First off, allow us to say thank you for the investment you have made in one

Planning & Preparing
The Freeemont Pergola is designed to be attached to an existing structure
such as your house. Please follow this intructions closely and plan ahead to
avoid confusions and issues during installation.

See pages 7, 8 and 9 for more details.

You should also check to verify
