Pergolas

Open-roof shade structures with rafters and crossbeams.

Pergolas are freestanding or attached outdoor structures with vertical posts that support an open lattice roof of beams and rafters. They define an outdoor room without fully enclosing it, casting striped shade and providing structure for climbing plants like wisteria, grapevine, climbing roses, and clematis.

The 50 plans below cover every common size in the Pergolas category, with options for Black Locust, Composite (Trex / Azek), Cypress, Douglas Fir, Mahogany, Pressure-Treated Pine, Redwood, Western Red Cedar, White Oak. Use the size and difficulty filters above each card to narrow down to plans that match your skill level and the available footprint in your yard.
