V.4 Rectangular Pressure-Treated Timber Pergola, Decking & Balustrade Kit – Half-Canopy Garden Entertaining Platform

The V.4 Rectangular Pergola, Decking and Balustrade Kit is a ready-planned timber terrace for gardens that need a genuine place to sit, eat and unwind. Rather than buying a pergola, decking boards and railings separately, everything is designed to work together as one balanced outdoor feature.

Its rectangular deck provides plenty of room for furniture, while the pergola sits across approximately half of the platform. This gives you a more intimate area beneath the rafters and a brighter open section for dining, pots, loungers or a barbecue.

What Makes the V.4 a Great Garden Upgrade

• Pergola, decking and balustrade in one coordinated kit
  Removes the guesswork involved in matching separate components and creates a consistent timber finish throughout.
• Two useful zones on one platform
  Enjoy a defined seating space beneath the pergola while keeping the remaining deck open for flexible everyday use.
• Rectangular shape
  Works particularly well in longer gardens, beside established patios or across wider landscaped areas.
• Integrated timber balustrade
  Frames the deck, adds visual detail and gives the finished area a more considered appearance.
• Grooved pressure-treated decking
  Provides a durable surface for dining sets, outdoor sofas, planters and regular garden foot traffic.
• Open timber roof
  Introduces filtered shade and overhead interest without blocking natural light or airflow.
• Freestanding installation
  Allows the structure to become a destination within the garden rather than needing to sit against the house.

Important Sizing Information

The size shown in the product options refers to the complete decking area, not the internal pergola post dimensions.

• The pergola spans the full width of the deck.
• It covers approximately half of the total decking depth.
• The canopy includes an approximate 450mm overhang around the pergola frame.

As an example, a kit listed as 2.4m x 3.0m has a total base area of that size, while the approximate post footprint would be 2.4m x 1.5m.

Measure sofas, tables, hot tubs and other large items against the internal post spacing rather than the overall platform dimensions.

Timber Specification

• Decking boards: 32mm x 125mm
  Grooved pressure-treated boards form the main walking and furniture surface.

• Handrails: 65mm x 32mm
  Smooth-finished timber provides a neat upper edge to the balustrade.
• Corrosion-resistant fixings
  The principal assembly fixings are supplied with the kit.

Open to the Light, Ready for Your Own Style

The rafters form an open pergola roof, so the area beneath stays bright and well ventilated. It offers a degree of shade when the sun is overhead, but rain will pass through and the structure should not be considered waterproof.

Leave the timber uncluttered for a clean look, or gradually add climbing roses, clematis, jasmine or honeysuckle. Festoon lights and planted pots can also help the space feel warmer and more personal in the evening.
