Designed to provide a level base area, it’s a considered way to connect sections of a garden or patio while adding a structured focal point for outdoor living. For rectangular layouts, the listed size refers to the total decking/base area rather than the pergola frame. The pergola is designed to span the full width and half the depth of the base, with a standard 45cm overhang on all sides (front/back and sides). Posts are supplied at 2.7m and can be trimmed if required for a free-standing structure.

Inspect at least once a year for loose fasteners or cracked boards and tighten or replace as needed.
