Build a custom freestanding pergola up to 24'x24' with the Zen Pergola DIY Bracket Kit. This complete hardware kit includes all the laser-cut, laser-welded steel brackets you need — post bases, corner, middle, and central arm brackets, and roof rafter brackets — along with stainless steel screws. Choose 4x4 and 2x4 brackets or heavy-duty 6x6 and 2x6 brackets. Made to fit common lumber sizes with pre-drilled holes, premium weather coating for extreme conditions, and backed by a 5-year warranty. Shipped direct from Boise, Idaho. Lumber and post anchoring hardware not included.

• Freestanding pergola design — 9-post layout — supports a stable, fully freestanding structure with no attachment to a home or existing structure required.
• Any size up to 24'x24' (4 blocks) — flexible bracket system that scales to your exact desired dimensions within the maximum footprint.
• Choice of bracket size — 4x4 and 2x4 brackets (14-gauge steel) for standard builds, or 6x6 and 2x6 brackets (12-gauge steel) for heavy-duty construction.
• Traditional roof rafter style with optional overhangs — classic rafter-over-beam roof design with the option to extend rafters beyond the beams for an overhang aesthetic.
• Laser-cut and laser-welded steel — precision manufacturing ensures tight tolerances, clean lines, and structural integrity in every bracket.
• Premium weather coating — engineered to withstand extreme outdoor conditions for long-term outdoor durability without rusting or degrading.
• Pre-drilled holes — designed to fit common lumber sizes (4x4, 6x6, 2x4, 2x6) with pre-drilled attachment points for straightforward assembly.
• Stainless steel #12 wood screws included — all required screws included in the kit; no separate screw purchase needed.
• 5-year warranty on all brackets — backed by Zen Pergola’s industry-leading warranty for confidence in every build.
• Shipped direct from Boise, Idaho — direct-to-door delivery from the manufacturer.
