The birdcage shape is what makes this arbor different from a flat arch: instead of a single plane to climb, the frame curves inward on all sides toward the top, which is suitable for climbing plants to grow up and over from any direction and closes into a canopy rather than a doorway. That enclosed form also creates real usable volume underneath, with large space for putting tables and chairs and enjoying outdoor dining time inside the structure.At 7 by 7 feet on the ground and 8.4 feet tall, with a 3.8 by 6.2 foot entrance, this is a substantial piece, and the engineering matches the size. The high-strength metal frame is sturdy and durable enough that it is not easy to crack, and an anti-rust coating on the surface ensures long-term outdoor use rather than staining after a wet season.Sixteen metal ground stakes come with it, which is what keeps a structure of this height stable and wind resistant. That stake count is proportionate to the frame, spreading anchor points around the full perimeter rather than relying on four corners to hold a tall enclosure against a gust.A hook at the top is designed for hanging flower baskets, lanterns, and more directly overhead in the center. Beyond planting, the frame can be decorated with balloons, LED lights, flowers, or tulle for different scenes. The vintage bronze color and exquisite patterns make the arbor more charming, and it weighs 43.5 pounds. An installation guide and user's manual are included.
