Comments about Red Cedar Eden 1/2 Picket Rail Bridge:
My 8' bridge with two rails and 1/2 picket was fairly easy to assemble but took several hours to complete because of all the screws involved. I would recommend that you charge your impact driver prior to starting the construction process. Everything fit together as expected and looks really good and the bridge appears solidly built. I am using it as a bridge over a Koi pond in my backyard.
Red cedar is a really soft wood so I hope it does not show excessive dents from normal wear and tear. It has only been up for a few days so I cannot accurately comment on this other than mentioning the one or two times my driver slipped off a screw head, it left a noticable indention in the wood.
Overall, I am very pleased and would purchase from this site again.
My 8' bridge arrived promptly in two packages within one day of each other. It arrived in good condition and was well packed.

Comments about Red Cedar Eden 1/2 Picket Rail Bridge:
I used it across my pond. It had more screws than I had anticipated, but the construction was easy just a little timely. [...] It feels very sturdy and looks beautiful. I would definitely recommend this product and company.

Comments about Red Cedar Eden 1/2 Picket Rail Bridge:
We have a three and half foot separation between the pool deck and the patio deck which is filled with river rock and flowering plants. The length of the bridge is from edge to edge and the span listed is from inside the footing to inside of the other footing. We chose this span because the footing rests about half way on the two decks yet, does not overwhelm either side. Putting it together was a breeze with a screwgun or a drill. You could probably do it with a screwdriver, but i"m not into labor, especially when i"m drinkin' beer on a sunny afternoon. It holds an ample amount of weight and never even quivered when some of my heavier friends were over. The surfaces are smooth and splinter free. Nobody here has a problem walking on it barefoot. The only hard part was figuring how far to space the half pickets. It's not marked on the rails so you have to think this part through. Measure post to post, deduct the total width of all the pickets, and divide by the number of spaces (number of pickets plus one). I did use a 6 inch level to make sure they weren't crooked. All in all, this is a very good product and adds an element of charm to the yard. It arrived well packed and protected. I would heartily recommend this product.

The precut posts did not line up correctly. I had to adjust the gaps to keep from damaging the rails or the posts.
