Freestanding Pergolas
Creating an outdoor living area can be a dream come true for many homeowners. Starting with a free-standing pergola kit can simplify the transformation of your backyard into a relaxing oasis.
What is a Free-Standing Pergola?
A free-standing pergola is a self-supported structure with four or more posts, requiring no attachment to your home. These pergolas can be anchored to various surfaces such as concrete slabs, decks, or decorative stone columns. They are versatile, making them ideal for backyard patios, outdoor kitchens, poolside areas, or hot tubs. They are also perfect for decks where attaching a pergola to the house is not feasible.
Benefits of Free-Standing Pergolas
One major advantage of a free-standing pergola is its flexibility in placement. It can be installed close to your home or further away, as long as there is a solid base for anchoring. Additionally, you have more control over the orientation of the shade purlins, allowing you to adjust them to block light more effectively. A free-standing pergola can help define specific areas in your backyard, such as a dining room, kitchen, cabana, or seating area.
Types of Free-Standing Pergolas
Free-standing pergolas come in two main styles: Modern and Traditional. Modern pergolas are sleek and minimalist, while Traditional pergolas feature a classic open crisscross roof of beams and rafters. Both styles are constructed with a durable vinyl exterior that resists fading and wear, and an internal structure of extruded aluminum that provides strength and longevity.
Choosing the Right Pergola Design
When selecting a pergola, consider the size and shape that best fits your space. Custom kit sizes are available, and standard sizes can be modified during installation to accommodate features like wall bump-outs or roof extensions. Post options include 5" square, 7" square, or 10" round (for traditional styles). Additional choices such as color, shade amount, cap style, and accessories can be tailored to your preferences.
Low-Maintenance and Durable
Heartland Pergolas offers low-maintenance, vinyl pergolas that are easy to install and backed by a lifetime warranty. The combination of vinyl and aluminum ensures your pergola will not rot, sag, or warp over time.
