General Information

- True DIY-friendly design allows 2 people to build the main gazebo structure within 2 hours.
- Gusseted construction provides ultimate load resistance and sway resistance.
- Gussets eliminate the need for wooden corner gussets and provide a wide open living space appearance.
- Designed to construct a high quality and high strength structure which will last for a lifetime.

Hexagon Size
- The size shown in the Kit Description (e.g., 10ft. to 12ft. Wide Solid Roof) defines the width between two parallel hexagon walls.
- The size of a Partial Hexagon structure is defined by the outer width dimension between two parallel walls of the Partial Hexagon structure.
- To determine what size Hexagon will fit in the space available in your yard, include and add the extra space required for the roof overhangs past the Hexagon walls. We recommend a 6″ to 12″ roof overhang past the Hexagon walls.
- The size of the hexagon you can build employing this bracket kit (measuring across two parallel walls) ranges from 10 feet to 20 feet, depending on the length of the headers.
- The living space you can create ranges between 70 sq. ft to 292 sq. ft.
- Detailed specifications for header length to hexagon size and living area are provided in the Instructions Manual.
Solid Roof Compatible
- The solid roof kit is designed to eliminate all wood joinery skills requirements.
- All roof brackets are designed to provide superior structural support and strength to the structure, far exceeding the strength provided by wood joinery.
- The brackets simplify wood members cutting and adding end treatments.
- The brackets provide precise fit and alignment yielding an architechtural roof structure.

We were already familiar how each steel parts is installed. The Riooudoors website has tons of information and video showing how. We requested custom cut list and instructions before ordering. We recieved them within 1 day in our email. We ordered the kit and the materials from Lowes the same day. When our kit arrived, we were ready to start prepping the lumber and plywood. We spent about 4 hours prepping all lumber pieces. The remainder of that day, we assembled the lower structure and roof framing. Next day, we added plywood and shingles. Everything went together easily and fit well. When things go well, we don’t always acknowledge it because our internal expectation is that everything should go well. But I want to thank Riooudoors for all the effort they put in to make this work so well. We are very happy with our structure. We added a ceiling fan, a bar, and plenty of seating to entertain family and friends. We are already enjoying.
