Technical Information:

Number of people required for assembly: 2  to include a good handyman

Guide time for assembly:  approx 10-12 hours for the full unit

The Gate Lodge needs 6 bags of instant mix concrete (post-Crete) or similar allowing 1/2 bag per
hole. (available from most hardware shops or builders merchants)

NOTE: USE THE DRILL BIT PROVIDED TO PRE-DRILL ALL THE SCREW HOLES TO AVOID SPLITTING THE
TIMBER. You may want to use a countersink drill bit to give the screw holes  a superior finish

Your climbing frame can be stored outside until you are ready to assemble the unit, we recommend
storing it near the place you are looking to build it.

To allow trapped moisture to evaporate cut back the shrink wrap packaging but be careful not to
lose any parts. Slight cracks may appear in the wood at any time after delivery, this is due to the
natural working of the wood and is normal. If moisture is trapped under the plastic you will
sometimes find mould spots present, this will wipe away and have no long term effects.

NB: Cracking will not affect the tower's structural stability. Surfaces of the wood have been planed
but you may find small splinters around drill holes which can easily be sanded away.
