Pre-cut Vs Pre-assembled Kits

WHAT DOES PRE-ASSEMBLED MEAN ?

Timber roof beams, rafters and hips are pre-cut to their specified roof pitch and pre drilled ready for assembly. This is the entry level of every DIY gazebo kit out there on the Market & an important question to ask when shopping around.

DIY Gazebo and Bali Huts take it to the next level. We take the Pre-cut pieces and physically assemble the entire Timber roof frame on our warehouse floor. This allows us to measure all rafter spacings, accurately cut all roof battens, label the structure in our unique numbering sequence and sort out any unforeseen issues before it is sent out to you.

Once complete we dis-assemble and either send it to the staining department or pack it into a flatpack ( depending on your options) Ready for transport or Pickup.

NOTE:  Roof sheeting is not cut to size. It is required to be cut onsite once frame has been installed for it to be 100% accurate.

Pre-assembled Kits

  • Guaranteed Fit & peace of mind
  • Roof Battens already Cut or
    80mm spacings for thatching already marked
    (depending on what kit you have chosen)
  • super fast install on the roof frame
  • line up rafters with measured markings
  • line up screws with drilled screw holes
  • Time on assembling a pre-assembled after posts & roof beams are level:
    Approx 3-4 hours (depending on structure size & your level of experience)

Pre-cut Kit

  • You are required to physically screw and align all beams, rafters & hips correctly & whilst working at heights.
  • battens come at full lengths and will require cutting onsite to be accurate.
  • You are required to measure all rafter, battens & hip spacings evenly and whilst working at heights.
  • You may require adjustments and trimming onsite just like any carpenter installing would have to do.
  • pre-cut is not labelled
  • Time on assembling a Pre-cut Kit after posts and roof beams are level: approx 8-16 hours (depending on structure size & your level of experience)
