STEP 1

-Determine the location for your pergola and mark the outer edges by snapping a chalk line the length of the headers along the

outer edge. Turn 90 degrees and snap a chalk line the length of your rafters beginning at the end of the previous chalk line.

Repeat to close the square.

-Locate the center of the posts by subtracting the desired overhang from the overall dimensions and snap four chalk lines

accordingly (see Fig. 1-1). NOTE: If drawings were received with your order, use those as the guide.

NOTE: If installing fiberglass columns, skip to Step 4 now and return to this step later.

-Depending on the available surface or local building codes, there are three post mounting options.

Option 1 - If your pergola has the standard post mounting brackets, anchor them at the intersection of two centerlines by

drilling (4) 3/8" diameter holes and embedding (4) lag screw inserts. Then, attach the brackets to the surface using (4)

1/4" x 1 1/2" lag screws or appropriate anchors. Attach a post to each bracket using (4) #12 x 1 1/4" HWH #5 Tek screws

(see Fig. 1-2).

Option 2 - If your pergola has the heavy duty mounting brackets, anchor them at the intersection of two centerlines by drilling

(4) holes for anchor bolts (not included, hole size will vary). Attach the bracket to the surface using (4) appropriate anchor

bolts. Attach a post to each bracket using (2) 3/8" x 3 1/2" bolts (see Fig. 1-3). NOTE: If installing post side plates, only one

bolt is required for the post to bracket connection. Run the bolt the same direction the header will run.

Option 3 - If you plan to bury the posts, start by digging a hole approximately 12" diameter and 30" deep. Place rock 6" deep

in the bottom of the hole and drop the post in. Add or remove rocks as necessary to achieve the desired post height above

ground. Fill the hole with a pre-mix of cement, aggregate, and water. Check the post on all sides with a carpenters level to

make sure it is plumb. (see Fig. 1-4). NOTE: Hole size and concrete mix must comply with local building codes.
