Product Information
Full details
The Rutland Box Pergola is designed for homeowners seeking a modern, minimalist outdoor structure to enhance their garden. Its primary benefit is a stylish, contemporary aesthetic with clean lines that complement structured garden designs. A key consideration is that this pergola requires concreting in situ for stability, or additional braces must be purchased for freestanding placement. Key features include high-quality pressure-treated Redwood, substantial 95mm corner posts, and corrosion-treated fixings for durability.

FAQs
Does the pergola come with feet for freestanding installation?
No, the base model is designed to be concreted in situ. For freestanding installation, you must purchase separate optional add-ons such as bolt-down or spike feet, and potentially braces for added stability.
What tools are required for assembly?
The product is designed for assembly with the minimum of tools required. Specific tools like a drill (with a supplied flat drill bit for post modification) and standard assembly tools such as a screwdriver or wrench are typically needed.
Can I change the height of the pergola posts?
Yes, you can opt for 3m posts instead of the standard 2.7m posts. Please contact customer support to arrange this customization.
What is the weight of the pergola?
The total weight of the Box Pergola is 115 kg.
How do I clean and maintain the pergola?
Clean the pergola periodically with mild soap and water using a soft cloth or brush. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Consider applying a wood sealant every few years to maintain its condition.
Are there options to alter the roof slope?
Yes, a 5-degree slope can be added as an optional extra. Please contact customer support for details.
What type of wood is used?
The pergola is constructed from high-quality, pressure-treated Northern European Redwood.
Troubleshooting
Pergola feels unstable when freestanding.
Ensure you have purchased and correctly installed the optional braces (e.g., bolt-down or spike feet) or consider concreting the posts directly into the ground for maximum stability.
Difficulty assembling the unit.
Review the assembly instructions carefully. Ensure you are using the correct tools and that all parts are aligned before tightening fixings. Contact customer support if specific parts are unclear.
Wood shows signs of weathering or discoloration.
Clean the wood with a mild soap and water solution. For color restoration, consider applying a suitable wood stain or sealant designed for pressure-treated timber.
Fixings appear to be rusting.
While corrosion-treated, prolonged exposure to harsh weather may eventually affect fixings. Clean any rust spots and consider applying a rust-inhibiting coating or replacing the affected fixings.
