Gazebos

A gazebo for a summer residence is not just a small architectural form, but also an extremely functional space for relaxation. Such modern gazebos are most often installed in the courtyard of a private house, significantly increasing the comfort of living for its residents. A properly designed gazebo project perfectly complements the landscape. The best option would be to entrust this matter to experienced specialists who will clearly determine the type of structure, help to choose the optimal material for construction and perform all stages of work qualitatively and efficiently.

Features of making gazebos: main varieties

Garden gazebos are primarily protection from rain, ultraviolet rays and wind. From this point of view, as well as from the structural properties, such structures are conventionally divided into three types:

• Open gazebos. Another name is pergolas. They are structures with openwork design, often have lattice walls. Another option is the presence of only canopies on poles.
• Closed gazebos. They are also pavilions. Outwardly, they resemble a small house, equipped with windows, doors, sometimes even having heating or a fireplace. Pavilions can be used throughout the year, but to stay in them in winter, you will need high-quality insulation of the walls and roof. You also need to take care of ventilation.
• Semi-closed. These are gazebos for the yard with two or one wall, which will protect from winds and slanting rain. In addition, such structures have railings. This option is considered the most popular, as it provides the optimal balance between a feeling of closeness to nature and basic comfort.

Custom-made gazebos: choice of material

When designing a facility, the greatest attention is paid to the materials from which the garden gazebo will be built. Traditional raw materials are metal, brick or stone and wood. Each of them has its own characteristics:

• Wood is an aesthetically attractive material. The most commonly used is a coniferous beam with a thickness of 100x100 mm. It necessarily requires treatment against fire and rot.
• Metal - welded or forged gazebos. The material is not afraid of fire, lasts quite a long time, but at the same time requires protection against corrosion. Therefore, it is important to paint the gazebos in a timely manner and treat them with anti-corrosion agents.
• Capital summer barbecue gazebos are built of stone or brick. Such structures require the installation of a solid foundation, since they are heavy.

Metal gazebos are the perfect way to decorate a plot

Metal gazebo - a choice for decades. Their service life is 30-50 years. Most often, a frame is made of this material by welding metal (welded gazebos), namely - a profile pipe with a wall thickness of 2 mm. When manufacturing metal gazebos, they can be sheathed with other materials:

• polycarbonate gazebos - to preserve the lighting inside;
• from wood - for classic models;
• corrugated board gazebos - to create blank walls.

The main advantages of a metal gazebo frame include strength and durability, fire safety, easy installation of gazebos, various design options and inexpensive maintenance.

Turnkey gazebos: stages of work

Installation of metal gazebos on a turnkey basis is an ideal option for those who value time. The company LLC "RBK ALBA" offers this service, providing for the construction of a gazebo for recreation according to the following algorithm:

• design - the type of street gazebo is determined, materials are selected, a construction plan is developed;
• territory preparation - the site is cleared, the territory is marked;
• foundation arrangement (if necessary, a gazebo with a barbecue is built) - the type of structure is selected;
• frame construction - pillars and beams are installed, or a metal gazebo is welded to order;
• cladding - the gazebo frame is sheathed with the selected material, the roof is covered with roofing materials.

Next, windows and doors are installed in accordance with the gazebo design - if this is provided for by the project. After that, the gazebo with a roof is equipped inside. An appropriate landscape design is created around it.
