 Attached Pergola Kit 

 

Thank you for purchasing a do-it-yourself pergola kit from Pergola Depot.  We appreciate your 
business, and we are here to help you in any way possible.  Read this entire Instruction sheet before 
beginning so you can get a feel for what you will be doing. If you take your time and follow these 
instructions, you can do it! 

If you are installing this kit on a concrete patio or on top of concrete footers, we advise that you use a 
6X6 Galvanized post base on each post secured with 

5/8”

 red head concrete anchors, which can be 

purchased from us or your local hardware store. You will need some additional tools for this. There 
are instructions on how to install them included in this document, or watch a video on our website 
under the help menu.
