Note: Post Mounting Hardware is NOT included in this kit. Please confirm with your
local building permit office to determine the correct hardware in your area.
If you plan to paint or stain your Pergola before assembly, be sure to scribe or mark the
top edge of Joist where Stub Joists and Ladder Blockings are pre-marked. Painting or
staining may cover up markings, making it more difficult to align components later.
