufficiently heavy to remain in place. I suppose if you live in an area with extremely strong winds things might be different but it hasn't been an issue for me.

As long as it is anchored into a wooden deck or lawn timbers as we did it will be fine. If it is just anchored into the ground, then no, I wouldn't do it. We had lawn timbers put into the ground level all the way around and anchored it into that (if you don't have a deck) It was very sturdy all winter....

This arbor should be anchored to the ground. The metal stakes included have to be put into the ground at least 12". I don't think it would work well free-standing in an outdoor environment.

The arbor came with extensions that you can bury. It worked OK and it looks great!

I anchored mine to my wooden deck, but if you try asphalt you will need to use lag bolts or lead shields to keep it in place

If you added planks to each side under the legs to give it more stability, don't see why not. The planks could be 1" X 4"'s about twice as long as the arbor legs are. Long corner braces could be screwed to the planks - then to the four leg sides to stabilize it from wobbling too much from side to side. After the wedding, you would still have it to place in your landscape. Double whammy!
