Front Porch Pergola Kits

What’s the production and delivery timeframe?

The amount of time required to build and ship your front porch pergola depends on your location and can span from 10 days to 3 weeks. After we receive full payment, we schedule the construction of your custom pergola kit. The time required for building your pergola depends on factors like wood type, style, size, and whether you need a building permit. If you are unsure about the need for a permit, it’s best to contact your local permitting office. If you do require a permit, we will hold your order until you obtain approval, which might affect the production and delivery time. The timing is also influenced by the season. Once the kit is complete, the transit time will again vary based on your location, ranging from 1 to 14 days. Taking all these factors into account, the production and transit period typically falls between 10 days and 3 weeks. If you have specific project timelines, we will collaborate to find a suitable delivery date. Please note that the shippers are not responsible for unloading the pergola kit, so make sure you have some friends or family members available to assist with inspection, unloading, and stacking.

How is a front porch pergola packaged?

Our pergola kits are carefully crated and will include all the components you need to assemble the kit, including the wood components, hardware, packing list, and installation instructions. Once it’s built and ready to ship, we’ll schedule the shipment of your pergola kit. After your pergola kit leaves our facility, we’ll send you an email with shipping information, a packing list so you know what components you’ll be unloading, a photo of your crated pergola kit, and installation instructions. This will give you some time to prepare for the delivery.

How Do I Measure My Front Porch so the Pergola Fits?

Do you dream of sitting outside on your front porch in the shade of a pergola? You may be wondering how to measure your space to ensure that the pergola fits perfectly. The first step is to decide on the placement of your pergola on the front porch. You want to make sure that it doesn’t interfere with the flow of traffic and that it complements the style of your home. Once you’ve determined the best location, measure the width and depth of the area. Be sure to account for any existing obstacles such as railings, columns, or stairs. Keep in mind that the size of your pergola may also affect your local building codes and pergola permit requirements. With a little planning and accurate measurements, you’ll be enjoying your front porch pergola in no time!

When you’re ready to choose the size for your pergola, take a look at our guide on how to measure. It provides details on pergola width, length, and height. Our DIY pergola kits are available in more than 90 standard sizes and custom sizes to fit unique dimensions.

What Type of Wood is Best for Pergolas on the Front of the House?

When it comes to adding style and character to your home’s exterior, a front porch pergola is an excellent choice. Not only does it provide shade and a cozy outdoor space, but it also enhances your home’s curb appeal. But, when deciding what type of wood to use for your pergola on the front of your house, it’s important to consider factors such as durability and aesthetics. After all, you want your new porch with pergola to look amazing and last for years to come! While there are various types of woods to choose from, we recommend using rough sawn western red cedar or #1 pressure treated southern yellow pine. Both of these materials offer durability, resistance to rot and pests, and a beautiful natural look that will complement any home. Plus, they can be stained or painted to match your home’s existing colors (with pine, you’ll need to wait 2-3 months until the treatment dries to apply your preferred finish). So, if you’re looking to add some charm and sophistication to your porch with a pergola on the front of your house, consider using cedar or pine for a stunning and long-lasting result!

Are There Special Considerations for Attaching a Pergola to a Front Porch Deck?

Adding a pergola to your front porch can enhance your home’s overall look and add an element of charm to your outdoor space. However, before you take the plunge and start installing a pergola, it’s important to consider a few things. Keep in mind that if you have an existing deck (or plan to install one), the weight of the front porch pergola will be supported by your deck, so you’ll want to make sure it’s strong enough to handle the extra load. Additionally, you’ll need to select the right materials and size for your pergola front porch to ensure it complements your home’s style and provides ample shade. You can even consider if you’d like a solar-ready pergola so you can add solar panels to your pergola. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the details, don’t worry! There are plenty of attached pergola kits or deck pergola kits you can purchase that take the guesswork out of the process. With a little planning and the right tools, you can create a beautiful and functional outdoor space you’ll enjoy for years to come.
