Pergola Kirkdale.
Most can be made by adapting the principles used in the free pergola plans. Some of us, however, need a little more help with building these more unusual designs.

The free pergola plans will still work for any shape or size, even if the look is significantly different – using thicker wood, making rafter tails longer, changing the shape of the structure and the decorative rafter tail ends, having rafters running in only one direction and closer together, using a raised rafter style, or having rafters sitting fully on top of the supports. There are so many things you can do.

So what’s stopping you?
Yes, these spectacular garden structures can be easy to build, but it’s those niggly little uncertainties, isn’t it – what size of wood to use – how to fix it into the ground – where to find materials – whether to buy a ready-made manufactured pergola kit instead? The list gets longer and longer…
Don’t let these small details put you off. Once you know which size bolts to use and the length of wood you’ll need – or where to find the pergola kit you’re dreaming of – it’s fairly plain sailing. You could easily have one of these gorgeous features in your garden in no time at all.
