Assemble Your Heirloom's Own Metal Trellis System™
Read all instructions carefully before beginning installation.
Supplies Needed:
- 7/64” Drill Bit, or similar
- Drill
- Extended Philips Head Screwdriver Bit
- Level
- Tape Measure
- Painters Tape & Marker
- Step Ladder, if necessary
- Find a location: Choose a space that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight, that has enough room for the trellis, and can support its weight. Mounting hardware is provided for installation on flat wooden surfaces. Other applications may require specialized hardware (not included).
- Plan the installation: Begin at one of the upper corners, installing one of the upper brackets using a single screw. Using a 7/64” drill bit, drill pilot holes before installing each screw. For the best accuracy, drill each pilot hole as needed, instead of drilling all eight pilot holes at once.
- Position brackets: install the second bracket 16-20” away from the first bracket, using a level to verify that the two upper brackets are at the same height.
- Assemble grids: Install the plastic connector plugs provided by gently pressing them into the open ended tubes of the trellis grids. Connect the grids together, ensuring both panels face the same direction.
- Hang: Attach the connected grids to the upper brackets to determine the appropriate mounting locations for the two lower brackets.
- Mark & mount: Hold one lower bracket where it will be installed and mark the location for pilot holes. Drill the pilot hole and mount the bracket with a single screw. Remove the trellis grid and repeat for the second lower bracket.
- Finish installing: Remove the trellis grid from the brackets, carefully placing it in a safe location in order to avoid damaging the plastic connecting plugs. Finish installing all of the mounting brackets while the trellis grid is out of the way.
- Finalize installation: Rehang the trellis on the fully installed brackets.
