Rectangular Pressure-Treated Timber Pergola & Decking Kit with Balustrades – Garden Seating Platform with Half-Length Open-Rafter Canopy

Create a complete outdoor living area with the V.11 Rectangular Pressure-Treated Timber Pergola and Decking Kit. Combining a spacious decked platform, a half-length open-rafter canopy and pre-assembled balustrades, it gives you a practical and attractive place for dining, relaxing and entertaining in the garden.

Unlike a full-length pergola, the canopy covers approximately half the depth of the decking. This creates a useful balance between open and partially shaded space, allowing you to position seating beneath the rafters while keeping the remaining deck available for a dining table, barbecue, planters or additional furniture.

Why the V.11 Pergola and Decking Kit Works So Well

• Pergola, decking and balustrades in one kit
  Provides the main components required to create a coordinated outdoor seating area without having to match separate products.
• Large rectangular decked platform
  Creates a defined and practical surface for garden furniture while separating the area from lawns, gravel and planting beds.
• Half-length open-rafter canopy
  Creates an attractive focal point at one end of the decking while leaving the remaining platform open to the sky.
• Pre-assembled timber balustrades
  Help reduce assembly time and give the decking a more substantial and finished appearance.
• Open access points
  Allow easy movement between the decking and the surrounding garden without making the area feel enclosed.
• Pressure-treated outdoor timber
  Helps protect the structure against rot, decay and everyday exposure to the British weather.
• Grooved decking boards
  Provide a practical garden surface with the traditional appearance of timber decking.
• Decorative rafter ends and supporting braces
  Add character and give the pergola a more refined finish than a basic square timber frame.
• Easy to personalise
  Add climbing plants, festoon lighting, outdoor furniture and planters to create a space that suits your garden.
• British made to order
  Each kit is prepared specifically for the customer by experienced timber specialists in a UK workshop.

A Space for Relaxing and Entertaining

The V.11 kit helps turn an unused section of the garden into a clear destination for outdoor living. The balustrades give the deck a stronger sense of definition, while the pergola provides a natural framework for lighting, trailing plants and seasonal decorations.

• Outdoor dining area
• Garden sofa and lounge space
• Barbecue and entertaining zone
• Morning coffee or reading area
• Decorative container garden
• Climbing plant display
• Family seating area
• Outdoor drinks or serving space

Please Check the Sizing Before Ordering

The advertised dimensions refer to the total decking and base area, not the footprint of the pergola posts.

The pergola is designed to:

• Span the full width of the decking
• Cover approximately half of the 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 describes the complete decked base.
• The approximate structural post footprint would be 2.4m x 1.5m.
• The rafters extend beyond the posts to create the roof overhang.

This layout provides both an open decked section and a more defined area beneath the pergola. Always use the internal post measurements when planning furniture, screens or other items that need to fit beneath the canopy.

Built Using Substantial Pressure-Treated Timber

The V.11 kit is constructed using strong outdoor timber components rather than lightweight decorative framing.

• Decking boards: 32mm x 125mm
  Grooved and pressure treated to create a durable garden platform.
• Pergola rafters: 38mm x 138mm
  C16-grade Scandinavian pine rafters form a strong and well-proportioned open-roof structure.
• Decking frame joists: 38mm x 89mm
  Create the supporting framework beneath the deck boards.
• Corner posts: 94mm x 94mm
  Engineered redwood posts are formed from bonded timber layers for improved strength and dimensional stability.
• Kiln-dried corner posts
  Dried to approximately 12 to 14 percent moisture content to help reduce movement and warping.
• UC4 pressure-treated corner posts
  Provide long-term protection against rot and decay in demanding outdoor conditions.
• Balustrade spindles: 42mm x 42mm
  Create a substantial vertical railing design around the decking.
• Handrails: 65mm x 32mm
  Smooth-finished timber rails provide an attractive and comfortable top edge.

A Practical Balance of Shade and Sunlight

The open-rafter pergola roof is designed to provide partial shade rather than complete weather protection.

• Creates an airy outdoor space that does not feel enclosed
• Provides filtered shade when the sun is overhead
• Allows plenty of natural daylight across the decking
• Provides a framework for climbing plants and decorative screening
• Allows furniture to be positioned in both open and partially shaded areas

As climbing plants mature across the rafters, they can provide additional seasonal shade while softening the appearance of the timber structure.

Made to Order in Britain

Each V.11 pergola and decking kit is made to order in a specialist British workshop rather than being mass produced and stored for long periods.

• Handled by experienced timber craftsmen
• Manufactured using modern cutting and production equipment
• Prepared specifically for your selected size
• Carefully checked before leaving the workshop
• Made using timber sourced through suppliers expected to maintain recognised responsible forestry standards

Natural timber will contain knots, grain variations and differences in tone. These are normal characteristics of real wood and help give every finished pergola its own individual appearance.

Delivery Information

• This is a made-to-order product.
• Most orders are delivered within 7 to 10 working days.
• Lead times may be slightly longer during busy periods or for certain delivery locations.
• Please ensure there is suitable access for unloading the timber components.
• We recommend preparing the installation area before your order arrives.

Supplied as a Complete Assembly Kit

Corrosion-resistant assembly fixings are included to help make installation more straightforward.

The kit includes the principal timber components for:

• The rectangular decking base
• The open-rafter pergola frame
• The supporting posts and braces
• The pre-assembled balustrade sections
• The smooth timber handrails
• The required structural framework
• Assembly fixings

Tools, ground preparation materials, concrete, post supports and application-specific fixings may still be required depending on your chosen installation method.

Important Installation Information

• The structure must be installed on a stable, suitably prepared and level area.
• The deck frame should be adequately supported and kept clear of standing water.
• The pergola posts must be securely fixed using a method appropriate for the surface and intended use.
• Check for pipes, cables and drainage before excavating or installing ground fixings.
• The open-rafter roof is not waterproof and should not be treated as a solid garden shelter.
• The timber balustrades help define the decking edges but should not be assumed to meet building-control guarding requirements for elevated installations without professional assessment.
• Planning and building requirements can vary by property and location, particularly for raised decking or structures installed close to boundaries.
• Furniture, plants, lighting and decorative accessories are not included unless specifically stated.

A Complete Outdoor Living Feature

The V.11 Rectangular Pergola and Decking Kit offers more than a standalone garden canopy. It creates an attractive, usable platform where furniture feels properly positioned, guests can gather comfortably and your outdoor space gains a stronger sense of structure.

With substantial pressure-treated timber, coordinated balustrades and a British made-to-order design, it is an excellent choice for creating a finished garden seating area that can be enjoyed throughout the warmer months.
