Unloading Of Your Delivery
Due to the nature of this product, delivery will be made to the front of the property to the nearest location. Our drivers will not carry these items inside your home or back garden. 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.

An issue with floor, but this was very quickly resolved. No pre-delivery phone call. A very sturdy product which looks good and very nice to sit in. Will eventually paint mine. Highly recommended.

New Arbour

Parcel very heavy had to unload each parcel and place in garage. One piece had a split in it but was replaced within a few day. Base panel was not put together had to take out the staple nails and use extra screws. Pre drilled holes not very evedent, the wood was very wet, but after a week in the garage it had dried out a bit. Once put together it was very heavy took 3 men and me a woman to get it into the permanent position. It does look very nice, although the seat box does let in water.

lovely product, shame about delivery

Great arbour, easy enough to put together with 2 people. Looks great! This website Is competitively priced too. It should be made clear that you do not get a delivery slot in advance like other companies. After querying with the website, I discovered you get your slot the day before or on the day. Really inconvenient when you work. I was then told I could just request a safe place to leave it, rather than being in, which is what I did. On delivery day the chap phones and tells me an hour until drop off and he won't be able to leave it without a signature....bang goes the safe place! I had to rush around to be in. Probably wouldn't order again due to delivery.

Dorset Arbour with Storage

A great product at a great price. Unfortunately, like others have stated, we did not receive a phone call to arrange delivery, it just turned up and it was just luck that someone was in at the time. Apparently the poor (lone) driver also had a struggle to get it off the wagon and onto our drive. I'm not surprised at this either as I had quite a struggle to then get it from the drive to the side of the house !! Apart from the delivery issues - the Arbour is nice and sturdy, and great to sit in as well as to look at. The assembly instructions took a bit of interpreting, but anybody with some basic DIY skills and common sense should be able to work things out.

Agnes Asked:

What 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

Al Asked:

Is 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

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

Mrs Stone Asked:

Could 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

Sam Asked:

How 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

Sharon O'Donoghue Asked:

Do 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

Diane Asked:

I 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, 2015
Alex Asked:

Will 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

On 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

Linda Rose Asked:

I 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

Evie B Asked:

Could 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

Robert Asked:

How 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.

Ian. Asked:

Are 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.
