Synthetic Thatch Top Cone Synthetic Thatch Panel Synthetic Thatch Close Up

Top View of a Tiki Hut Diagram Our 5-6 inch diameter poles extend to a steel frame. The thatching is synthetic thatch replacement. We've looked long and hard for a good synthetic thatch and finally found it. The synthetic thatch looks real, but has the benefit of low maintenance and longevity.

The top of the Synthetic Tiki Hut is round and the legs beneath form a square.

The leg spacing is from the center of the leg to the center of the other leg.

 

General Tools and materials needed for installations:

Usually at least 2 people
Drill with screwdriver bit (a hand screwdriver will work, but takes longer)
Free standing ladder
Level
Wheelbarrow and shovel (depending on main pole installation method)
Cement (depending on main pole installation method)
* Sockets and wrench

Installation Difficulty:

4 (or 5) out of 5 - This means that this type of palapa is one of the most difficult to set up.
*Note: Installation difficulty increases proportionally with the size of palapa.

  2. Assemble top portion of hut separately and place on top of bottom portion
  3. Secure top portion to bottom portion

Tiki Hut Diagram

This diagram shows the main pole extending approx. 2' below ground level, the
standard depth of installation when using concrete footings to anchor your palapa.

Pole length does not affect the base price of the palapa.

Fire Retardant:

Fire retardant is used during the manufacturing of synthetic thatch, and thus is naturally fire resistant. There is no need for more fire retardant applications.

Wood Type:

Pine is a tough, strong, maintenance-free building material used in landscape
construction for its natural appearance and adaptability to a variety of architectural styles.
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.

Wood Treatment:

Treating lumber provides long-term resistance to organisms that cause deterioration. 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.

Rib Options:

The upper assembly of the Synthetic Tiki Hut is welded steel. The thatch panels clip onto this frame without the need of extra trim.

Thatch Roof Options:

Each Synthetic Palapa comes with one layer of thatch as a standard option. One layer of thatch is all that's needed on the Synthetic palapa.

Some of the benefits of using this rope are that it resists sunlight, is made of natural fiber, and is biodegradable. The rope is 1/4" and is purely for aesthetic appeal. Rope kite comes pre-cut but not pre-attached.
