Custom Pergola Kits - Lifetime Warranty
Vinyl pergola kits are pre-assembled structures featuring a vinyl exterior, designed for easy assembly. They provide both shade and an elegant addition to any outdoor space such as a garden, patio, or deck.
Available in various sizes and styles, from small, simple designs to larger, more intricate structures, these kits offer endless customization options for your outdoor setup. Vinyl pergola kits are also low-maintenance and easy to clean, making them perfect for homeowners seeking a hassle-free shade solution. Made from high-quality vinyl, they are durable and resistant to weathering, fading, and other damage.
One of the key benefits of vinyl pergolas is their versatility. They can create a variety of designated outdoor spaces, such as covered seating areas for entertaining guests, outdoor dining rooms, poolside cabanas, or covers for outdoor kitchens or bars. Vinyl pergolas are often preferred over other materials due to their cost-effectiveness and low maintenance. While wooden pergolas require more upkeep, have a shorter lifespan, and can be pricier, aluminum and fiberglass pergolas, though offering similar benefits, are generally more expensive and less natural-looking.
Benefits of Vinyl Pergola Kits
Vinyl pergola kits provide numerous advantages:
-
Low Maintenance: Vinyl pergolas need minimal upkeep compared to wood, which must be regularly stained and sealed to prevent weathering and decay. Vinyl is resistant to rot, insects, and weather damage.
-
Easy Installation: Designed for easy assembly, vinyl pergola kits can be quickly put together with basic tools, saving you money on installation costs.
-
Cost-Effective: Typically less expensive than custom wood, aluminum, or fiberglass pergolas, vinyl options offer similar durability and quality without the added cost. True North Pergolas provides a limited lifetime warranty, unmatched by other pergolas.
-
Customizable: Available in various sizes and styles, vinyl pergola kits can be customized with accessories like privacy screens, lighting, and climbing plants. They can also be trimmed for a custom fit.
-
Strength & Stability: Built with an aluminum framework, these pergolas are strong yet lightweight, ensuring safety and longevity.
Types of Vinyl Pergola Kits
Freestanding vs. Attached
Vinyl pergola kits can be freestanding or attached. Attached pergolas are affixed to your home or structure on one side, while freestanding pergolas are supported by posts on all sides. Freestanding pergolas can be placed anywhere, such as patios, decks, gardens, or poolside.
Modern vs. Traditional Style
Modern pergola kits have clean, geometric lines with rafter and purlin ends set within the outer beams, while traditional kits feature open ends. Although mainly an aesthetic difference, modern kits may require more posts for larger structures compared to traditional kits.
Choosing the Right Vinyl Pergola Kit
Survey Your Outdoor Areas
First, choose a level space for your pergola. Decide between a freestanding or attached structure based on the area’s proximity to your home. Ensure the pergola has adequate clearance above doors and windows but below rooflines, and verify structural attachment points on your home.
Sun Direction
If shade is a priority, consider the sun's angle during the day. For maximum shade, it’s optimal to have purlins running east to west with the tops angled away from the south.
Choose Your Options
Customize your pergola kit by selecting post sizes, shade amounts, and end cap styles. Post options include 5-inch square, 7-inch square, or 10-inch round posts, all featuring the same structural reinforcement. Shade options range from no shade to 90% shade. End caps are available in scroll, flat, or bevel styles to match your desired aesthetic.
