Genius! I've been trying to think of a way to anchor my gazebo to my Trex deck without damaging the decking. This is the perfect solution!

[@beezer5623]

great idea, use a nice planter, put rocks in then fill with dirt. :)

[@homeandabout]

great idea thank you for sharing

[@beezer5623]

@@homeandaboutif you do it, plant like citronella or lavender maybe. Something that bugs hate. You’ll be surrounded by a natural bug barrier 😊

Wow! Wish I saw this idea years ago. We’ve been through 3 gazebos. One looked exactly like yours. The first 2 sat on our wooden deck, never got around to anchoring it down. The third one we sat on the cement patio. Again didn’t get around to securing it. And the wind destroyed them one destroyed by snow on cover. Each time we purchased a heavier one. We just put up a 400 lbs metal roof last week. Will secure it tomorrow to the patio with proper Anchors.

Great idea. Just put up a gazebo today, and was telling my wife I was thinking of doing something similar to this. Nice to see it works. Great video, thank you!

[@homeandabout]

Very welcome very easy.

This is genious! Even a ceramic pot filled with cement and some pebbles/lights on top. Thank you for this. I am now looking at getting a pergola/gazebo to erect outside my back door on a windy area. Nancy T

Oh my goodness what a fantastic idea! I bought a gazebo.. it looked fantastic. Had it up for one day 😢 and naively just attached some cable ties to the gazebo legs and some of the garden chairs 😭 we had an unexpected stormy night and the gazebo was broken and upturned with the chairs hanging on for dear life 😂😂 I can laugh now but was devastated 😢 looking forward to buying another in a few weeks and definitely using your idea ❤

Thank you. I just bought a canopy gazebo and was worried how I could keep it in place with the recent rains and high winds in Delaware.

Thankyou so much this video is exactly what i was looking for. Im a renter and i want a nice backyard but i need to be able to take it with me if i move and no one had a video like this

[@homeandabout]

thank you for sharing

[@cynthiamaddox4134]

Same here! This is a great idea

[@SBART1]

Thanks

[@GTFC_]

Great idea I'm just looking up gazebos so I'll definitely do this

[@homeandabout]

Yes works great. Enjoy.

[@kevinalves2029]

That's a great idea! Thanks!

[@homeandabout]

your welcome enjoy

[@hula62]

Brilliant! Thank you! I live in a rented home and don't want to ruin the cement.

[@homeandabout]

Happy to help!

[@shawncrocker7037]

Thanks. This is my solution! I have only grass with potentially bed rock close to the surface and am also not positive where I want the gazebo to stay. I will probably get some huge pots and fill with sand and some dirt near the top for flowers.

[@sleepingeasy]

so easy and looks great with some pots enjoy

[@oscars2441]

I would follow you anywhere sir

[@uglybobhere]

Clever 😊

[@yusmilkacorrea839]

[@homeandabout]

thank you

[@protatz]

Thanks man! In a rental but the lower tiers aren't holding up long enough ✌️✌️🖤💯

[@AA-yx2tn]

Idea is good, but only to use pressure treated wood for outdoors.

[@suneelkanuri]

May I ask, what kind of gazebo is it ? Perhaps a link to it. It looks cool. I also would appreciate a link to the canvas as well. Thank you.

[@homeandabout]

its a suntek from amazon

[@PriscillaRobinson-mz1nq]

Too bad my gazebo legs are narrow so this wouldn’t work for my situation.😢

[@narski7977]

Nice video, do you still know what model the canopy is and where it was purchased?
Thank you Tom

[@homeandabout]

on amazon iti is 12x10 forgot the brand but still sold on amazon

[@joerafati]

What about using plants pots instead of bricks?

[@homeandabout]

yes anything with weight works my planters are on the outside so the get watered

[@cherylkitchen]

I'm in coastal Virginia where we get hurricanes. This solution is terrifying to me. We had 45mph sustained winds just yesterday with gust to 85mph. Our neighbor's small gazebo is in the woods. I'm glad it went that direction and not my direction. I'm getting ready to put in a hardtop aluminum gazebo. I've spent the entire morning at the county building office. These things become kites in wind. I am using spiral augers into the ground with the gazebo bolted to a steel plate that is the top of the auger. The auger is 36 inches long and there will be 6 used for each leg of the 14X22 gazebo. I wish you luck and safety.

[@smalljobs3]

your correct the neighbor behind me had his hard topped canopy rip out of the ground and into another neighbors yard in the winter or if we get a hurricane it takes me 5 min to remove canvas top 35 mph 40 mph no problems

[@user-ch9zs5bq6g]

Just use that massive, heavy pot plant on it....

[@RPMusicInc]

That’s where I thought he was going with it. I was like of course duh giant plants lol nope
