What makes up the timber kit?

  • Posts are the upright supports.
  • Beams are the main horizontal timbers attached to the posts.
  • Rafters form the middle layer and run across the beams.
  • Battens form the top layer and run in the same direction as the beams.

How to plan your order

  1. Measure the face width across the front and the side depth from front to back.
  2. Choose attached (AS) or freestanding (FSS).
  3. Choose your preferred timber and note the end pattern code.
  4. Send your dimensions, postcode and a photo or sketch of the location so we can discuss the kit and price.

Before ordering, check the proposed location, fixings and any approval requirements with your installer and local council.

Timber arbours at Sutherland House

For Shaynna Blaze’s Country Home Rescue restoration in Kyneton, Karem supplied two timber arbours, one over the pedestrian gate and one over the garden bench. See the Sutherland House project story for the context.

Pergola kit questions

Can the width and depth be different?

Yes. The catalogue asks you to select the face width and side depth separately. Send both measurements when you enquire.

Can I order a size outside the catalogue?

Yes. Send the overall dimensions and indicate whether the kit will be attached or freestanding so Karem can discuss a custom kit.

Can I order just the decorative timber ends?

Yes. The brochure lists separate end patterns EP1 to EP15. Quote the pattern code when enquiring.

How do I get a price?

Use the price table above for a standard square kit. For a different size or configuration, send the width, depth, style, timber, end pattern and postcode through the Karem enquiry page.
