This video was amazing. Completed the installation with the help of my wife and 2 teenagers in about 3 hours; about 5 minutes before getting hit with a rain shower! Thanks so much for the helpful tips!

@@AtHomewithLucas got it built took about 2-3 hours with my dad. Have you thought about hanging sting lights from it? I want to just can't seem to figure out a way that looks good haha
@AtHomewithLucasАй бұрын
Oh that's awesome! No, I haven't put any light on it. Should be able to use a command hook to hang them. I used a 3m sticky to put a security camera on one of the polls.

has anyone installed this pergola on a deck, attaching all four posts to Trex composite or similar materials? Any issues, things to look out for? thank you - looks like a fantastic product and priced well below local dealer quote of $28k.
@AtHomewithLucasАй бұрын
I would imagine if they can be bolted to a deck that is just as secure and sturdy as a concern patio, then you should be good. Just wouldn't want the footing to give at all.
@AtHomewithLucasАй бұрын
But I'm not an expert so maybe call a deck company and ask them?
@Pearl3DrummerАй бұрын
Awesome but I think it needs to be anchored/bolted in the ground.
@AtHomewithLucasАй бұрын
Yes 100% you can buy anchors that you hammer into the ground. That's what I did. Mine doesn't even move in high winds tho. If you close the louvers the air just passes right through with no shaking or wobbling. It's really a sturdy pergola.
@pinballguruАй бұрын
Love it. Quick question how did you stabilize the posts?? I see its in the ground not into the concrete. I dont want to pour concrete but love this item.

Would you have happen to have a storm or high winds in your area ? If so how did the pergola hold up? Thanks
@AtHomewithLucasАй бұрын
Yes, we had high winds over 40mph several times with no problems. The pergola didn't even wobble. 👍😁 we also had two tornado watches. This thing weighs around 450 lbs, and with the sturdy build and ground anchors, it is really solid.
@ChrisJustusWX5 ай бұрын
Great review! Thank you! Question, how does it hold up in heavy rain or thunderstorms. Does water leak inside from the roof if it's heavy? Hoping to have a TV underneath. Thank you for your help!
@AtHomewithLucas5 ай бұрын
No, I haven't had any leaking. High winds with heavy rain still no leaking. But if the wind is blowing, the patio will get soaked. That only happened to me twice since putting up the Pergola. Most of the time, more than half the patio is dry.

I don’t know what I am doing wrong. After installing the second louver on the crank, everything works perfectly, but the first louver there is just not enough room for it to lower because it’s hitting the top rail item C. Any ideas?

Might be upside down

It should look like mine in the video and like the one in the instructions.

Is your patio sloped or did you do anything to keep the water from running toward your house? Do all four posts drain from the gutter system?
@AtHomewithLucas3 ай бұрын
You want the pergola to be level and plum. This is important because the pergola is designed to send water to all four posts. If it's off level or sloped, the water won't drain right.
@Aaron-qi2nd3 ай бұрын
@@AtHomewithLucas so the water drains out of the two posts toward your house or are you able to turn the posts so the water drains away? Couldn’t tell if there was on direction the water comes out or if it’s out of all four sides of the post.
@AtHomewithLucas3 ай бұрын
@Aaron-qi2nd it just runs down the posts and drains out the bottom of the four posts. No you can't change any direction.

Do you know if the corner post can be cut down about 6 inches at the bottom and still be able to install the bottom mounting base plates?

That is a good question, but I definitely can't say yes or no. I would guess no. What are you trying to do with it?
@marc785012 ай бұрын
@@AtHomewithLucas just a little too tall for my particular space. Was able to get a quick glimpse in your video of the bottom of the post where you mounted the plate, and it looks like those mounting points run the length of the post from what I could see.

On the side by the house how did you get the connecting strip on the louvers?
@AtHomewithLucas4 ай бұрын
Because mine is not too close to my house, I was able to do the same thing as I did on the other side. If it's too close to your house, just go up through the louvers and connect the strip that way. Or move it out and connect it.
@bobwest61744 ай бұрын
@@AtHomewithLucas thanks, it looked like it was close to the house and I have the same problem. I didn’t know if you can still connect through the louvers or not. I also thought about attaching that side as I go with placing the louvers.

@jersey070425 ай бұрын
1st of all great job on being a man among men. 🤣🤣 We love doing projects solo that require 16 people!!! So just diving a little more into the rain question does it leak when the louvers are closed or does it just run off the side? Can you use it in the rain if you want to or is it a leaky roof? Great job and thanks.
@AtHomewithLucas5 ай бұрын
Zero leaks and no water drops besides the ones that fall into the gutters. We just got 4+ inches of snow covering the top for a few days. But no leaks at all. 💯😁

No it's not really sinking. But we have good drainage so that helps.

Oh also because it's on the outside of our patio, there is concrete just below the soil.
