Contemporary Freestanding Box Timber Pergola with Dual Slatted Privacy Screens – Pressure-Treated Garden Seating & Climbing Plant Structure

Create a more private and inviting place to relax with this Contemporary Freestanding Box Timber Pergola with Dual Slatted Privacy Screens. Its clean, square-edged frame and horizontal timber trellises give it a modern appearance while helping an outdoor seating or dining area feel more defined.

Two adjoining slatted side panels provide useful screening from neighbouring views, low-level sunlight and light breezes without making the space feel fully enclosed. The remaining sides stay open for easy access and clear views across the garden, making this pressure-treated timber pergola a practical choice for patios, landscaped areas and outdoor entertaining spaces.

Why This Box Timber Pergola Works So Well

• Two slatted privacy screens
  Creates a more secluded outdoor seating area while still allowing daylight and air to pass between the timber slats.
• Contemporary box-style design
  Clean lines and a simple freestanding shape suit modern gardens, newly landscaped patios and minimalist outdoor spaces.
• Screens positioned on two adjoining sides
  Forms a sheltered corner that works particularly well behind garden sofas, dining furniture or a hot tub.
• Open access from two sides
  Keeps the pergola easy to enter and prevents the structure from feeling closed in.
• Pressure-treated timber construction
  Helps protect the wooden pergola against rot, fungal decay and regular exposure to outdoor conditions.
• Substantial engineered redwood posts
  Provides a strong, stable framework with a smooth, high-quality appearance.
• Heavy-duty C16 timber rafters
  Give the open roof a solid and well-proportioned structure rather than a lightweight decorative finish.
• Ideal for climbing plants
  The slatted trellises provide a useful framework for clematis, jasmine, honeysuckle and other garden climbers.
• Easy to personalise
  Add outdoor lighting, planters, soft furnishings or decorative planting to create a space that feels completely your own.
• British made to order
  Each pergola is prepared specifically for your order by experienced timber specialists in a dedicated UK workshop.

Dual Slatted Trellises for Screening and Style

The two horizontal trellis panels are a key part of the pergola's design.

They soften the open timber frame and give the structure a more finished appearance from the moment it is installed.

• Slatted timber sections: 19mm x 44mm
  Create closely spaced horizontal screening with a neat and contemporary look.
• Partial sun screening
  Helps filter low-level sunlight from the screened sides while maintaining an open-air feel.
• Added shelter
  Can help reduce exposure to light breezes, although the panels are not designed to form a fully windproof barrier.
• Natural support for plants
  Provides multiple points for tying and training young climbing plants.
• Attractive furniture backdrop
  Gives outdoor seating, planters and decorative accessories a defined background.

Strong Timber Components for Outdoor Use

This box pergola is built with substantial pressure-treated timber components selected to provide strength, stability and a high-quality garden finish.

• Engineered redwood posts: 94mm x 94mm
  Manufactured from bonded timber layers to improve stability and reduce the likelihood of excessive twisting or warping.
• Kiln-dried timber posts
  Carefully dried to support improved dimensional stability and a more consistent finish.
• High-quality redwood appearance
  Provides a smooth and refined look that suits visible garden structures.
• C16 pergola rafters: 38mm x 138mm
  Heavy-duty timber sections create a substantial open-roof framework overhead.
• Pressure-treated construction
  Improves resistance to rot and decay, helping the structure withstand year-round outdoor exposure.
• Corrosion-resistant assembly fixings
  Supplied to help create a secure and lasting connection between the main timber components.

Open-Roof Design for Light and Fresh Air

The open pergola roof adds height and structure without creating the enclosed feel of a solid garden building.

The open-rafter design provides:

• Plenty of natural daylight beneath the pergola
• Continuous airflow through the seating area
• Gentle partial shade when the sun is overhead
• A framework for climbing and trailing plants
• Support for festoon lights and hanging decorations
• A more open alternative to a solid-roof gazebo

The roof does not provide complete weather protection and should not be treated as a waterproof shelter. As climbing plants mature across the frame, they can introduce additional seasonal shade and soften the clean lines of the structure.

Made to Order in Britain

Each box timber pergola is made to order in Britain rather than being imported as a lightweight, mass-produced seasonal structure.

• Produced at a dedicated UK timber workshop
• Prepared specifically for your selected size
• Made using a combination of skilled craftsmanship and modern cutting equipment
• Carefully checked before leaving the workshop
• Manufactured using timber sourced through suppliers expected to maintain recognised responsible forestry standards
• Produced with a focus on reducing unnecessary material and packaging waste

Because the pergola is produced specifically for your order, it offers a more substantial and considered alternative to temporary fabric gazebos and lightweight garden frames.
