Product Information
Full details
The Rutland Premium Pergola is designed for homeowners looking to enhance their outdoor living space with a durable and aesthetically pleasing garden feature. Its primary benefit is the improved strength and stability due to the unique slotted rafter and runner design, leading to a straightforward assembly process. A potential consideration is the need for specific fixings (bolt down or spiked feet) which are often purchased separately.

FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the pergola?
The pergola has a length of 240 cm, a width of 300 cm, and a height of 270 cm.
Is assembly difficult?
Assembly is designed to be straightforward with minimal tools required, aided by the slotted joint system. However, two people are recommended due to the size and weight of the components.
Do I need to buy feet for the pergola?
Yes, bolt-down or spiked feet are usually purchased as optional extras. A flat drill bit is provided to help you prepare the posts for these fittings.
Can I change the height of the posts?
Yes, an optional add-on is available to change the pergola post height from the standard 2.7m to 3m. Please contact customer service for details.
What type of wood is used?
The pergola is made from high-quality, pressure-treated Northern European Redwood.
Can I add decorative panels to all posts?
Yes, you can purchase additional cladding/pedestal panels per post as an optional extra if you wish to enhance the appearance further.
What is the weight of the pergola?
The total weight of the Rutland Premium Pergola is 112 kg.
Troubleshooting
Wobbly or unstable structure
Ensure all joints are securely fitted and all fixings are fully tightened. Check that the posts are properly secured to the ground or base using appropriate feet (bolt-down or spiked). Verify that the ground is level and stable.
Difficulty aligning slotted joints
Ensure all timber pieces are correctly oriented as per the assembly instructions. Minor adjustments may be needed; a rubber mallet can sometimes help gently persuade pieces into place without causing damage.
Fixings appear to be rusting
While fixings are corrosion-treated, prolonged exposure to harsh elements may cause surface discoloration. Ensure they are not excessively scratched during assembly. If significant rust occurs, consider replacing the affected fixings with marine-grade stainless steel for maximum longevity.
Wood appears to be cracking or splitting
Natural timber can sometimes develop minor surface cracks as it expands and contracts with changes in humidity. This is usually cosmetic. Ensure the wood is adequately protected with appropriate treatments if it worsens or affects structural integrity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Assembly is designed to be straightforward with minimal tools. The key step involves connecting the slotted rafters and runners. If using bolt-down or spiked feet, ensure you cut your posts to the desired length and use the provided flat drill bit to create a central locating hole at the bottom of each post. This hole will then align with the chosen foot fixing.
Compatibility: This pergola is compatible with various optional add-ons available from Rutland County Garden Furniture Ltd. These include options for a 5-degree slope, additional cladding/pedestal panels, extended post height (3m), and different types of galvanised steel feet (socket design, bolt-down, or spike). Standard ground preparation suitable for outdoor timber structures is required.
Care: The pergola is constructed from high-quality pressure-treated Northern European Redwood, offering inherent resistance to rot and insect attack. To maintain its appearance and extend its lifespan, it is recommended to clean the timber periodically with a mild soap and water solution using a soft brush or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Re-staining or sealing the wood every few years, especially after the initial treatment has weathered, can further protect it and refresh its colour.
