Review on Copper Versaille Arch For Stunning Garden Décor: Gardman 8241 by Luis Shreibman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Wonderful! good for me

I am really impressed with this arch! After reading other reviews I was kind of skeptical about the color. Some reviewers said it was a bright green but I ordered it anyway, after all it was going in a garden. Not to worry it is a beautiful green and black mixture and honestly I can only tell if it's green if I am close upon it.Another feature is how easy it is to put together. I didn't need my husband's help until I was ready to place it on the stakes. I assembled the sides by laying it on the ground and definitely near the area where it was to be installed. You will need a regular screw driver or phillips head and also pliers to help tighten the bolts.The instructions on how to place it on the stakes was a little confusing to me, especially about the measurements. What I did was place the stakes approximately 48 inches apart (length) and approximately 20 inches (depth). I had hubby hold the arch while I guided the legs into the stakes. They were a little wide so I pulled up the stakes with legs attached and readjusted them until they were straight and then placed them in the ground. My soil was a little damp and not hard so it was easy to work with.There is enough room under the arch for a bench no more than 48 inches. I hear there is a bench that you can buy to match. If you do buy the bench be aware of the predrilled holes on the side of the arch. Make sure that they are in the right position to attach the bench. I always like to read reviews for tips and problems so hopefully this will help another consumer.

Pros
  • Gardman
Cons
  • The arch may not be suitable for coastal areas due to saltwater exposure and corrosion
