FAQs
What is the primary difference between this and traditional pergolas?
The Wall Mounted Box Pergola features a modern, minimalist design with clean, uncluttered lines, distinguishing it from more ornate or traditional styles.
Do I need to concrete this pergola into the ground?
For optimal stability, especially if it is not wall-mounted, it is designed to be concreted in situ. If you intend to use it freestanding without concreting, you must purchase the additional braces for stability.
What are the dimensions of the posts and beams?
The corner posts are solid 95mm x 95mm, and the runners and rafters are 34mm x 140mm.
Can I make the pergola taller?
Yes, you can change the pergola post height to 3m from the standard 2.7m. Please inquire about this optional extra.
What types of ground fixings are available?
Optional galvanised steel socket design bolt-down feet and spike feet are available for securing the posts.
How do I attach it to a wall?
While designed as a wall-mounted structure, specific attachment methods to a wall are not detailed here. Ensure a secure fixing method appropriate for your wall type is used.
What is the weight of the pergola?
The total weight of the pergola is 130 kg.
Troubleshooting
Pergola feels unstable when not concreted in.
Ensure the optional braces are securely attached, or consider using the recommended galvanised steel socket design bolt-down or spike feet for freestanding installation.
Difficulty drilling post holes for feet.
Use the provided flat drill bit and ensure the post is securely clamped before drilling. Drill slowly and steadily to create a clean hole for the foot fitting.
Wood appears to be weathering or changing colour.
This is normal weathering. To restore appearance, clean with a mild solution and consider applying a suitable wood sealant or stain designed for outdoor use.
Required tools not explicitly listed.
Basic DIY tools such as a spirit level, tape measure, saw (if posts need trimming), drill, and shovel (for concreting) are typically needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The pergola is designed for easy assembly with minimal tools. It requires concreting in situ for stability. If you plan to use it freestanding, you must purchase the additional braces for adequate stability. For a secure fix, Rutland provides a flat drill bit for preparing the posts to fit bolt-down or spiked feet. After cutting your posts to the desired length, use the drill bit to create a central hole at the bottom of each post to align with the chosen foot fitting.
Compatibility: This wall-mounted version is best suited for installation against a solid wall or structure. For freestanding configurations, specific bracing or footing solutions must be acquired. Optional add-ons like 5-degree slope, cladding panels, and different post heights are available.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the Redwood, regular cleaning with a mild soap and water solution is recommended. Avoid harsh chemicals. Periodically check fixings for tightness and reapply a wood sealant or stain if desired, especially after a few years of weathering, to preserve the timber's condition and colour.
