Applicable Environments and Recommendations

Our pavilions are suitable for a wide range of climates, withstanding temperature variations from -20℃ to 60℃. After anti-corrosion and waterproof treatments, they are stable for outdoor use in rainy southern regions, dry northern climates, and mild coastal areas. In regions with heavy rain and humidity, it is recommended to add anti-moisture mats at the base, optimize the roof drainage slope, and regularly check for leaks. For pest-prone areas, additional anti-pest treatments and corrosion protection can be applied. In northern cold regions, it is important to clear snow from the roof to prevent damage to the tiles and cracking of the wood. Pavilions in different styles can be optimized to suit the climate of their respective regions.

The pavilions are highly adaptable to different architectural styles:

Huizhou Style: Uses Bubinga wood, small green tile roofs, and intricate brick and wood carvings, paired with blue brick bases, presenting an elegant and restrained look.

Suzhou Style: Focuses on lightness and grace, with simplified decorations, exquisite wood carvings, and curved flying eaves, suitable for Jiangnan gardens.

Official Style: Features heavy wood, glazed tile roofs, and symmetrical dougong brackets, creating a grand and imposing look, ideal for cultural venues and key scenic areas.

New Chinese Traditional Architectural Pavilion: Integrates modern materials, simplifies some processes, and creates a minimalist and elegant contemporary ancient style, suitable for various modern Chinese settings.

Leisure Pavilion (3000×3000mm): 80×80mm posts, small green tile roof, simple wood carving hanging components, suitable for private courtyards, customizable in Huizhou or Suzhou style.

Scenic Viewing Pavilion (4000×4000mm): 100×100mm posts, featuring relief carvings and beauty lounges. The Huizhou style may include horse-head walls, and the Suzhou style may have curved eaves, suitable for hotel resorts and scenic spots.

Non-standard sizes (3000-8000mm) and classic shapes such as square, hexagonal, octagonal, and double-eave pavilions can also be customized. Wood options include Bubinga, spruce, and elm, and roofing materials can be customized with small green tiles, tube tiles, or glazed tiles.

Installation Instructions and Precautions

The installation requires a concrete base with a depth of ≥300mm. Ensure the posts are vertical, and the mortise and tenon joints are tightly fitted. The roof tiles should be laid according to ancient craftsmanship, ensuring proper waterproofing and precise installation of dougong brackets and hanging components to maintain stability and aesthetic appeal.

For daily cleaning, use dry cloth or water. Avoid using chemical cleaners or leaving water on the wood surface for extended periods. Ensure the roof is regularly cleared of leaves and debris to prevent blocking drainage channels.

Reapply wood wax oil or tung oil every spring and fall to nourish the wood and extend its lifespan. Periodically check the mortise and tenon joints, reinforcements, and dougong components for looseness, and inspect the roof tiles for damage and sealing.

Do not place heavy objects or climb on the pavilion. Avoid scratching the wood surface and carvings with sharp objects, and do not store objects on the roof to prevent damage to tiles and structural deformation.

In winter, use caution when removing snow to prevent cracking of wood or damage to tiles. If the wood becomes moldy, sand it and apply protective oil. Contact professional ancient craftsmen for repair if carvings or tiles are damaged.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is the mortise and tenon structure of the pavilion stable? Can it be used outdoors for a long time?

A: Yes, the structure is stable and designed for long-term outdoor use. The mortise and tenon joints, along with hidden stainless steel reinforcements and optional dougong brackets, ensure structural strength. The materials undergo anti-corrosion and waterproof treatments to ensure a lifespan of 15-25 years with proper maintenance.

Q: Are there differences in craftsmanship and cost between different styles of pavilions?

A: Yes, there are differences. The Suzhou style is more intricate and requires higher craftsmanship, while the Official style requires additional dougong components and glazed tiles, which increases the cost. The Huizhou style is more balanced and offers a good price-performance ratio. We can recommend the best style based on your budget and project requirements.

Q: Can I customize the pavilion to a specific dynasty or style?
