Simpson Strong-Tie releases DIY pergola kit
The kit contains all the fasteners and connectors needed for the build.
Simpson Strong-Tie has introduced its Outdoor Accents DIY pergola kit, which contains all the connectors and fasteners needed for crafting a pergola up to 10' x 10' in size.
The pergola kit includes straps, post bases and angle connectors from the Simpson Strong-Tie Outdoor Accents Avant Collection. The hardware offers clean lines, chamfered corners and a black powder-coat finish. The kit also includes the Simpson Strong-Tie structural fastener and hex-head washer combo, which resembles a bolted connection but installs as easily as a screw, according to the company. Free building plans and cut sheets for an 8' x 8' or 10' x 10' pergola are available online at strongtie.com/pergolakits.
“Pergolas are a beautiful addition to nearly any outdoor living space, but some DIYers may feel they’re too complicated to build,” said Bryan Wert, director of connectors & lateral systems for Simpson Strong-Tie. “This Outdoor Accents DIY pergola kit includes all the hardware in one box, offering a quick and easy way to elevate your backyard. Just add wood to build a strong, beautiful pergola.”
