Built using quality durable wood, every one of our Big Kahuna pergola kits is built using either pressure treated #1 southern yellow pine lumber or western red rough sawn tight knot cedar. Either choice ensures you will have a durable wood pergola that is able to withstand severe weather. When properly cared for, your pergola will last for many years.
We have been in the business of constructing pergolas for years, and have perfected this design to make it a strong and lasting pergola that will stand the test of time for years to come. With this large pergola, you can choose freestanding or attached. With its beefy 6X6 posts, double 2X8 beams, 2X8 rafters, 2X6 angle braces, and 2X2 top slats, it commands attention when placed in the backyard or garden. On each Big Kahuna Pergola, we notch each post to a depth of 1-1/2 inches on each side in order to make a more secure connection between the beam and post. We also notch the rafters over the beams to take away the lateral motion usually found with cheaper pergolas that are not notched. This equates to a pergola that is aesthetically pleasing and will hold up to the harshest elements. This pergola, just like the rest of our models, is built per order in the USA with precision and pride in knowing that upon installation this pergola kit will go together with ease.

How to Determine Your Pergola Dimensions and Style
To choose your perfect pergola style, first determine your ideal dimensions based on the desired location of your pergola.
You can choose from a range of rafter and beam lengths. Your rafter and beam lengths will be reflected in your size choice – for example, an 8×10 pergola kit will have 8 foot rafters and 10 foot beams. Inner and Outer post-to-post dimensions will also be affected by your choice in size.
For more detailed information about your pergola’s dimensions, view our Big Kahuna Dimension Chart.
Standard size pergola kits ship from our facility in Florida generally within approximately 3-5 weeks from the day we receive cleared payment (please contact us for current shipping timeframes). This varies based on season, shipping location, and the size kit. Once your order leaves our production facility in Florida, delivery times are typically between 2 days and 12 days from the date of shipment, depending upon your location. Please contact us for current shipping timeframes.
We custom build a pallet that goes under each kit, stack the pergola pieces on the pallet, then strap the pieces down and build crating around the outside to protect the lumber. The kit will come on the back of a semi truck and you will need to hand unload it piece by piece. For most shipments, the driver is not required to help unload it, but some will assist. The whole process takes about 20-30 minutes depending on the size kit you’ve ordered. Just make sure there are 2-3 healthy adults present to unload the lumber for a standard size kit.
You’ll also need a tool to cut the strapping from the crate (scissors or knife) and possibly a screw gun with a Phillips bit to uncrate the lumber. Every kit is crated a little differently due to the different sizes of pergola kits available. Not all crates will need to have screws removed but those that do will usually have 4-6 screws to take out in order to remove the pergola pieces from the crate.
