A flat top instead of the usual curve gives this 85 inch arbor a squarer, more architectural profile that suits modern fencing and clean gravel paths. Solid fir wood forms the posts and beams, metal hardware reinforces the joints, and the gate marks the boundary between lawn and vegetable patch. The entry measures 49 by 82 inches, so a wheelbarrow clears it easily. Side trellises run up both uprights for climbing roses or clematis, and the top beams hold garlands, fabric or lanterns for a ceremony. The complete unit occupies 60 by 24 inches of ground and weighs 24.5 pounds, light enough for two people to carry into position before it is fixed down. Dark brown paint keeps the grain visible while shielding the wood outdoors.
