Extraneous Notes and Explanations
* The listed Arbor costs do not include posts and standard post caps.
* Certain 4-post arbors, such as the Arbor #19, include short post extensions to enable optional mounting to masonry wall-tops.
*Certain Arbor styles, such as #10, mount to the site posts with the use of threaded rod. The #10 arrives with the threaded rod in place.
*Arbor styles such as the #9, #8, and #15, and #31 arrive with pre-bored mounting holes and coated lags for mounting directly onto the posts
*Certain Arbor styles extend to wider widths than others. The maximum width is noted on each Arbor page.
* Most Arbors offer optional mounting caps, for 3-½” and 5-½” site posts. The caps are fixed to the arbors and seat themselves, and the arbor, on top of the site posts.
Regarding your posts: Although posts brackets are acceptable on 4-post arbors, it is advisable to set 2-post arbors below grade. Click Here for an example on post setting. It will make the difference between a post with an 7-8 year life and a post with a 30 year life. When investing in Prowell’s arbors, do not allow an improperly set post to be your weakest link. Insist your installer follow this method for posts that are to be set into the grade. Other methods, such as above-grade brackets, are at the discretion of your installer.
