Back Of Our Arbours
All of our arbours are built with the back stud-work exposed as the majority of our arbours are installed into a corner of a garden. If the back is going to be exposed then we can clad the back of the arbour to match in with the internal tongue and groove boarding. Please do let us know if you would like this option. The image below shows the back of the arbour with the stud work exposed.

Access
Upon ordering please let us know about any access issues, as this will alter the way the arbour is built. If we come ready to install the arbour and we have access issues then all costs to alter the arbour will be chargeable.
Planning Permission
In some areas planning permission may be required to install our arbours due to the height being 3.3m. We can install our arbours within the permitted development legislation but they must be 2m or more away from any boundary, fence, hedge or wall. We strongly advise you check this with your local planning office as some areas are exempt from this legislation.
Please do contact us because we can provide costings for the concrete bases and also any other grounds-work that needs doing. lead time of 3-6 weeks depending on lead time.
