Adapting The Plans
Why adapt the plans?
There may be several reasons for adapting the plans - after all we all have individual tastes and some situations require special treatment.
The free pergola plans do, in fact, allow for some variation but you might like to consider the options below before you begin.
Do you wish to -
* Use concrete instead of Metposts to secure your
posts to the ground.
* Put up your pergola on sloping ground.
* Use 'chunkier' wood.
* Put trellis panels on a 3rd side of your pergola.
* Make your pergola longer/wider.
If you would like to do any of these things, follow the link at the bottom of the page.
