Can this frame be bolted directly to treated wood without causing corosion? I asked on their web site and have receive no response at all.

The kit does come with attachments for the base of the frame where it can be bolted to its foundation. We actually put ours on a foundation of concrete blocks and are planning to bolt to that. I don't see why it would cause any corrosion either since there is no need to drill into or alter the frame with the foundation anchors provided

Hi Jason, I have had mine bolted to pressure treated lumber for 3 years now and no issues. Just have a hack saw ready, nothing will fit perfectly ;-)Dennis

Mine has been connected to this type of wood for almost a year now. So far it isn't showing any signs of corrosion. We have had a particularly wet spring so far and the only problem I've had is the vent leaks

I really don't get the people claiming their greenhouse was blown down. I live in Florida and we recently had some pretty crazy weather. We have not yet bolted or tied down our greenhouse and so had gotten a little worried when the winds got crazy, but that greenhouse didn't budge an inch. I was skeptical when we first bought the greenhouse about a year ago but w are really happy with it. Its much more durable than i had originally thought it would be.

No, it comes with numerous metal flats, one side with a lip and a pre-drilled hole in the middle. These clip into the aluminum base rail of the greenhouse frame (which can be placed on a treated 4x4 base and are then securely screwed into the base. I've had mine up for over a year, it's withstood at least 50mph winds with no problem. http://imgur.com/0Dlx2MD

I don't know. I bolted mine to a wood deck, but it did not stay up long enough to find out. It was blown over in way less than 50 mile an hour winds.

I would say yes. I used stained boards left over from a previous deck and the clips are doing fine. The frame don't have mounts to bolt into wood. The clips and the frame are the same heavy duty aluminum.

It comes with clips that bolt it down. I used plywood and screwed it down to that, with 4x4's under the plywood. You have to provide your own screws for the clips.

They will never answer you, sorry to say. We attached the metal frame (in the kit) to treated a treated redwood frame that was cemented into the ground with rebar. Make your redwood frame to fit the metal frame and then treat it with a waterproof sealer. You can also paint on black waterproofing paint to the part that will sit in the ground for extra protection. Hope that helps.

It's very flimsy material and a huge pain to build. I'd check out the green houses at Harbor Freight

I had got the product and it doesn't need holes to be installed. but when I saw my friend's door frame I knew that this product would hurt the frame a lot. the frame will be broken in a long term. but if you don't mind, it would still work alright.

Yes, the headboard is compatible with standard frames. Bolts are included to attach to your existing frame. It assembles quickly and easily and is quite sturdy once assembled.

This does not have an option to be bolted. The clamp is welded on to the support pole. The only other option would be to try the free stand version. Once I find my instructions, I would be happy to share them with you.

I didn't have any problems at all. I loosely attached all the screws before tightening any thing down. I could see how there could be issues if someone tightened down one side in which case they wouldn't have any slack to line things up. Also I'm sure you could probably strip the wood if you over-tightened the screws.

Per Classic Store Fixtures.. There are tow "J" hooks that go around the frame.. Its very hard to describe..but if you email me through amazon. I can send you a picture of how it goes. thank Ben ELKins

I would try to contact the manufacturer. I have not used it on wood that has been treated for heat/water resistance. There may be chemicals in the two that do not mix well.

Unfortunatley, we do not have any suggestions. It would depend on how think your wood is that you are bolting this to. You may want to check with a local hardware store.

It mounts to wood flat surfaces with wood screws internal to the box to prevent access or removal without combination. Good question on mounting to metal door frame. I would not be confident of any type bonding agent as it could be overcome by chemical reactions. If the door can be drilled through, I would recommend machine screws that are long enough to go through the door where lock washers and nuts could be used.

I can see how that would work where the arch comes together in the middle. I actually added another short bolt to each side for more security. Wish it was deeper, so I bought two of them to make it twice as large, putting them back to back and painted them gloss black, did not like the rustic rust color.

I just found the following info on the Home Depot site1. Made from UV protected simulated wood that requires no annual maintenance2. Powder-coated steel frame provides a weather resistant finish

I do not see one reason not to use this frame. It is sturdy, mine has been through a lot of roughness.

Good question Rhiannon .. but I don't remember and no longer have the instructions. I seem to remember the wholes were all "pre drilled" therefore leaving me to believe "no" .. but if someone is "finish carpenter" handy, you may be able to. Sorry I can't be of more help. I do know I LOVE this little cabinet. Maybe ask the seller? Good luck

If you would want to do that, you would want to weather-proof it. In other words, you should treat it just as you would any other piece of art, because it is wrapped around a frame. Over time if the weather is extreme the wood frame would degrade, as probably would the picture itself. So, unless you can weather-proof it, I would highly recommend not putting it in an outside environment.

They bolt onto the frame, they match the wholes in the frame. They haven't changed the frame that I know of.

Mine came with all the hardware needed to bolt the frame to it. Be care not to over tighten because the frame is wood. But it needs to be tight. Its a good idea to check it about a week after use and re tighten as needed. A little tighter than the previous time until it stays tight. Just a suggestion is all.

This is a bit of a mixed answer - It CAN work with just about any metal frame, but it will be a lot easier with some frames compared to others. The support does include the necessary hardware to bolt to a metal frame. The tricky part is that with a wood frame, you simply screw the cross rails down where they rest. Most metal frames will have some holes pre-drilled in them along the rails, but the support may not perfectly line up with all of those holes since it has a fixed spacing between cross rails. With a metal bed frame, the options usually are: 1) Rest the "lip" of the cross supports on the inside of your bed rail. Bolt down as many holes as will line up, leave the others resting. This isn't the most secure option, but will still provide good support. 2) Drill 1/4" holes in your bed frame using a bit made for metal which will line up with the ends of the cross supports, so you can bolt down all six points. Using this with a metal frame is definitely possible and will provide good support, but it won't be quite as easy as using it with a wood frame. If your metal frame already has some pre-drilled holes, you may want to look at a support such as the Mighty Lift FQU-11 which doesn't have a fixed spacing - This will let you line up the cross rails with the pre-drilled holes.
