Hi
I have received my Gazebo kit (6m x 3.4m) which has x6 solid posts. I am just wondering what peoples advice is on securing the gazebo to the slabs? I have considered various options so far:-
- Bolt down post holders (x4 holes for bolting down) for the x6 posts and secure to the 1inch slabs using concrete bolts (aka thunder bolts) (I did a test with one and it seems to be in there pretty securely)
- Bolt down post holders for the x6 posts and secure to the 1inch slabs using through bolts
- Last resort due to the complexity in levelling, cut/remove slabs and use concrete post-holders
The slabs are very solid and 1inch thick, the sub-base is a sand/cement mix and MOT.
Appreciate peoples thoughts!
Thanks
