Phase 2 of the pergola is finally done and I'm so happy to have this dream of ours checked off our list! We've definitely been seizing the day more after everything the pandemic has taught us. Next in the backyard, we're going to be re-doing our raised garden beds with something even more fantastic and it may just happen to have an awesome built-in fountain! But I didn't tell you that.

Great job guys, beautiful!...What do you think about using the TOJA GRID brackets and post anchors with galvanized steel posts and in general to build the pergola?
@olivegreyavenue Жыл бұрын
That’s something I would talk to Toja Grid about. I had lots of questions through my planning and their customer service is great about answering questions!

Hi! I am having trouble finding 6x6 cedar posts, could you by chance link where you got yours from Home Depot? I can't find them on the website either. Looks awesome!
@olivegreyavenue Жыл бұрын
I can’t find them on lowes website anymore but these are the posts that will fit those brackets without having to shave them down: rstyle.me/cz-n/gt5ehgcxgr7

Toja Grid is cool but way too expensive for how thin the metal is. As the wood warps it will bend the 14g steel and $600 just in 2x4 brackets is insane. Regardless, looks great.
