Make an instant beautiful front back or front covered porch in any size you need. The Del Norte Porch Pavilion Kit can be attached to most homes. In some cases, we may add posts up against or near the house if there are limited ways to attach, but where there is a will, there is always a way to create the added space you need. Send in a few photos of the area and we can then discuss your plans.
- Built your Way, your Size: An Attached Pavilion kit goes up in 1 day. Just choose the width and length from the standard sizes in the Build it Your Way section to the right of the main photo above. Then check out the wood grade and the More Options button or let us know if you'd like to customize in any way.
- Built to Last: We overbuild using the best materials in the industry. No need to worry about high winds, snow and/or humid climates. We offer up to 30 year warranties.
- Easy Design/Sizing Support: Complete drawings are emailed within 5 days of receiving your order. Our drawing process will help you easily see what works and what needs adjusting so that you don't have to figure out every detail before placing your order. We encourage you to take time with our design specialists until you are certain that every detail is just right.
- You Install or We Install?: Your Pavilion kit is fully erected in the shop for easy re-assembly and all hardware is included. Simply bolt the pieces back together. Depending on size, most kits go back up in 1 day with one helper. If you want us to do it, we'll send a team anywhere in the U.S. to install for you.
- Roof Options: The kits come complete and finely finished except for the final roofing skin. Depending on the design you select, you can add an Asphalt Shingle roof or a Metal roof. Tile roof is an option, but will require additional structural beefing up in order to support the additional, long term weight.
- Financing Help: We can build quickly, but we recommend that you order your outdoor pavilion kit 2 to 3 months in advance to give you time to get everything just right via our drawing process. You can also choose our 1/3rd deposit option at checkout to minimize up front out of pocket spending, and make 3 monthly payments.

All You Need is a Few Tools and a Friend.
Assembly is best done by two people and usually takes about half a day to a day, depending on size. Pergolas need a ratchet wrench, a hammer and a ladder to put them together. In some cases, you might need a drill to attach the posts into concrete. As with all our products, we preassemble pergolas in our shop to ensure everything fits together. All hardware is included and all parts are clearly labeled before it is shipped. We also include detailed step-by-step instructions.
Take a look at our assembly instructions below for specific details. If you plan to pour concrete to hold the posts, the project will require an additional half day prior to assembly. Please do the concrete pour a few days prior to assembly to allow the concrete to cure.
Installation Help.
Special talent is not required to re-assemble our pergolas. But, if you would like help, just let us know. We have our own team for installations in California, Nevada and Southern Arizona and a network of local contractors we recommend for farther afield.
Care: Your Forever Redwood Furniture will last for decades in year-round weather without maintenance.
Depending on the wood grade you choose, even with harsh year-round outdoor conditions, you can expect your furniture to last from ten to forty years without maintenance of any kind.
Being outside year-round is rough on any woods finish. The surface absorbs UV rays, pollution, constant variations in moisture and temperature and it also oxidizes. This is why most wood just doesn’t hold up and the surface color slowly changes towards a silver patina over the years. But, with Forever Redwood, you don’t have to worry. The silver patina is surface deep only (less than 1/64") and is not indicative of decay. Your set will last decades and is not compromised in any way by the surface color change. For example, we keep our display items as is without refinishing to show off this natural aging (we like the patina!).
Although Forever Redwood is maintenance-free, we recommended you take a few minutes as needed to clean by either hosing down and/or brushing/dusting away accumulated debris (no soap or chemicals needed). If you’d like to keep your set looking its best for decades, please go to: Care and Finish.
