Unloading Of Your Delivery

When the item is delivered on a pallet, the pallet and packaging are non-returnable and the goods can only be manoeuvred on a flat and level surface (i.e. not a gravel driveway) by a pallet truck. On some occasions the driver will split the package to assist with manoeuvring of the item. Once you are happy, we will ask you to check the condition of the goods and sign for the delivery.
Assembly
All Zest products are sold as self-assembly unless otherwise stated. Products may require the use of a drill and drill bits to pre-drill the screw holes before construction.

Dorset storage arbour
Bit rough around the edges and also the wood was very wet when unpacked. Looks lovely now it is in position and has been painted . Just waiting for good weather to use it. Was very heavy for 1 delivery driver.

Exactly what I wanted
Despite being promised a phone call and two man delivery, it turned up without the call, one man and no trolley. Luckily he was very strong and my son erected it next day. He did comment on the split ends, which were liable to give someone a nasty jab, but fixed it all. Today I went out to check and the storage box has some water in it so am planning to keep my cushions and cover indoors until the sun comes out. May even tack some plastic inside the box so things can be left safely inside or drape a cover over the seat.Otherwise delighted and looking forward to spending happy hours reading and surveying the bird life!

Dorset Arbour with Storage Seat
We found Product to our satisfaction, But instruction leaflet needed more print ink, and the Screws were short in number to assemble. However we did get a further delivery of the missing Screws answered to our complaint.We also then ordered The Planter with Trellis, and we did experience the same Screws short in number, apparently someone cannot count with their Packing procedures. But nevertheless we love the products.

Does the Dorset Storage Garden Arbour come as a flat pack?
We Replied:Dear Steve Thank you for your question. The Dorset Storage Arbour will arrive in three flat packs. It will come with all the fixings and fittings and the instructions. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Olivia Malpas
Saturday 24th, May, 2014What product should be used to 'paint' the Dorset Storage Garden Arbour?
We Replied:Dear Agnes Thank you for your question. We suggest either a Ronseal or Cuprinol exterior wood paint. The arbour however does not need a preservative as it is already pressure treated. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Nathan James Dodd
Saturday 28th, June, 2014Is it necessary to anchor the arbour into the ground?
We Replied:Dear Alan Thank you for your question. It is not necessary to anchor the arbour into the ground as it is stable enough to stand alone. It will only possibly fall over in very high winds. I suggest sinking the feet into the ground a few inches if you have an open garden which suffers from high winds. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Ellie Goodall
Tuesday 14th, April, 2015How waterproof is the storage box?
We Replied:Dear Thom Thank you for your question. It is waterproof. We have them in our garden centre and they stay dry all year round. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Nathan James Dodd
Monday 04th, May, 2015Could you please tell me how big the gap is between the floor and the bottom of the storage box?
We Replied:Dear Mrs Stone Thank you for your question. The gap is approximately 6.5cm. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Nathan James Dodd
Monday 25th, May, 2015How is the storage box accessed, from the top by lifting the seat up or does it pull out?
We Replied:Dear Sam Thank you for your question. The storage box is accessed from the top by lifting the seat up as you suggest. It is hinged at the rear. I hope this helps. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Robert Hall
Thursday 02nd, July, 2015Do I need to make a proper base for the Dorset Arbour or can I put it onto the ground and then plant around it?
We Replied:Hi Sharon Thank you for your question. The Dorset is quite heavy and needs the support of a hard standing base. Soil or turf is not good enough as, when the earth gets wet in the winter, one corner will inevitably sink and buckle. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Robert Hall
Thursday 30th, July, 2015I want to have an arbour on a concrete yard. There is also a slight incline. Will this be ok to do - I think they look sturdy enough to not tip over? If not, what do you recommend?
We Replied:Dear Diane Thank you for your question. We do recommend placing the arbour on a flat surface. However, if there is a slight incline, you could add more support in some way to the legs. Kind regards Lauren Bilboe
Thursday 06th, August, 2015Will the item be ok to position on top of decking?
We Replied:Dear Alex Thank you for your question. Provided the decking is sturdy and level this will be fine. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Robert Hall
Friday 14th, August, 2015On the picture of the men sitting in the Dorset Arbour the sides look bowed, are they vertical?
We Replied:Dear Jenny Thank you for your question. I can reassure you that hey are vertical. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Zach Nicholson
Saturday 05th, March, 2016I have the Dorset Arbour but can't find a protective cover, do you stock them?
We Replied:Dear Linda Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, we do not offer a specific cover for this item. Your best option is to purchase a universal waterproof cover that will fit over the item. Alternatively you can purchase tarpaulin from a local hardware or DIY store and this should effectively do the same job as a cover. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Zach Nicholson
Sunday 03rd, April, 2016Could you clarify whether the 5' 2" width is the main body or the overhang of the roof past the side panels?
We Replied:Dear Evie Thank you for your question. The 1.568m width given includes the overhang and shows the overall maximum width. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Lauren
Monday 18th, July, 2016How do you remove the storage box lid when the assembly instructions show it screwed down?
We Replied:Dear Robert Thank you for your question. The storage box lid is hinged from the back and so opens up from the front like a hinged lid. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Lauren.
Wednesday 25th, March, 2020Are the holes pre-drilled for assembly?
We Replied:Dear Ian Thank you for your question. This arbour does not have pre-drilled holes. A 3mm drill bit is required in order for you to drill all screw holes before construction. Should you wish to contact us further or to place an order, please call us on 0121 355 7701. Thank you for using our online Q&A system. Kind regards Lauren
