Determine the location for your arbor, and measure out the exact
distance between the posts as shown in (Fig. 2) on the front
cover. Once you’ve verified the measurements, mark each post
location on the ground.
Note:
If you’ve purchased the Aussie
Auger mounts, please refer to the their instructions to complete
the installation.
15
Dig four holes in the marked locations. For the “pro model”
holes will need to be 36” deep. For the standard model we
recommend a minimum depth of 24” to provide a secure footing.
If you’ve not purchased Aussie Auger mounts, use 5x5 treated
posts to mount your arbor. Slide them inside the vinyl posts and
fasten with screws (not included) through the bottom just below
the base moldings.
Slide each trim cap up to the underside of the arch, and press the
cap firmly against the flat of the arch. Hold for a few seconds to
allow the glue to bond. Using four 3/4” screws per post, fasten
through the post & into the arch insert just below each trim cap.
Note:
If your arbor is tan, use the included cap/washer
assemblies along with the screws.
16
With assistance, place your arbor into the holes and check each
post for level. Verify the measurements between the posts, and
make adjustments as needed. When the desired orientation has
been achieved, fill in the holes. We “strongly” recommend using
concrete for this, especially if you have plans to attach a gate to
your arbor.

17
Brace the arbor to keep it steady while the cement cures. Make
sure to slide the base moldings down to ground level when
finished. There should be a least a 1” gap between the top of the
base molding and the bottom rail.
If you have not purchased the optional
trim kit, please disregard this step.
