This is a narrated slide show with video clips that shows steps taken to assemble an aluminum gazebo that was ordered from Purple Leaf Garden. This video is too long and quite boring. And my voice-over narration is improvised, not scripted. If you want a professional video production or professional gazebo assembly, I suggest you go elsewhere. This is just one guy's steps taken to get the thousands of parts that make up this gazebo, assembled. I did this assembly, along with taking the pictures and videos, single handed, so I didn't capture everything, nor did I do everything right. But the video does have the honesty that comes from someone not trying to sell anything.
Here's a link to the instructions they sent, since I've had comments that the instructions sometimes aren't included: drive.google.com/file/d/1ZtQg...
The kit was mostly OK. There were some bent pieces, but I straightened them out. Most of the holes were in the right place, and there were no missing pieces. The biggest issue was that whoever was responsible for the holes in the roof panels didn't get that quite right. Close, but no cigar. I managed to wrangle the roof panels in place, and only had to drill out in a handful of locations (not shown in the video).

I’m a huge DIY’er, and I was gonna attempt to assemble the 10x14 with my husband . Thank you for making this video because after watching it, my husband said F THAT! 🤣🤣 He’s like NOPE, we’re hiring some guys to do this for us. We’ve been down that road before with smaller fabric gazebos and he loses patience easily. I’m glad you were able to get it built alone and saved yourself the extra money.

Thank you SO much for your idea of putting the cardboard box on top of the ladder to hold the other end of roof frame! I did something a little different. With God's guidance, I taped the box with painters tape to the roof piece instead of to the ladder and then lifted it up onto the ladder. I then secured that assembly to the ladder using a ratchet strap. After the 3rd piece was attached, I removed the ladder, which left the box still attached hanging in the air. It was easy to cut the tape loose and remove because it was painters tape and let the box fall. I don't know how you did that alone! I am a 68 year old woman and I had help from my 71 year old female friend and co-worker and my daughter. I will say that there were some tense moments! I purchased the sunroom, which has a similar installation. I also appreciate your idea of securing the posts in the 1st step to something. I secured mine with ladders and bungie cords. Great idea! Thanks! My next step will be to install the roof panels. I think the hardest part is over.

Also, we're building up against the home with no real access to the top by ladder on two sides). Your instruction is going to be quite helpful there! Thank you for the conduit placement - we hadn't thought of that but will be doing that. At this time, ours was delivered last night but only 4 of the 5 boxes arrived - box 3 (roof panels apparently) is missing.

Yes, the corner gutters get full of debris. I was going to make another video about this. Having that one drain hole is a bad idea. What happens is water doesn't flow out, but instead fills-up the inside of the beam and drips out the middle. I'm not sure what I'm going to do, but there's something that needs doing to fix this problem.

Quick question for the top roof(V panels) around the 13:44 mark, did you put the Z, Z1, Z2 etc clips ? It appears like you just put the panels in without those clips… I’m having an incredibly hard time keeping them on when I try to slide them in..
@sengsational
@sengsational 2 жыл бұрын
I think the "Z" clips are to keep insects from coming through where the roof panels meet the hip rafters. You are correct, I don't think I installed the "Z" clips on the small upper roof (just bad on my part). I did put them on the lower, larger panels, and you're right, they do fall off. Not a great design, but I'm not concerned about insects anyway.

Two really quick questions do you know the bolt size for the tie down into deck? I am doing mine in concrete an using tapcon bolts I just don’t know the size. Also did you use the sealant that comes written in Chinese? I read the sealant is for the brackets inside the rails.
@sengsational
@sengsational 2 жыл бұрын
The sealant is for where the horizontal beams (gutters) come together. I used 3/8 inch diameter by 3 1/2inch long lag screws to secure the legs to the framing. The tapcon will probably not be quite as large of a diameter, but I think the length matters more than the diameter. More threads into the concrete is good.

@sengsational
@sengsational 2 жыл бұрын
Tony, The design seems good, and the materials, good too. Some of the roof panels had rust that had been painted over. That was the biggest defect I saw. You heard about the challenges to assembly, but once assembled, I'd say it's pretty solid. One design issue is that the gutters go to the plastic corners and the small hole gets plugged with debris. And improvement might be to have the corners snap on and off so you can clean out the junk that accumulates. The structure is solid, if that was your concern; it doesn't budge a bit in high wind. Of course, I've got it bolted down!!

@sengsational
@sengsational 2 жыл бұрын
I had not thought about raising it up, but I think if you had long enough bolts or lag screws, placing the feet on a short stack of composite deck material seems like it would work. That material slides easily, so you'd probably need to secure all pieces together. I have experience jacking up a corner of the structure because I had to add deck boards after the gazebo had been completed. I just cut a 2x4 such that when placed under the horizontal beam, the corner was raised up a few inches. It wasn't difficult to lift the corner of the structure long enough to get the 2x4 into place.

I did the Ps and Qs first before the K for the roof.... anyhow K slide off my ladder that was holding it up and fell pulling Ps and Qs and the big beams all down..., pulling the housings off the M beams where the single bolt attaches. The instructions leave it up to your imagination how to get the roof going. Once you had K put into the M beams, did it stay at the height that you wanted? Really the roof needs to be re-instructed in the manual /instructions. Thanks for your video. It helps me see the steps ahead .

Yes, I was worried about the collapse that you experienced, but for me, the peak of the roof did stay where it should have.

We have added fans (see: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/pZqGha2mqLyuiXk.html ) and it's reasonably comfortable, even on the hottest days. But I'm pretty sure it would be intolerable without fans (here in the piedmont of the carolinas).

We don't get snow here, but we've had wind, and it's been solid. I've got lag bolts into framing members on all 6 feet. The wind seems not to have any effect, at least up to 40mph gusts, which we've had a few times.

Ha! Yeah, I got my first sail boat when I was 7 years old and so "single handed" is when you operate the boat by yourself. Sixty years later, and I just now tried sailing something where I needed another "deck hand" to manage the boat.

How would this work on patio block?

I would want to anchor the legs down. This might be "overboard", but if you pulled up a few blocks where the legs would be, dug it out a bit and poured concrete, then glued the blocks down with construction adhesive, that might give you something that wouldn't lift up in a wind. You'd need to get some kind of "tapcrete" type screws, or something like that.

Can you give me the dimensions of the bracket that is used to mount to deck or cement? Can’t seem to find anywhere in the manual. Thanks Got some info from the manufacturer… 8.465” is the bracket length and width. Someone actually measured it and sent pics. I’m going to put on a wood 1’ post with gen stone wrapping the post… at least that’s the plan today!!!

I really appreciate this video and all of the comments! But..... I........ NEED....... HELP!!!!!!!!!! Seriously.......how important are the plastic Z thingys that are supposed to be snapped on the edges and fed into the trim corners?? My hubby and I CANNOT do it! NO WAY. They won't feed into the track at all. They have fallen out, gotten stuck in the track after slipping off, and been thrown across the patio in total frustration. They've been doing everything BUT WORKING. We are deciding to scrap them ALL because I can't figure out their worth. Anyone out there help me with this one?? We have this exact model but it's 12x18 and I applaud ANYONE who attempted to assemble this gazebo LOL. All weekend now and nightly after work for 2 days and have a quarter of the roof done geesh. Thanks in advance for any insight that anyone can give me!

@@williecastro9217 we went on without using any of them. There was no other way that we could make it work. Hindsight may tell us more but at this time we were more concerned with keeping our sanity and staying married LOL 🤣🤣🤣 I do not see any negative repercussions from not using them. All panels went in great and stayed in place with 2 days of 40+ mph winds last week so... Good luck to you!!

I left the Z things off the top roof (just forgot them). The purpose, I think, is to prevent flying insects from entering. But we aren't even attempting to keep insects out (haven't put up the screens), so I don't think the Z things have any use.
