Usage

Roof rafter brackets are used to create a traditional-style roof on top of the pergola beams (adding an upper 2nd layer to the pergola roof). The rafters inserted into and secured to these rafter brackets typically (but don't necessarily have to) extend 6-12 inches beyond the beams to create overhangs. Rafter brackets can be used with both free-standing pergolas and attached pergolas.

Love the privacy!

This kit arrived quickly and exactly as advertised. We ordered the 12x12 with two privacy walls to surround our jacuzzi. I love that it is customizable to the exact size you need. It did take three people to stand it up (very heavy 6x6 posts), but super sturdy and looks modern. It is absolutely perfect!

Perfect for brackets on workbench

I purchased these for connecting 4x4’s to 6x6 legs for a workbench. I need four more to put the workbench table together. They absolutely perfect for this purpose. I can’t wait to get four more!!!

Pergola W/6” X 6” posts

We ordered the set we liked and the next day we were informed that some of the parts were back ordered. That happens and we were fine waiting a few extra weeks to receive everything. Once the brackets arrived two of the boxes had some damage to the exterior box. The packaging was so good that the interior
boxes were damage free (nice job). While we were putting our pergola together we had one rafter bracket that did not have all of the holes in it, nothing a drill and drill bit could not take care of (quality Control 4.9, it happens). We are planing to mount a swinging bed inside of the pergola so we did not use the screws provided instead we used a GRK type of structural screw with a higher weight load per screw. Overall we are very pleased with the brackets and with the ease it was to put together.

Amazing design and support

Perfect solution for my patio and helped tremendously during a slight shipping issue by UPS.
