IWhy Choose SIKLE SCD TM Wood Pergolas?

It's really all about you. Your budget, your taste and your surroundings. Wooden pergolas are less expensive initially than vinyl but have a level of maintenance depending on your long term goals.

PRODUCT Privacy Panels Styles

Lattice Privacy Panels can be up to 48" H each. If you prefer a shorter height, just let us know in the comment box at checkout. If you want to have privacy panels from the roof to the ground on one or more sides, you'll need 2 panels to cover the approximate 8^{\prime} height.

Lattice Privacy Panel(s) can be made long enough to fit between the posts of a 20' roof side (after taking into account the 1' overhang beyond the posts and the width of the posts, thisleaves up to a 17° 1" distance you can cover with any of our Privacy Panel options). You have the option of adding as many panels as you like. We always prepare drawings prior to building any Pergola. So, you'll have time to review your initial selection and make any changes to be certain the Privacy Panels are located where you'd like and that they are the correct height and height off the ground, etc.

When ordering Lattice Privacy Panels,please let us know in the Comments Box at checkout the height off the ground you'd like the bottom of your panel(s) to be we'll drill installation holes in the posts to achieve the height you specify. If no height is specified, we'll ship your posts without holes so you can determine the best height during installation.

We can build your Privacy Panels as shutters. The shutters sections open in and the bottom half of the wall is usually a solid wood panels as shown. Shutters are fixed and do not open and close.

Below are comparative drawings of the 4 different rafter and slat spacing options for pergola roofs:

Open Roof Slats at 18^{\prime\prime} , Rafters at 18^{\prime\prime}

The standard Open Roof is the most popular. It uses 1\ 3/4"~x~l~3/4" roofslatsspaced 18" apart on center (or slightly less depending on roof size so as to be equidistant from one another).Therafters below the slats are also spaced 18" on center or slightlyless andrun perpendicular to the slats. This spacing results in a balance between visibility and shade. You get excellent visibility and more shade from it than you normally would think due to the height of the timbers and because the sun is rarely directly overhead.

2. Open Roof Slats at 12^{\prime\prime} , Rafters at 18^{\prime\prime}

If you prefer more shadeyou canincrease the amount of roof slats to 12" apartoncenteror closer. Pricing is higher to cover the added timber involved. The least expensive route to add shading is to add roof slats and leave the rafters at 18-inch spacing. If you want more shading than the 12 inches on center, just contact us or make a note in the comments box when you Order.

For greater shade than the 12° slat option.

PLEASE NOTE: The best way to increase shading while retaining maximum visibility and not spending anymore money on extra roof timbers is to orient the rafters north and south. If the rafters are running north and south, the sun has to rise and set over them. This gives you a lot of shade in the mornings and afternoons.

The most popular roof style has always been with the slats and rafters both set at 18 inches on center. Please keep in mind it is easy to underestimate the amount of shade the 18 on center spacing creates. If after installation you realize you prefer extra shade, you can add slats then. We keep your construction details filed, so you can add roof slats anytime to create the on-center spacing that will work best for you. Our design pros can help you calculate how manymoreslatsyou'd needbased onthespacingyou'd liketomoveto.

Creates the most shade and privacy. It's the most popular and lowest cost option to maximize shading. Rafters are set at 24 inches on center when lattice panels are ordered. Each lattice panel is extra strong to resist snow. They are overbuilt with overlapping 3/8"~x~l~3/4" slats that have 1\;3/4"x1\;3/4" openings. Lattice panels are re-inforced with 1\;3/4"x1\;3/4" framing on all 4 sides. The panels are just a fraction over 22 inches wide. The lattice panels sit atop and flush with the roof supports and span the length of the rafters across to the other roof supports. They are fastened to the roof supports and also to the rafters so that the bottom of the lattice panel frames are flush with the bottom of the rafters. Once installed, when you exclude the lattice framing only 18" of lattice is left exposed to the elements. With the lattice also protected by the roof slats that run every 24 inches on center above them,they can handle snow and wind for many years.

GaleWind AnchorKit

The High Wind anchor is rated to withstand winds of up to 150~mph .Theyaremadefrom 100% Stainless steel. See chart above for typical recommended footing depth, but the final footing design will be part of your final approved working drawings that you will receive as part of the ordering process. They are normally installed at a 30 to 42 inch with a significant portion of the anchor in concrete underground as shown in the drawings above. For best results, we recommend doing the concrete work at least 3 days ahead of the Structure install so the concrete will cure prior to attaching the Structure to it.You then place the wood posts in the cradle and bolt the wood to the anchor. We supply wood trim pieces to hide the hardware so the bottom of the posts look like they have a wooden boot around them when installation is complete.

All our furniture ships finely sanded to 220 grit for a smooth to the touch finish.

The most popular finish is our Transparent Premium Sealant. This sealant leaves your furniture looking natural and helps keep the beautiful wood surface colors from fading for several years. We useSIKLE S CD^{TM} finishes.

Unfinished (fine sanding only):

If you are applying your own stain or want the surface color to fade to a "weathered look" in a few months. We do not recommend you leave your furniture unfinished outdoors for any extended period regardless of wood quality. Outdoor weather changes constantly and it is best to at least seal the wood to protect it from consistently absorbing and losing moisture.

Transparent Premium Sealant - Recommended for Outdoors:

Below are the 5 grades of wood we offer with the Transparent Premium Sealant applied. The color tones shown are close representations of the color your furniture will look like.

We also offer the Transparent Premium Sealant with the following stains. There is a small charge for adding these stains because it increases the total amount of coats to 4 with the sealant as the final coats:

Tiger Stripe Effect

Douglas-Fir when stained dark creates a "tiger stripe" effect as shown in this photo. It is beautiful and most customers love it. If you are looking for a dark consistent stain and do not want to see a "tiger stripe effect", please go with any of the Redwood grades for a more consistent stain finish.
