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.

Required Lumber & Estimated Cost

As noted above, wood (lumber) is NOT included in this DIY kit for building a covered pergola for patio/deck shade, nor is the hardware you'll need to anchor the base brackets to a secure foundation. Before you can build your roof-shade pergola, you'll need to purchase the following items from a local building supply store or lumber yard (assuming you plan to build a 24' x 24' pergola that is 8' tall):

  • Nine (9) 8' long 4x4 posts
  • Twelve (12) 12' long 4x4 posts
  • Thirty-six (36) 12' long 2x4 slats
  • Anchoring hardware (36 pieces)

The estimated cost for the above lumber and anchoring hardware is $975. 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 covered pergola kit will accommodate any free-standing pergola ranging from 14-24 feet by 14-24 feet. The evening shade pergola does not need to be exactly 24' x 24' like in the images on this page.

The kit includes four (4) premium quality charcoal gray shade canopies in your choice of 6 size options: 8x8, 8x10, 8x12, 10x10, 10x12 or 12x12. The canopies are 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 canopies has 4 straps to keep them tight and prevent drooping. The kit also includes 48 corner and side accessory mounts (including screws) to secure the shade canopy straps to the corner brackets and beams of the pergola.

The kit also includes 72 2x4 insert brackets. While the images on this page show that all 72 brackets are used to add two privacy walls with 18 slats each (both 8' tall with closely spaced slats), you can use the brackets any way you'd like (i.e. adding another privacy wall or half/partial wall, adding a side railing, adding roof rafters below the shade canopies, etc.). You can also purchase additional 2x4 insert brackets here.
