Great ways to use Pergolas in your garden

Apart from charming wooden gates, can you think of any other features that are made from timber and look lovely in garden areas? How about Pergolas? They’re beautiful types of structures that can totally transform the look of an outside area. Pergolas are created using sections of upright wooden posts that support cross-beams and they can be used for a variety of purposes. You can buy Pergolas in kit from direct from DIY stores and they are simple to erect features. Part of the fun of buying Pergolas is deciding how you are going to utilise them within a garden scheme. It’s easy to create an attractive garden accessory using Pergolas and here are just a few examples of how you might want to use a garden pergola.

Wonderful Walkway

Use sections of Pergolas to create a visually stunning walkway, fit trellis to the side of the pergola and you can grow vines up and over the beams. Pergolas are quite often used to create eye catching walkways and you can stain the pergola on any colour that you like. Buy a few kits from a DIY store that stocks durable wooden gates and your Pergolas would look amazing when placed along a garden path.

Perfect Patio

Some people like to use Pergolas as extensions for their homes, they use a pergola on a patio are. Pergolas look amazing when vines are planted which grow up the wooden uprights and when fitted to a patio area it creates a striking alfresco setting that’s perfect for entertaining. Use Pergolas on patios and you can bolt them directly onto a hard surface and create a dazzling feature in next to no time.

Handy car port

Another great use for Pergolas is a sturdy type of car port. You could fit roof sections to the Pergolas to provide your vehicle with a level of protection and the pergola becomes a practical yet attention-grabbing feature. Pergolas are better looking than garages and they’re very affordable especially when they are purchased from a low cost supplier of garden gates.

Dreamy decked area

Here’s something else you could do with Pergolas, funk up a decked area with a top quality pergola kit. On its own a decking is okay but when you combine it with Pergolas it becomes a standout garden feature. The natural timber of the decking compliments the timber on the Pergolas and you can stain both options to co-ordinate with each other.
