1. screw the base frame together
Screw the substructure timbers together as shown. Use the angle connectors (40 x 40 mm) and the screws (35 mm long). We recommend pre-drilling the screw holes with an HSS drill (4 mm diameter). Please refer to the technical drawing in the PDF building instructions.
2. cutting the planks to size
The decking boards are slightly oversized by a few millimetres. Place the boards against the base frame and measure the exact board length you need. The plank length on which our planning is based can be found in the technical drawing in the PDF building instructions.
3. screw the planks onto the base frame
Start by screwing the planks to the sides and top of the base frame. Allow the base frame to protrude 5 mm (use spacers) above the top edge of the first plank. Pre-drill the screw holes with a countersink drill (4.5 mm diameter). For the plank lengths used, please refer to the technical drawing in the PDF assembly instructions.
4. fasten all planks at the side
As described in step 2, attach all the boards to the sides of the base frame of the raised bed. Use the spacers (5 mm) to maintain a gap between the boards.
5. cover the top with floorboards
Once all the boards have been screwed to the sides, screw the top frame of the raised bed to the boards. Use countersinks and spacers here too.

The common features of our selected decking woods: ✓ high durability ✓ very good technical properties ✓ sustainable origin. Here is an overview of the special features:
Cumaru
✓ Best durability
✓ Particularly robust and scratch-resistant
✗ Partly rough surface
✗ High force development
Tip: Planks should be sanded after weathering.
Garapa
✓ smooth surface
✓ homogeneous, light color
✗ Ferrous materials lead to discoloration
✗ Unscrewed Tendency to warping
Tip: Patio cleaning removes discoloration and professional interim storage prevents warping.
Jatoba

Tip: Lay decking boards together.
Unterkonstruktion: Holz statt Aluminium
Für diese Terrassendiele empfehlen wir Ihnen eine Unterkonstruktion aus Hartholz mit sehr guter Resistenz (mindestens Klasse 1-2). Von einer Aluminium-Unterkonstruktion raten wir ab, da hier durch die Steifigkeit des Materials das Risiko abreißender Schrauben zu groß ist.
