Always start w the center panels and work your way outwards on each side. The center panels set the whole side. I highly recommend Tapcon anchors to secure the gazebo or pergola if its concrete.

[@Th3Puck]

Thanks! I installed a similar Pavilion/Pergola on my new terrace and anchored it using expanding concrete anchors (they came with the pergola). My terrace is 10cm/4 inch thick concrete/mortar with 2cm/0.8inch ceramic tiles on top. Do you think I need to waterproof the holes I made to stop water getting under the tiles, freezing and lifting them up over time?

[@snaLee1]

Good advise. Thanks I am planning to install same gazebo 10x12 on my existing 16x16 floating pressure treated lumber deck made in 2023, deck sitting on deck block foundation. I will be placing my 10x12 gazebo in the middle of the deck & not on any one side of rim joist. My concern is my gazebo 4 posts/ legs will be just standing on the deck board and not on any joists. My question is How do I reinforce my decking board, so I can securely attach my 4 posts with 4 anchors/post securely, hence my deck is well anchored during heavy winds & storms. I Live in Detroit/WindsorON location. Plz advise. Awaiting eagerly for your advice.

[@erniewyles8832]

@@snaLee1 if you're able to, go under the deck and connect the across two joists where the legs would be. This gives you something to screw into. If you can't go under the deck, that may be difficult then.

I figured everyone knew about Allan key bits, my Milwaukee bit kits have been coming with these bits for 10+ years. Saves so many hours of work.

[@JAye365]

10 plus years of assembling, maintaining, moving fitness equipment and this has been my go to! But it takes some practice and skill to not cross thread or round out screws/ bolts. I also found out early that Dewalt 12v system is way lighter and powerful enough to handle all assembly needs.

[@ToddParker-qb4nj]

I installed (by myself!) the 10x12 purple leaf gazebo this weekend (during constant rain)- your video was the best one that I viewed. You provided actual close up installation video and tips on installation - the highlights for me were not tightening hardware (leave "loose") installing the roof in stages and to work from the middle panels first (so screws could be installed and reached!) also location of the ladder - all great comments and suggestions. I hired our long time builder to dig footings and he was astounded that it was "perfectly square" when he measured - I never touched a level - just the followed the directions and your "tips" - thank you so much!

[@heyitsaamirj]

The tips here really helped us build our gazebo yesterday. Still took us like 7 hours but without this video it would have taken much much longer. Thank you!

[@thomasbriggs2035]

I respect the fact that instead of you using the drill bit tool you use the backup bit to show us that it actually does work, mad respect.

[@phox1515]

I just finished assembling one of these (different brand but same concept) a few days ago... Your drill bit suggestion was a life saver! Not to mention I also learned the purpose of those number settings on drill... 34 years old, been using power tools since my early teens and only just learned that haha. Thanks so much for the tips! I'd like to also advise, be careful with some of the aluminum parts can bend / pinch easy and if they do.... You're not going to be happy. I had to bend / fix several parts that the roof panels slid on. I also want to say... Instructions said 3 people.... Did it with 1.5 (my mother helped and she claims she is only worth half a person haha. Overall it wasn't as bad as I was expecting.

[@traviscaudill8945]

Using the drill is a must, if you want to be even faster and happier while building go ahead and pull all the hardware out of the plastic and put it in some labeled plastic bowls or get some of the metal magnetized trays to hold them. That way you not trying to look at the labels on the front of the plastic after the back is open and you're not struggling to get the screws free from the plastic the whole time.

[@sleepingladydragon8717]

Great time (and wrist) saving tips! I know we saw enough to get the job done but it's always nice to see each step as done as possible if for nothing else visualization and inspiration. 😊 We want to see the gazebo in all its glory screwed down and curtains on.

[@syky1837]

He talking too much about the drill n not on the assembly

[@haugwoods]

@Home RenoVision DIY I have almost the same Gazebo from Costco and some of the center roof panels are not bolted down on both sides but held down by the adjacent panels... If you are in a windy area like I am, that doesn't work. Since i am not interested in searching for my gazebo roof in the neighborhood, I tied them down with zip ties to the frame. Holes for the ties to go through are already stamped in the panels. Little hack great benefit.

[@SmokinTrailsNS]

Sojag also makes a winter cover for these. It turns the gazebo into a winter shed in the offseason. Used mine for last three years and works great!

[@infosociety2112]

Have you had any issues with the snow building up on the roof, or did you always clear it after every snow fall?

[@SmokinTrailsNS]

@@infosociety2112 I think I've only cleared it off once to be safe. The gazebo was pretty sturdy. The snow would eventually fall off with wind and sun.

[@vincentlafleche8203]

Last year we installed a similar 10x12 one. A nail set puch was really useful to align the roof pannels before screwing them down. And yah we used screwdrivers with Allen key bits, it was quite a workout! Thx for all the videos!

[@HandlingSmilus]

Followed your video and used your tips and tricks for a successful weekend evening build with my wife and I.

27:33 Suggestion would be to use a socket and a Drive Spinner Handle. This would be much easier to tighten or hold the nut in place. Pliers will just slip off and scratch the product.

[@michaelz1528]

This was much better than the manufacturer build video and had a lot of great tips. They now include little plastic clips at the top of the metal roof panels, the included tape to hold them during install is terrible we ended up buying a more sturdy two sided tape for it.

[@barrywisdoman9573]

We installed the exact same gazebo at my parents house and used the same method with the Allen drill bits. Saved so much time. What a coincidence!

[@perfctgamer]

Good build! Took you more than 3h30 (more like 4h30). Gazebo assembly's are all different even if they look similar so make sure to always follow every step of the manual in order to prevent losing time. (Check twice, install once). Also, this is a very simple model, don't get fooled into thinking they are all this fast. The fast majority of models of 10 x 10 will take a good 5-6 hours with the proper material.

[@x1984x]

I would say that I got a similar gazebo for free last week. But I actually got paid to take it down! And you're so right about buying a set of hex bits for your driver. SUCH a massive time saver! I also use my angle drill attachment far more often that I expected.

[@noellanmcdaniel9055]

2 of us built a 12 x 20 like this over top and existing hot tub. You cannot put weight on a hot tub cover. We wound up buying our garage shelving units to use as scaffolding to work above hot tub. What a process! Yes everything stays loose till final step . Don't forget gloves with metal sheets. We didn't remove letter stickers so 3 years later it is still the alphabet palace haha well worth the challenge installing it!

[@shellderp]

Allen key driver bits are a huge time saver. I use my impact driver on screwdriver setting, never stripped anything. What I'd like to know about more is how to know where it is safe to screw down the posts on an existing deck

[@flatwaretech]

I'm gonna catch flack for this, but I couple the allen key bits with a 4V screwdriver (Ryobi) when assembling furniture. The reduced power prevents over-torqueing the fastener / stripping the threads when you run the drill in high speed. As you say; right tool for the right job.

[@Tonisuperfly]

I had an ikea drill which was small, that I think would perform a similar function. They had a screwdriver too but I never owned it. I used that drill so much and it was so handy, even while travelling in a small campervan. I tried to fly it back from the UK with me but it was confiscated because the battery isn't removable. Damn I miss that thing... (we don't have ikea in New Zealand yet).

[@mikefeddersen2476]

​@@TonisuperflyTSA should have a shipping option for all that have items they would like sent on. I lost a nice pocket knife, I heard of a woman that lost a family heirloom antique sewing kit.

[@chuey9313]

Nice job. Only thing I would've done differently to save more time, would be instead of labeling the bolts by pocket, I would label them by number 1-4. Still keep them in your pockets, but just work clockwise by number/pocket. Front left=1, front right=2, rear right=3, and rear left=4. This way you're not calling out middle left as a hole location, and then someone calling back front right as a bolt location. Not only could that get a bit confusing, but them just calling out a number is quicker as well. Every second adds up, but you still did great on time either way.

[@CopperCanyonTerrapins]

Hey Jeff, great video as always! I have really enjoyed this deck build/outdoor living space series! Curious why you went with the all aluminum over the yardistry aluminum/wood gazebos? I'm looking at a 12x12 or 12x16 to put on my back deck (I'm going to build using these videos) and just wanted some input.

[@AGlimpseInside]

Occasionally, you will definitely find those star bits will work perfectly with Allen key screws. Another thing you can do is buy a cheap set of allen keys, and angle grind them into pieces and just simply Chuck them in the drill. But I know you guys knew that as he did. Pretty cool piece of furniture. I definitely need it at my local Costco soon.

[@amerlin388]

Tip, don't open your bubble pack of nuts/bolts/screws on a deck that has gaps the pieces can fall through. Incidentally, I once collected the nuts & bolts from a pool pump I was working on into a magnetic tray. Remembered AFTER they flew everywhere that such pieces are stainless steel.

[@Chubacca838]

[@cjmmjc2131]

when you did the roof supports it would have been easier to put all for on the apex plate, and tighten them down. . Get it on the frame and attach two screw to opposite poles on a roof support. then you go back and align and tighten. I put all 4 of my roof supports up alone. And correct you dont tighten up ANYTHING. And you best have a 18 to 20 ft framing square handy.. And I notice that you dont have the plastic/metal clips that go on the top edge of the roof panels

As a self employed professional handyman, I use this trick all the time, I easily make in a couple hours what most employed tradesmen make in 10 hrs! My hourly rate is $100 an hour for jobs that I do by the hour but jobs like this, I usually double the price of the materials. I just did a contemporary gazebo from Costco and I charged $2500 for the labor and I made that in a couple days minus $400 for my laborer.

Excellent project! Thank you for sharing. A quick question, you guys are worried about snow load, rightfully so but what about high winds? Say around 30-40 mph, do you feel that it would be secure enough for that?

[@pcl1717]

We're located just outside of Toronto, Canada. We've got a similar but larger (10 x 14) Sojag aluminum double roof gazebo on our wood deck. Snow load hasn't been an issue (it's black and the sun helps melt away a lot of the snow). We've also experienced windy days with consistent 70-90km/h (45-55mph) winds. No issues whatsoever.

[@jefflovinfishin621]

What hardware did you use to secure it to the deck? Also is it safe against high winds?

Almost 20 years ago I had to replace the buckets and brackets p\on a mail sorting machine. There were 120 of these and each had a2 10mm bolts. I went over and found a crap 10mm nut driver and sawed the handle off. I then used a battery drill with that "socket and did all tthat work ion jig time. I just hand threaded the bolt on a thread or two and then used the driver to tighten everything down. All the threads were clean because we had just removed the bolts so we didn't need any power to "chase" threads.We got all those done in 2-1/2 hours because of the time saved y using the driver. Work smarter not harder.

Hi, great video! I built one of these on my deck a couple of years ago now, and love it. The one item I need to get is the "winter support pole/jack" (not sure what it is actually called).

I hope you found what you're looking for, but if you didn't- use Google. I tried two different phrases- "pole jack" and "jack pole" and found plenty of choices to pick from.

[@ohu8one221]

So I like the little added bonus for supporting snow with the pole. Can you make any suggestions for hurricane areas. I lost my last gazebo on Beryl in Houston. Well I lost the cover first as it was cloth and shredded like Eddie VanHalen on a good night. So I ordered a new one and tossed up a tarp. Funny thing is I was going to change it this weekend and Rain filled the tarp and now I have a twisted scrap pile of metal so I'm going hard top. Also in this video, I saw you put in a hook in the top center. Can it be changed with a bolt? I like to attach an electrical box to run power and hook up a ceiling fan with an extension to keep it cool. The 12v fans are very light and effective if you add an additional 10-15" extension bar.
