Know before you buy
Western Red Cedar is naturally resistant to rot, decay, and insect damage, making it an excellent choice for long-term outdoor exposure. Untreated Southern Yellow Pine is a more economical option, but it will require a protective stain or sealant to prevent weathering and decay over time.

The arbor arrives partially assembled and requires assembly on-site. You will need basic tools and a helper to assist with positioning the larger components during the build.
