This hardware kit for an easy pergola build will accommodate any stand-alone pergola ranging from 25-36 feet by 4-12 feet. The pergola does not need to be the exact dimensions shown in the images on this page.
The kit includes 28 2x4 rafter brackets so you can add 7 traditional roof rafters that cover all 3 roof sections and run longways (12' width with medium spacing). These rafters sit atop the beams and can be installed with or without overhangs. If you would like to space the rafters closer together, you can purchase additional 2x4 rafter brackets here. If you're wanting this same pre-configured pergola except with the roof rafters running the other direction (i.e. rotated 90 degrees so each roof section has 7 separate rafters), click here.
The pergola kit also includes 26 2x4 insert brackets. While the intent is that all 26 of these insert brackets be used to add 1 privacy wall with 13 2x4 slats (8' height with medium spacing), you can use the brackets any way you'd like (i.e. adding another privacy wall or half/partial wall, adding a side railing, etc.). You can also purchase additional 2x4 insert brackets here.
