Modern Pergola Installation Guide
STEP 7 – INSTALL PURLIN HOLDERS
a) First, install one of the outside
purlin holders (2" x 3 ½") to your
box beam. Measure the correct
length of these according to
figure 7a. –
IMPORTANT -
Make sure to consider which
direction you would like to
purlins to angle to provide your
desired amount of shade.
b) If necessary, cut outside
purlin holders to fit tightly
between the posts as in Figure
7a.
IMPORTANT -
cut each
holder from the side marked
CUT END. If you cut the
wrong end it will be difficult
to later line up the holes.
c) Attach outside purlin holder
to the box beam using the
fasteners labeled "outside
purlin holder to box beam."
Make sure the height of the
top of the holder matches
the top of the beam.
d) Install 5/8" plugs into the holes
on the outside purlin holder.
e) If necessary, measure and
cut inside purlin holders (1 ¾"
square) to fit on the top of each
rafter. Make sure to cut from
the end labeled CUT END.
f) Using the fasteners labeled
"inside purlin holders to
rafter", Install these 1 ¾"
purlin holders on top of
each rafter.
IMPORTANT -
a. Be careful not to
OVERTIGHTEN these screw
as they can crack the purlin
holder. It is helpful to turn
down the speed of your drill.
b. Make sure purlin holes are
angled the same direction
as the outside purlin holder.
c. Make sure that your screws
are spaced BETWEEN the
holes for the purlins.
d. Install a screw near each
end and one about every
2’ along the purlin holder.
It is helpful to count the
number of holes on the
holder and space the
screws evenly between
g) DO NOT install the remaining
outside purlin holder on the
other end. This happens AFTER
the purlins are installed.
