Helpful Information

Frequently Asked Product Questions

What is a box pergola?

A box pergola is a freestanding timber garden structure with substantial posts, horizontal beams and an open-rafter roof. Its clean rectangular shape works well over patios, seating areas, outdoor dining spaces and garden entertaining areas.

Are Timbakit box pergolas pressure treated?

Yes. Our box pergolas are made from pressure-treated timber to help protect the wood against rot, fungal decay and general outdoor exposure.

Do I need to treat a pressure-treated pergola when it arrives?

Not immediately. Pressure-treated timber is designed for outdoor use. Once the timber has had time to dry, you can apply a suitable exterior wood treatment, stain or water repellent if you want additional protection or a different appearance.

What can I use a box pergola for?

Box pergolas are ideal for outdoor dining areas, lounge furniture, BBQ spaces, garden entertaining areas, hot tubs, climbing plants and decorative lighting.

Can I grow climbing plants over a box pergola?

Yes. The open-rafter design works particularly well with climbing plants such as clematis, jasmine, honeysuckle and climbing roses.

Can festoon lights be fitted to the pergola?

Yes. The beams and rafters provide plenty of fixing points for lightweight outdoor festoon lighting, provided the lights and electrical connections are suitable for exterior use.

How should the pergola posts be fixed to the ground?

The most suitable fixing method depends on the surface. Common options include bolt-down post bases for concrete or structural decking, or other suitable timber post-fixing systems.

What wood are the kits made from?

All of our box pergola kits are cut from FSC certified, pressure treated spruce. You can find out about the impressive wood section sizes included on each of our box pergola product listings.

Do you offer bespoke sizes?

We don't currently provide a bespoke, made to measure service, however we do offer a wide range of standard sizes in both our freestanding and lean-to box pergola product options to suit lots of outdoor spaces.

Do you offer an assembly service?
