	Palapa umbrellas are also known as thatch umbrellas, tropical umbrellas, thatch palapa, grass palapa, palapa structure, Fiji palapa, Caribbean palapa and more. Sitting under a Tahiti palapa will instantly make you feel as if you're on a beautiful island beach. There's nothing better than to relax in the shade of a palapa. Now you really can vacation at home! Each Kit Includes Thatch panels and top cone 5''-10'' diameter pole Partially assembled rafters Step-by-step instructions Special composite fascia trim Hardware Our 5-10 inch diameter poles extend to 2 inch diameter pine rafters. The thatching is Tahiti style and comes in easy to install panels. Palapa sizes are an a rough estimate because of the following. Your 8 foot palapa will have a 6 foot diameter frame and we estimate the thatch to overhand the frame by 12 inches on all sides. If you were to measure from one side of the palapa to the other including the thatch you should measure approximately 8 feet. We estimate all of the Tahiti Palapas to have a 2 foot overhang. All our Tahiti Palapas will have a frame 2 feet smaller then the advertised overall size of the palapa. General Tools and materials needed for installations: Usually at least 2 people Drill with screwdriver bit Free standing ladder Level Wheelbarrow and shovel (depending on main pole installation method) Cement (depending on main pole installation method) Installation Difficulty: 2 out of 5 - This means that this type of palapa is one of the easiest to set up and enjoy. Note: Installation difficulty increases proportionally with the size of palapa. Basic Installation Instructions Dig a hole in ground 12'' in diameter or core a hole into your bar surface 5-10 inches in diameter (depending on palapa size) and place main pole in hole Connect pre-assembled rafters to main pole Attach composite fascia trim to ends of rafters (makes structure circular) Place wood ribs over rafters (these keep the thatch up between rafters) Attach thatching to roof frame More detailed instructions come with kit - Thatch Comparison Sheet PDF* Here are a few of the most popular accessories our customers have chosen: Palapa Stand.

This diagram shows the main pole extending approx. 2' below ground level, the standard depth of installation when using concrete to anchor your palapa. Pole length does not affect the base price of the palapa. Fire Retardant: Palapa Structures treats each piece of thatch, front and back, according to the manufacturers' specifications. A Certificate of Fire Retardantcy will be issued, if requested. You may present to inspectors when required. According to the lab testing data available the treated thatch archives a classified A rating. Fire retardant adds a clear coating to the thatch, leaving the surface slightly more reflective.

It is used in many outdoor applications such as, framing, paneling, corral poles, utility poles, and railroad ties. Cedar is known for it's decay-resistance. The wood is used for purposes requiring resistance to weather, such as roof shingles. Cedar wood also naturally repels insects. If you order the cedar all wood in the order that would normally be pine will be changed to cedar i.e. ribs. Only a very small supply of cedar is kept in our inventory. It may take an additional 4-6 weeks to get a cedar palapa if we need to order more cedar. Please call for availability if you need your palapa promptly. Product ..................................

It extends the productive life of lumber by five to ten times. Wood that is exposed to moisture or soil for sustained periods of time will become weakened by various types of fungi, bacteria or insects. Both the light and dark stains provide similar amounts of protection for the wood. Darker color will protect wood better from UV rays. Custom colors available; to order online purchase the dark and contact us right away to change the color. If you select to have the wood treated all the wood will be treated.
