Can it be put on a deck?

This my OPINION ONLY based upon having one. Mine is attached to my pavers (there are concealed mounting brackets at the base of all four legs of the gazebo) and has stayed put through all four seasons (I live in the midwest) including high winds, heavy rain, hail, and over a foot of snowfall. For a wooden deck - two considerations: 1) This gazebo is heavy - can your deck support this kind of weight AND guests or snow? 2) Support structure - if the wind does kick up and tries to lift the gazebo, is the deck structurally strong enough to stay put?

Mine was placed on a low deck with some reinforcement at joists. It has held up nicely.

Yes it can be put on a deck. I would use long all thread bolts for the legs to hold into place.

Yes, that is the best way to set it up. I put mine on a slab. There are anchor plates provided to secure it to a deck.AL

Hi, Mary! Yes, I placed mine on my deck and have had no problems with it. It doesn't need to be anchored down because it is sufficiently heavy to remain in place. I suppose if you live in an area with extremely strong winds things might be different but it hasn't been an issue for me.

Yes, that is where mine is installed. The four support posts have "L" brackets so that they can be attached to the deck surface for stability.

It will work on a deck but you might need to use an umbrella foot that can be fixed to the deck, instead of the ground anchor that comes with it.We are very pleased with it.

You can attach to a deck by putting screws through the "feet" on the legs (2 holes each) -- make sure you make distance between each set of legs the same, so the feet attachments are square and balanced -- you can also buy the leg WEIGHTS that are available from the manufacturer, or you can devise your own "weights" -- this is a good product, but it must be attached/weighted in any kind of breeze or wind --

No, the deck can remain on, but depending on how deep the snow is, you may wish to remove it.

We have ours on a wooden deck and there's no problem at all. You will love this product!

Sorry, I have not used it on a deck. However, I was just telling everyone at work how much I love it and that day 7 were ordered.

No, I wouldn't think so, it's much too big and bulky. It can be moved around when it's on your porch or deck, but it's pretty heavy. It even comes with holes in the feet if you want to bolt it to the floor. It can come apart if you really want to transport it, but the two pieces of the arm are around four feet long.

Yes you can use it on a wooden deck. We do recommend putting something under it. We sell Deck Protectors. Thank you,The Blue Rooster Co800-303-4312

Yes Marguerite you can, as a matter of fact I use it to keep my Masterbuilt Smoker on, outside on my side porch. The only drawback maybe if the boards of your deck are spaced wider than usual. l This is an excellent product I was very pleased upon recieving. This product exceded my expectations. You can't go wrong.

As long as it is anchored into a wooden deck or lawn timbers as we did it will be fine. If it is just anchored into the ground, then no, I wouldn't do it. We had lawn timbers put into the ground level all the way around and anchored it into that (if you don't have a deck) It was very sturdy all winter....

I placed it on a small aluminum table. And also put it directly on my wooden deck with no problems.

It is going to have to be firmly anchored somehow. This thing is fantastic, well made, very sturdy but all the same it is a giant sail. I would not purchase it unless I had some means of anchoring it down. I myself, built mine over top my back deck and drove screws through the mounting plate through the deck planks. I suppose if you were to put each leg into a hole filled with concrete that would do well.

You could. The flame is about 10 inches above the surface. There is no wind protection for this unit so the slightest breeze makes the flame flutter. Some people put something around the flame if there is wind to keep it from blowing out. I wouldn't do something like that on a wood deck but other than that there shouldn't be an issue with the flame and the wood. Be careful of boil overs.

It's pretty good size, it would depend on the size of your deck but it could work. It is more apt to be used in a yard really...it comes with stakes that you put in the ground to tie the side straps to to keep it on place like a tent.

There is no floor to it, so if your deck has space between the boards that could be an issue. There are loops to stake it down with, so if you could stake it in some way, I think it would be fine.

I purchased this last summer. It comes with stakes and loops to put them through. I've had it set up on my lawn for the last several weeks (just using the stakes) and it hasn't budged, even when we had a brief hale storm. However, if you want to set it up on a deck, then yes you will need something to anchor it to the deck. Also, note it doesn't have a floor which makes sense when you think about it, but surprised me when I opened it.

Yes ours is on a wooden deck and we have no problems. It up high enough away from the wood
