Cantilever Carport 3.0m x 5.5m

What an awesome addition to our outdoor area, had a builder friend help me install, but could be done with two DIY skilled people. It has made such a massive difference to our ability to enjoy our outdoor area in rain and in sun. A very happy trade tested customer!

I modified the legs to save digging up the concrete driveway and bolted the uprights to the concrete block retaining wall. An excellent result and an easy job to complete.

So far fit for purpose. Being used to cover motorhome. Installed over 2 days (concrete set in between ) by 2 experienced trades people. Instructions terrible.

Good product but terrible instructions

I love this pergola and it’s perfect for our space. Well made and seems strong and durable. It took two experienced tradespeople 1.5 days to assemble (half a day to lay out and set the posts, one day to assemble the roof). The instructions were slightly confusing at times, especially step 6 which needs a clearer picture.

Great product, good quality and quickly assembled by experienced tradesman

Looks lovely up, and not too complicated in putting up. Just needed 3 to 4 people when lifting roof onto the two uprights

My one was ok for the first 6 months then the poly carbonate panel started to part away not sure if the warranty cover this.

Easy to put together. Everything fitted perfectly.

This is a good product , I would recommend it. I did find myself spending a lot of time figuring out the badly written instructions , that really frustrated me. I suppose if you are in the trade you wont need to read it and most unclear thing was mounting of the top frame to the initial pillars as well as the poly carbon sheet holder but if i re-read it afterwards it sort of makes sense. Did it mostly solo but you do need someone to help lift the top frame to the structure. 2 tall people should easily manage with ladders. It is not heavy just bulky and to lift it onto the frame does need a second person. Scaffolding is a bit extreme but probably safest. Dug bigger holes , recommendation is 50x50x60 , did 60x60x60 and used 28 bags of Drymix concrete readymix bags. Did one pillar at a time and made sure it was set before i did the second, allowed me to use a beam between the pillars to ensure they are exactly 3.5 m apart and straight (flush too) so was easy to mount the top. Took me 3 days as a novice solo job , either way the minimum time is probably 2 days so the concrete can set . Looks great and sofar so good.
