DIMENSIONS & DRAWINGS
Our Kikue's Tea House has a floor security accessory to prevent any accident while you are going in and out of the Gazebo. When you are placing an order, please check this detail. The dimensions of the Gazebo do not included it, it is considered part of the floor deck. If you do not want a floor deck, consider this floor security accessory as an external accessory.
Advanced Options
WALLS/WINDOWS
Opened Walls
(with all panels behind the front panel).
You can also remove the panels and convert to a completely open pavilion
Closed Walls
(with all wall panels side by side)
The Kikue's Tea House features walls that are sliding panels made entirely of windows for maximum light. Each panel sits on an independent rail so that the panels can slide behind one another. Or you can place all the wall panels on one rail to create a solid wall on one plane.
The frame of The Kikue's Tea House is strong enough to allow you to can remove some or all the wall panels to create an open "pavilion" for certain occasions. This is a very versatile design.
Standard Height is 7' (see drawings below), and we can also customize. Just tell us what size and options you want. Prior to building any Gazebo, we provide our customers with a detailed drawing based on their proposed features. This allows you review and make any needed adjustments before the building process begins. Drawings are the perfect way to make certain that every detail has been considered, and that your Gazebo will seamlessly meet your dreams.
Sample of Kikue's Tea House Wall
The windows are semi-transparent tinted bronze acrylic allowing visibility while adding privacy and blocking the sun. Acrylic will not fade.
If you want a gazebo without any walls, just the open pavilion-style framework and roof, please contact us for pricing (you will save between 20% to 30% depending on the size).
SCREEN WALL PANELS
Also available for purchase are screen wall panels for your structure. These can be popped in place of or behind the acrylic window panels: they are the same size. The acrylic window panels each slide on their own individual rails and can also be removed. If you would like to configure a design including screen walls, the gazebos up to 10' x 10' in size use 3 panels per wall (12 total panels), while gazebos larger than 10' x 10' use 4 panels per wall (16 total panels).
OPEN GAZEBO OPTION
If you're looking for an open-air wooden pavilion, you can order The Kikue's Tea House without the wall panels at a 25% cost reduction. Contact us and we'll be glad to help you.
Assembly Instructions for: Kikue's Tea House
All You Need is a Few Tools and a Friend.
Assembly is best done by two people over a half to full day depending on size. Pergolas require a ratchet, wrench, hammer and ladder. Some assemblies may require a drill to attach the posts into concrete. As with all of our products, we preassemble pergolas in our shop to ensure everything fits together. All hardware is included with clearly labeled parts. We also include detailed step-by-step instructions.
Take a look below at our assembly instructions for specific details. If you'd like a concrete pour to hold the posts, your project will require an additional half day prior to assembly. Please complete the concrete pour a few days prior to assembly to allow the concrete to cure.
Installation Help.
Special skills are not required to re-assemble our pergolas. If you would like help, just let us know. We have our own team for installations in California, Nevada and Southern Arizona, and a network of local contractors we recommend for farther afield.
Care: Your Forever Redwood Furniture will last for decades in year-round weather without maintenance.
Depending on the wood grade you choose, you should expect your furniture to last 10-40 years without maintenance even in climates with harsh, year round conditions.
Being outside year-round is rough on all wood finishings. The surface absorbs UV rays and pollution, there is a constant variation in moisture and temperature, and oxidization occurs. Over the years, most woods degrade and decay, and the surface color will slowly fade towards a silver patina. This is not the case with Forever Redwood. The silver patina is surface deep (less than 1/64") and is not indicative of decay. Your set will last decades and will not compromised in any way by surface color changes. We keep our display items as is without refinishing as examples to show off the natural aging process (we like the patina!).
Although Forever Redwood is maintenance-free, we recommended that you take a few minutes as needed to clean by either hosing down and/or brushing/dusting away accumulated debris (no soap or chemicals needed). If you’d like to keep your set looking its best for decades, please go to: Care and Finish.
