can this trellis stand alone with out something to lean on
1022958
I have the trellis next to a fence about 12 inches away with a bougainvillea growing next to the trellis. I don't even have the supports installed and it has held up well.The one caveat I would say is I'm in Florida and haven't encountered any bad weather since installing the trellis.I do think it would hold if the supports are installed.I hope this helps.

I have mine installed about 6 to 8 inches away from the wall supported by two posts driven about a foot into the ground. I attached the trellis to the postsusing stainless steel screws. It stands very well that way and has endured heavy winds.

It will stand up on its own, but the whole light is very lightweight and it would not take much to knock it over.

Yes it can stand alone but if lightly knocked against it will wobble over. Left alone it is quite stable.

This item will stand by itself, it does not need to be hammered to the ground.

It can stand on its own, I suppose but it is not designed for that. If you put tall things in it (like ceran wrap) it might tip over. You should mount it, but beware, it is not easy to mount: it requires precision and I recommend adding a washer to the screw it comes with, otherwise it is a truly unnecessarily tedious job.

We bought this trellis last summer and love it, so you're not making a mistake with this purchase. It's well made, heavy and sturdy. We have our trellis leaning on our brick wall and it works perfectly for our climbing roses and clematis. The posts are very thick but using the grid portion might be OK, although I'm not sure how you would fasten it. I don't recall that hardware to do this was included though.

As long as you stand it as show in the photo (in a W shape, not straight) it stands fine on its own. I haven't had any issues with mine.

Yes, as long as you anchor it well--i.e., I purchased at my local lumber/garden center some pointed fence posts about 42" tall, one for each corner of the trellis. I positioned it and drove the posts into the ground a little over one foot and secured the trellis tightly to it with heavy duty zip ties. From one Gramma to another, this was great!

It can stand by itself. I do not have a frame either. I pushed it back to the wall, and pushed the box and mattress to Headboard.

Not specifically. With some cleverness, you can probably prop it up. But it's not designed to stand on its own.

there are metal spikes that fit into the footings ,allowing it to anchor pretty well . I used cable ties to attach them to a chain link fence. I suppose you could put one of those screws with the circle on top into the wall and run a cable tie through the hole and around your trellis. should be stable .

It could be secured but only with something that you create on your own. We assumed it could be a stand alone panel and it can't so my husband made some angled braces to allow it to stand independently but a good stiff wind can still knock it over. Hope this helps! (P.S. the piece itself is absolutely beautiful and very well constructed. I highly recommend it)

The stool will stand up straight on its own. The stool does not need to lean on anything. Even when tipped over slightly, the stool will "rebound" to a stable, upright position.

Not on its own. You need to prop it up with blocks or something on one end.

Yes but with some kind of support surrounding. It will not stand straight up alone.

Yes. It is absolutely rigid enough for a standalone installation ... but I do recommend a bit of concrete in the holes. You have a good plan. Actually, I have two of these spaced about 10 feet apart. I have Rambling Rose plants climbing up each one and crossing over between the two. Very stable.
