how would you secure on a paver patio?

We put ours on a concrete slab, we cemented the bottom post in center of a cinder block and painted the cinder block white and planted flowers in the other cinder block openings and it actually was safe and secure through the winter storms and did not pull apart even with the high winds we had

I just don't know but really didn't want to just say that! I have to imagine there is someway todo this with research on the internet. Good luck, I love my pergola - don't give up on it!

We had two of our uprights were anchored to pavers....just drilled in with concrete anchor and screw...we are in a windy area,and have had no issues

We bought brackets and put 4x4 posts inside the pvc posts and then bolted the brackets to the posts and to our concrete patio. You could cut square holes in pavers then concrete your 4x4 posts in ground then slide your pvc posts over the wooden 4x4's

My patio is covered ... and it works fine. In fact, having a cover limits the paths birds can use to get in, and it might work better.

Yes, that is the best way to set it up. I put mine on a slab. There are anchor plates provided to secure it to a deck.AL

We built a pad with pavers; then on top of that, we built a pad made of treated 2x4s and plywood. That way we were able to screw the shed to the plywood for stability. We also painted the 2x4s and plywood with deck paint, which will hopefully help it last.

You will need to weight it down if you use it as is. The large concrete patio pavers will hold it down. I didn't find that very appealing, because you would need it to be on a very flat surface which meant I had to put it on the patio and it took up a lot of room. My husband installed a pipe with a larger diameter than the umbrella pole, into the ground right outside the patio perimeter. He concreted it in and the umbrella is much more stable and doesn't take up any floor space. We can remove it easily when we do not want it outside in the weather. So we do not use the base that it came with. I really like it for the purpose I need it for, and I am replacing one I had before this. I am pleased with it. I hope this helps you.

You would have to be creative to keep it from flying away, but I think it could be done with concrete bases or sand bags. Drilling into the concrete for little flush sunken anchors if it is your own concrete wouldn't be to difficult and would end up being even better than ground stakes.

This item is heavy and quite stable...substantial weight...if one wishes to secure to the ground, there are plenty of options...you might use re bar ..pounded into the earth , on either side, or metal tent stakes, secured with short bungees, etc, etc...I have one set secured between cedar planters, filled with dirt, and plants..my second one is secured to a black metal , wire bookcase , secured with bungees...I have never regretted purchasing two sets from Amazon, owned both for six months...this is a top quality purchase, be assured..best of luck.

We have ours on cement for bike storage. I would think so if put on grass and auger's used to secure.

I have a patio in my back yard. I nailed a cross beam between two long parallel beams that hold patio roof. With chain or heavy duty rope, I tied the punching bag and hook over the cross beam that I nailed earlier. That should do it.

We always set ours up on the patio and use bungee cords (2) to secure it from the top of the screen to the deck top. We only leave it up for the duration of the party due to possible issues with wind. Any reasonable wind could tweak it and cause damage. The framing is very solid, however one never knows when that freak wind may blast through.

It needs to be staked down as otherwise it can tip over. You could probably secure to fence some way

The instructions clearly recommend using soil anchors (available on Amazon). When properly installed, the structure will withstand storm winds (mine went through Sandy on the Jersey shore with no problems except occasional slight lifting of an inch or two in one corner.)

I think you would need to create a bottom of some sort or you will run the risk of leaking onto the patio. You might also consider adding peat moss regularly when you add other ingredients ...it absorbs a lot of moisture.

I would use metal poles with in ground sleeves. 2 inch or larger square tubing. Also guy wires under and over the sail will keep the sail from taking off.

We don't secure it more than keeping the cover closed. It sits out on the patio, but we have a block wall around the yard. We've had steel and canvas patio chairs blow into our pool but the grill has never moved.

The posts that hold each section together are long enough to anchor into the ground, if you are on grass or dirt. I put mine on or back patio. I follows the joints or crease of the concrete and anchored them in that. Believe it or not, that was just deep enough to hold the fencing up. I love those fencing! Works great.

Can be setup on deck , pavers , patios . We use sand bags to anchor only if the weather calls for wind
