While the images on this page show that all 10 brackets are used to add 5 straight inline roof rafters to your pergola (covering a span of 12' with far spacing between rafters), you can use the brackets any way you'd like (i.e. adding a privacy wall or half/partial wall, adding a side railing, installing the roof slats at an angle, etc.). You can also purchase additional 2x4 insert brackets here .
