If you prefer a shorter height, just let us know in the comment box at checkout. If you want to have privacy panels from the roof to the ground on one or more sides, you'll need 2 panels to cover the approximate 8' height.
- Lattice Privacy Panel(s) can be made long enough to fit between the posts of a 20' roof side (after taking into account the 1' overhang beyond the posts and the width of the posts, this leaves up to a 17' 1" distance you can cover with any of our Privacy Panel options). You have the option of adding as many panels as you like. We always prepare drawings prior to building any Pergola. So, you'll have time to review your initial selection and make any changes to be certain the Privacy Panels are located where you'd like and that they are the correct height and height off the ground, etc.
