Structure, height, and timeless garden appeal.
The GA87 Garden Arbor adds definition and character to any outdoor space. Whether placed at the entrance to a garden path, over a walkway, or as a focal point in your yard, it creates a natural frame that draws the eye and elevates your landscape.
Crafted from FSC certified Western Red Cedar, this arbor is naturally resistant to decay and insects, built to withstand the elements while aging beautifully over time. Precision-cut components and snug-fitting parts ensure a strong, stable structure, while the smooth sanded finish gives it a clean, refined appearance.
Perfect for supporting climbing vines, roses, or decorative lighting, the GA87 blends classic design with dependable durability.
The packaging and quality of the cedar is very good. Like Teal, of Pomona, NY stated in their review: it’s a box of wood and bag of hardware and some very simplistic instructions. As a prolific builder and DIYfer I used my experience in assembling the arch. Fortunately, I have a pneumatic brad nailer with galvanized brads which made short time in nailing the many pieces together. I did not follow the slat spacing suggestions from the directions, rather having read the reviews, I made my own jig spacers after careful measurements.
Pros: Good quality cedar; Looks excellent when completed; Assembly is straight forward once you figure out the spacing; Left unfinished the cedar will gracefully weather
Cons: Directions need embellishment; Not for those wanting a quick assembly; Took over 6 hours to complete; Nails provided are not galvanized and should be of an outside product; Only 2 decorative wooden “arrows”---should be 4 for two on each side; Added longer and beefier exterior screws at the top/side joints for more strength.
