Cedar Arbors

A great item to set off your garden is a cedar arbor. Their long-lasting good looks and low maintenance make cedar the natural choice for your home and garden decor. These practical structures are not only affordable, they are constructed with top quality materials with unique designs to fit the fashionable gardener. With the added benefits of beauty and comfort, cedar is an ideal choice for any setting. Cedar has an exceptionally high strength-to-weight ratio, which means that it is both durable and easy to move about. It does not shrink or warp as many other woods commonly do. Unlike pressure-treated wood furniture, no chemical preservatives have been used that may be harmful to your family's health. These practical structures are not only affordable, they are constructed with top quality materials with unique designs to fit the fashionable gardener. Also with the cedar arbors, you have many options of styles to choose from. One unique item is the Nantucket Cedar Arbor; a truly elegant arbor, combining a soft curved header with the traditional angularity of the gable. The Craftsman Style features add a custom touch and suggest use as an entry or gateway. The Nantucket Arbor is a fine architectural look at a very modest price. Large Gable header supports heavy vines and foliage and is fixed-width 47-inch clear opening to accommodate wide paths. Hardware plays a critical role in ensuring the beauty, strength and durability of this product. Therefore we take great care in selecting materials which strike the right balance of performance and aesthetics. A combination of timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship ensure the enduring beauty and functionality of this fine garden structure. Time-tested construction techniques and materials guarantee uncommon strength and durability. For example, the pre-assembled side panels of our arbors feature mortise and tenon joinery of rails and posts, with lattice panels glued at every intersection, then set into channels in the surrounding frame and secured with aluminum staples. It can be assembled in less than 30 minutes following the comprehensive, step-by-step instructions. Many parts are pre-assembled, and are easily fitted together using pre-drilled pilot holes. All assembly and installation hardware, including concrete anchors for the arbors, is provided. These practical structures are not only constructed with top quality materials, they come in many different unique designs to fit the fashionable gardener. You can choose from a simple arch to a detailed version with even a bench.
