Assembly Difficulty Rating:

Low: 2 to 3 hours to assemble and install
Medium: 3 to 5 hours to assemble and install
High: 6 to 9 hours to assemble and install

Assembly and installation times are approximate. Our estimates are based on a "beginner" skill set.

Vinyl posts and pieces, unlike wood, are perfect.  This perfection makes installation easier, because the parts fit. (i.e., not "almost fit").   Lattices fit into a vertically grooved frame on most arbors and trellises, which is secured directly to the post.   All hardware is stainless steel.

If you can operate a cordless drill, measuring tape, level and shovel – you can install New England Arbors products. Illustrated instructions and a dedicated team of customer service representatives can support and guide you with any of your concerns. If you'd rather have a professional handle the installation, use our $25 discount at Mr. Handyman - you'll see the link on our "thank you" page, after placing your order.
