V.7 Rectangular Pressure-Treated Timber Pergola, Decking & Balustrade Kit – Half-Length Open-Rafter Garden Seating Area

Create a comfortable and clearly defined place to enjoy your garden with the V.7 Rectangular Pressure-Treated Timber Pergola, Decking and Balustrade Kit. Combining a spacious decked platform with a half-length open-rafter canopy and traditional timber balustrading, it provides a complete foundation for outdoor dining, relaxed seating and summer entertaining.

The pergola spans the full width of the decking but covers approximately half of its depth. This practical layout creates two distinct areas: a more structured space beneath the timber rafters and an open section for a barbecue, planters, sun loungers or additional garden furniture.

Why the V.7 Pergola and Decking Kit Works So Well

• Pergola, decking and balustrading in one kit
  Provides coordinated components that are designed to work together, saving you from sourcing and matching separate garden products.
• Generous rectangular decked platform
  Creates a dedicated surface for dining furniture, outdoor sofas and accessories while separating the area from lawns, gravel or planting beds.
• Half-length open-rafter canopy
  Adds height and definition to one section of the deck without covering the entire outdoor space.
• Pre-assembled timber balustrade sections
  Help streamline construction and give the finished decking a more established and attractive appearance.
• Pressure-treated timber construction
  Improves resistance to rot and decay, helping the structure cope with regular exposure to outdoor conditions.
• Grooved pressure-treated decking boards
  Form a substantial outdoor platform with the familiar appearance of traditional timber decking.
• Heavy-duty structural timber
  Uses robust rafters, joists and engineered posts to create a well-proportioned and dependable garden feature.
• Decorative braces and rafter ends
  Add traditional character and soften the appearance of the main timber framework.
• Easy to personalise
  Add climbing plants, festoon lighting, planters and outdoor furniture to create a space that suits the way you use your garden.
• Made to order in Britain
  Each V.7 pergola and decking kit is prepared specifically for your chosen size by experienced timber specialists in a UK workshop.
  
  
  

Please Check the Dimensions Before Ordering

The advertised dimensions describe the total decking and base area. They do not represent the structural footprint of the pergola posts.

The pergola is designed to:

• Span the full width of the decking
• Cover approximately half of the total decking depth
• Include a standard roof overhang of approximately 450mm around the pergola frame

For example:

• A listed size of 2.4m x 3.0m refers to the complete decked platform.
• The approximate pergola post footprint would be 2.4m x 1.5m.
• The timber rafters extend beyond the posts to form the roof overhang.

Always refer to the internal post dimensions when checking whether furniture, screens, planters or other items will fit beneath the pergola section.

Built Using Substantial Pressure-Treated Timber

The V.7 pergola and decking kit is manufactured using robust timber components selected for strength, stability and lasting outdoor use.

• Decking boards: 32mm x 125mm
  Grooved and pressure treated to create a durable garden platform for furniture and everyday use.
• Pergola rafters: 38mm x 138mm
  C16 Scandinavian pine rafters form the substantial open-roof canopy.
• Deck frame joists: 38mm x 89mm
  Create the supporting framework beneath the decking boards.
• Engineered redwood posts: 94mm x 94mm
  Produced from bonded timber layers to improve strength and dimensional stability.
• Kiln-dried corner posts
  Dried to approximately 12 to 14 percent moisture content to help limit excessive movement and warping.
• UC4 pressure-treated posts
  Provide enhanced resistance to rot and decay in demanding outdoor environments.
• Balustrade spindles: 42mm x 42mm
  Create a substantial vertical railing design with a traditional timber appearance.
• Smooth-finished handrails: 65mm x 32mm
  Give the balustrading a neat and comfortable upper edge.
• Corrosion-resistant assembly fixings
  The principal fixings required to connect the pergola, decking and balustrade components are included.

A Flexible Mix of Open Space and Partial Shade

The half-length pergola canopy gives you more flexibility than a structure that covers the entire deck. Seating can be positioned beneath the rafters, while the open section remains available for sun loungers, a barbecue or furniture that benefits from direct sunlight.

• Provides gentle partial shade when the sun is overhead
• Allows plenty of daylight across the decked platform
• Maintains airflow throughout the seating area
• Creates a framework for climbing and trailing plants
• Provides support for festoon lighting and decorations
• Leaves part of the decking completely open to the sky

The open-rafter canopy is not waterproof and should not be treated as a solid garden roof. Climbing plants can be trained across the timber to introduce additional seasonal shade as they mature.

Made to Order in Britain

Each V.7 rectangular pergola and decking kit is made to order in Britain rather than being taken from a lightweight, mass-produced seasonal range.

• Produced at a dedicated UK timber workshop
• Prepared specifically for your selected product size
• Manufactured using modern cutting equipment and experienced workmanship
• Carefully checked before leaving the workshop
• Made using timber sourced through suppliers expected to maintain recognised responsible forestry standards
• Produced with consideration given to reducing unnecessary material and packaging waste

Timber is a natural material, so knots, grain patterns and differences in colour should be expected. Minor surface checks, small splits or slight movement may also develop as the wood responds to changes in temperature and moisture.

Delivery Information

• Most orders are delivered within 7 to 10 working days.
• Delivery times may vary slightly during busy periods or for certain UK locations.
• The pergola and decking will arrive in kit form for assembly.

Important Installation Information

• Install the pergola and decking kit on a stable, level and suitably prepared base.

• Check for underground pipes, drainage and electrical cables before excavating or installing ground fixings.
• The open-rafter canopy provides partial shade but does not offer waterproof protection.
