A Gate Topper
|
|
As the seasons change so does the width of the gate opening, usually the tops of the posts are pushed in as the fence swells in the wet weather. This gate topper will prevent that as well as adding a nice touch to the entrance.

Build a Pergola with a Deck

A pergola gives a deck character and provides a focal point for decoration and design. Pergolas are great for vines, other climbing plants and hanging baskets. If you don't have a green thumb, dress the pergola with lights, ribbon or streamers for special occasions. This pergola makes a great weekend project - a good helper would make the job go much more smoothly. Lowe's is happy to provide this information as a service to you.

California Redwood Pergola
|
|
I have a particular look that I am trying to achieve with my home. I want it to appear that it has been here far longer than its actual 8 years. For this reason I use lots of recycled redwood and cedar which I milled on a planer. It provides a nice patina and the nail and knot holes provide the worn look I like.

Cedar Pergola Plans
|
A vital part of pergola construction is ensuring that the posts can handle the weight of the overhead beams. The posts are set in concrete footings you can pour yourself, or buy readymade from your building supply dealer.

Pergola - Pitched Roof
|
|
The pitched roof pergola adds a touch of flair to your structure and matches modern trends in house construction. You can use the same basic construction procedures for a pitched roof pergola as used for a standard flat roofed structure requiring only basic skill sand tools. As always, check with your local building vodes before starting construction.

Pergola Facelift
|
|
See a dramatic transformation in this episode of Weekend Landscaping as host Jessie Mack Burns tears out the front section of a lanai roof to create a lovely pergola -- and leaves the remaining enclosed roof for shade. Next, she installs lighting, caps the existing posts with new wood columns, and covers the floor with a colorful graphic carpet. Finally she adds several vine-filled planters and furnishes the outdoor room. Once you?re inspired by this episode, you?ll never look at your backyard the same way again!
