Important Information
Assembly of garden pergolas is relatively straightforward but should only be undertaken by competent, experienced or professional installers. Pergolas contain heavy timber components and require correct installation to ensure stability and resistance to outdoor conditions. Improper assembly increases the risk of structural failure. We recommend getting everything aligned properly and pre-drilling any screw holes before final assembly to ensure easier assembly and avoid splitting the timber. If you are unsure about any aspect of installation, seek professional advice before proceeding.

How to Measure Your Pergola Correctly
Getting your pergola measurements right is key to ensuring a perfect fit for your space. Use the guide above to understand how each dimension is calculated:
- Width
The width is the length of the rafters that run from one side of the pergola to the other (measured end-to-end). This is the front-facing span of the pergola and includes any ‘overhang’ of the rafters which extend beyond the outside edges of pergola posts and refers to the widest part of the pergola. - Length
The length is the length of the side-rails that run along each side of the pergola (measured end-to-end). This is typically the side-facing span of the pergola and includes any ‘overhang’ of the side-rails which extend beyond the outside edges of pergola posts and refers to longest part of the pergola. - Height
The height is taken from the ground level to the highest point of the pergola and refers to the highest point on the pergola.
For the most accurate results, always measure your available space carefully and allow for any surrounding features such as walls, fences, or posts.
