A new deer-proof trellis

We replace an old trellis, expanding it with a gate, and help make the inner yard more deer resistant.

Some after and before photos...

















The new structure is built on concrete and rock work footings, with custom steel brackets.
No wood is in the ground, where rot can be the worst.




























The old trellis was very old, and rotten, almost falling over.





















The main walk to the front door was past the corner of the garage. The new path and gate go where the big Rhodo is in this picture. We transplanted the Rhodo to a nice new spot.


















Below is the new entrance gate, and new pathway.

The iron gate is one the client purchased. Some of the trellis design is to match other garden structures on the property.
