Functional and decorative arbors made of PVC are among the most popular outdoor garden structures. That’s because for very little money, time or effort they can add so much drama, depth and beauty to your outdoor living areas.

These versatile structures can be used to mark an entryway to an outdoor room, to transition from one area of your yard to another, as an entrance to pathways through wooded areas, or to enclose a bench or swing.  Arbor designs can be formal or informal and may also incorporate gates and floors.

Typically an arbor is a three-dimensional freestanding structure, often seven or more feet high, with open sides and an arched or flat roof structure.  It may be small and simple with just two wooden posts and a cross beam or larger and elaborate with decorative latticework. It may have a depth of only a few inches or it may run many feet deep, made of wood or synthetic materials. 

Plants: Dress up your arbor in nature’s best with gorgeous climbing plants. Choose them based on your desire for color, scent and screening.  Potential candidates might include: climbing roses, jasmine, ivy, clematis, honeysuckle, sweet peas, grapes, and wisteria.  Be sure to allow plenty of room for these plants to grow so as not to obscure the beauty the arbor itself.

Lighting: To make your trellis truly sparkle, weave strings of tiny white lights through the structure. If you plan to add plants to your arbor, be sure to run the lights first.  You can also attach lanterns along the main beams of your arbor or hang candles in votive candle-holders in wire baskets from support beam. Also, yard lights leading to your arbor and/or along the inside edges of the arbor are a nice touch.

Decorations: Decorate your arbor with holiday themes.  This will compliment your other exterior decorations, while keeping your beautiful arbor a year round focal point. In the fall consider decorating your arbor with corn stalks, pumpkins, gourds, and potted fall flowers. For winter string red berries, beads, bows and tree ornaments.  Big hearts and soft lights make your arbor a standout for Valentines Day etc.

You can purchase ready-made arbors, make your own, or buy a PVC arbor kit. Materials used for arbors include red cedar, bent wood, copper, iron, steel, and PVC or vinyl.  While some care should be taken to protect and upkeep most of these materials, PVC arbors are virtually weatherproof and maintenance free.  Once installed you may want to consider some of the following ways you can adorn and beautify your arbor.

We asked Jim Goodman, General Manager of Turnkey Millwork in Raleigh NC, just how difficult it is to install a pergola from one of their PVC pergola kits. Jim said that he and one assistant could build a 10’x10’ pergola in under five hours, so we challenged him to show us how easy it was.

Jim invited us to visit the Turnkey Millwork manufacturing plant, where he said he would show us by actually installing one himself. When we got there Jim was dressed for the occasion and ready to go to work. He was prepared to demonstrate the process for us by actually installing a pergola, right there in the Turnkey Millwork warehouse.

We didn’t want Jim to skip a single step, so he started by measuring the floor and actually drilling holes in the concrete to install the mounting brackets. Even though the columns, beams and rafters are shipped precut to the exact specifications, we anticipated that this process would be much more challenging than it actually was.

With only one helper Jim got started. In less than five hours they were done, and the resulting pergola was beautiful. Everything Jim needed, including the mounting brackets and hardware was in the kit. The pre-cut PVC meant that there was no on-site cutting, and no waste. This is true for standard sizes as well as custom pergola kit orders.

Rather than try to describe the process, we decided to create a short slideshow from the pictures we took. This 2-minute video captures the main steps in order and, although the process isn’t as fast or simple as this makes it look, we have to say it was much easier than we anticipated, and the resulting pergola was perfect!

Murray says it’s all about the process. “It’s not quite as ‘top secret’ as the CocaCola^® formula, but it’s a very guarded manufacturing process that HB&G has refined to perfection over the years.  What I can say about it is that there is a good reason why HB&G’s fiberglass columns are superior. Our proprietary process results in fiberglass columns that are stronger and lighter with a smoother finish.”

With an extensive background in manufacturing and operations, and a Masters Degree in Engineering Management from the University of Missouri, as well as a Bachelors Degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Oklahoma, Murray seems well equipped to continue the HB&G tradition of excellence.

Recently the company introduced a new line of high-quality solid rafter pergola kits. Tim Bobo, Marketing Manager for HB&G explained. “Pergolas have a long history dating back to the Renaissance period, but recently there has been resurgence in their popularity. We wanted to meet the needs of this growing market by adding a line of high-quality solid rafter pergola kits.”

A pergola is a framed structure without walls or a roof. This combination offers an unusual architectural blend that extends living space beyond the confines of the home. Pergolas add a welcoming airy elegance to gardens, decks and patios, enhancing outdoor living. Add a climbing plant such as bouganvillia, grapevines or wisteria and your pergola will also provide color, shade and fragrance for years to come.

The solid frame pergola kits feature PermaCast® columns, cast in a fiber-reinforced polymer composite for exceptional strength, and, solid one-piece composite rafters. “Unlike with wood, this combination makes our pergolas weatherproof, insect proof, and highly durable,” adds Tim Bobo.

HB&G’s solid rafter pergola kits are available in two standard sizes, 8′ and 10′. Both kits are made from high-quality cellular PVC. They include a complete installation kit, and come with four 10″ round PermaCast columns. Both the 8′ and 10′ kits are available in standard and premium sizes.

Throughout the years the Renaissance period has become known for the grace and beauty it brought to the world. Perhaps one of its finest contributions is the pergola. Said Bobo, “You just can’t believe the difference a pergola can make to the look and feel of your home or garden. When you’re ready, we’ll be there to help you choose the perfect one.”
