If I used this to attach a pergola to a rooftop(windy) deck would you expect this to be strong enough?

This was the answer to my problem...I bolted to concrete..not sure what structure framing is available to you....but it better be substantial.

No, I would not recommend you doing that with that much weight overhead. Post need to be set in ground properly with concrete if you plan too add that kind of weight overhead and it is safer for you and your family.

It will be plenty strong enough if you can use bolts and nuts to secure it.

Well it is pretty lite weight. It would be ok if the wind does not hit is directly I think. However I think I would anchor it to be sure.

I would say no. unless you have powerful anchors it might hold half that weight.

No, it is not strong enough for that. It is great for what it is meant for...holding nails and screws.

Not sure, I used an older umbrella weight on the bottom to hold it in place. If it will be on a deck, can always screw it down.

Flange is sturdy but I personally wouldn't use for anything higher than deck railing height. I would use metal/steel for Pergola vs. plastic.

Ya, it works well for heavy things. The deck is about average size. My main complaint was that it wouldn't unfold so I had to force it open, which broke it. So if you keep it unfolded it works great. Also it was a little shorter than I liked. Hope that helps.

It would have to be pretty strong! I had a friend build wooden stands for mine instead.

Absolutely. I even stapled mine to stakes for extra support. The material is so strong, the wind had little effect and I was able to reuse the same piece this winter.

I didnt Support it when I first got it and heavy wind it blew over but didnt break. After I mounted it to on one side and a bouganvillia grew up the other side its sturdy and secure. It's pretty thick so if your are mounting the bottom of the legs with or in concrete I would say yes no issue. Or if the fence thats in concete is being attached to the sides of th arbor.

I live in a very windy area and my solar shade is holding up well. I left a little slack when I put it over my over the top of my pergola to give a little on the windy days.

Definitely. It is quite strong. I use it a lot and have had no complaints at all. Regards.

I would imagine so. Frankly, the characteristics of the tree branch will have more to do with this than the swing. Is the branch strong enough? High enough? Do you have a good way of attaching it without harming the tree?

Not sure I would do that. It needs a good stable base. And it will shift a little in the wind.

It is. So if you can put it in a place your confident the wind won't grab it, then yes this will work for you.

Yes but you will need to secure it if there is much of a wind otherwise it will tip over which is what mine did and break.

Yes, I used it to seed my lawn with some sand added for weight on a windy day. Worked fine.
