Additional Information

Not Included in this Kit

Wood - Lumber is a) very expensive to ship and b) readily available to most people at local home improvement and building supply stores. By buying your wood locally, you also have more options on the exact type of wood you'd like that is appropriate for your area's climate.

Anchoring Hardware - While this pergola kit does include stainless steel wood screws for securing 4x4" wood posts into the brackets, it does not include anchoring hardware for securing the base brackets into a secure base (i.e. cement pad, deck, landscape toppers, concrete footing, etc.). This is because the anchoring hardware you need will vary based on a) what type of material you're going into and b) local building codes.

  • Four (4) 8' long 6x6 posts
  • Four (4) 12' long 6x6 posts
  • Anchoring hardware (16 pieces)

The estimated cost for the above lumber and anchoring hardware is $520. This is only an estimate; actual costs will vary depending on the type of wood you decide to buy, your location, local stores & availability, and various other factors.

This kit for building a DIY wood pergola with a heavy-duty canvas canopy roof will accommodate any free-standing pergola ranging from 8-12 feet wide by 8-12 feet deep. The pergola with an overhead canopy roof does not need to be exactly 12' x 12' like in the images on this page.

The kit includes a premium quality charcoal gray shade canopy in your choice of 6 size options: 8x8, 8x10, 8x12, 10x10, 10x12 or 12x12. The canopy is made of fade-resistant 180 GSM High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) knitted fabric that blocks up to 95% of UV rays and is permeable to prevent rain from pooling on top. Each side of the shade canopy has 4 straps to keep it tight and prevent drooping. The kit also includes all necessary corner and side accessory mounts (including screws) to secure the shade canopy straps to the corner brackets and beams of the pergola.

Finally, the kit also includes a charcoal gray privacy sun shade for one of the pergola's walls in your choice of 3 size options: 8' wide by 8' tall, 10' wide by 8' tall, or 12' wide by 8' tall. The privacy sun shade is made of the same fade-resistant 180 GSM High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) knitted fabric that the shade canopy is made of. The kit also includes all necessary corner and side accessory mounts (including screws) for mounting the privacy sun shade.

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.
