Troubleshooting

Pergola posts are not level

Adjust the concrete footing before it fully cures. If concrete has set, you may need to re-dig and re-pour the footings for the affected posts.

Panel slats do not fit correctly

Ensure you are using the correct size slats and that the pre-drilled holes on the main frame are aligned properly. Check the individual slat dimensions against the product specifications.

Warping or twisting of timber

While pressure treatment minimizes this, ensure the wood is kept dry and out of prolonged direct water contact. Apply a suitable wood treatment annually. Minor warping can sometimes be corrected by loosening and retightening fixings or by adding bracing.

Fixings appear to be rusting

The fixings are corrosion-treated, but in very harsh environments, some surface rust may appear. Clean with a wire brush and apply a metal protective coating if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

The Rutland Panel Pergola is designed for concreting into the ground. The posts (2700mm) should be set approximately 400mm deep, leaving a 2300mm finished height. Ensure the ground is prepared for concreting and that the posts are level and square before the concrete sets. Assembly requires minimal tools, with individual panel slats allowing for custom spacing. It is recommended to have at least two people for safe assembly and positioning.

Compatibility:

This pergola is designed as a standalone structure. Optional add-ons are available for customization, including cladding panels, different post heights (3m), and various bolt-down or spike foot options for alternative installation methods (sold separately). Please contact customer service for details on these options.

Care:

To maintain the appearance and longevity of the pressure-treated Northern European Redwood, regular cleaning with mild soap and water is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals. Inspect fixings periodically and tighten if necessary. The wood is pressure-treated for protection against rot and insect attack, but annual treatment with a suitable wood preserver or stain can further enhance its durability and appearance.
