14x11 Pergola Kits

14x11 Refers to the Size of the Pergola's Roof

All of the pergolas featured on this page have a 14' x 11' pergola roof covered by shade purlins, not including the end caps on traditional-style pergolas (which extend 9 inches beyond  the ends of the 14' beams and the 11' rafters, unless you opt for flat end caps). So for all of the 14-foot by 11-foot pergolas on this page, the beams and shade purlins are all 14 feet long (as they run the 14-foot width of the pergola), and the rafters are 11' long (as they run the 11-foot depth of the pergola), not including end caps.

Post Placement for 14x11 Pergolas

The posts (i.e. columns) of a traditional 14' x 11' pergola can be placed anywhere from 0" to 36" in from the outside edges of the beams and rafters (not including the 9" end caps), as shown in this diagram. Most customers choose to place the posts 12 inches in from the ends of the beams/rafters, which puts the outside edges of the posts 12 feet apart width-wise and 9 feet apart depth-wise. But again, you can position the posts anywhere from 0 to 36 inches in from the ends of the beams/rafters to create your desired overhangs. It's also worth noting that the overhang can be different on one side than it is on the other sides, if needed or desired.

For modern-style 14x11 pergolas (which never have overhangs), the posts are always in the corners. So for modern pergolas, the outside edges of the posts will be 14 feet apart width-wise and 11 feet apart depth-wise.

All Parts Can Be Trimmed Down to Your Desired Length

To make our pergolas as affordable as possible, we only manufacture the beams, rafters, purlin holders and shade purlins in 2-foot increments. All of the kits on this page actually have 12-foot rafters and accompanying purlin holders, which you will need to trim down to 11 feet (using a basic circular saw or miter saw) in order to create a 14x11 pergola. If one or both of the width/depth dimensions of your outdoor space is slightly shorter than 14 feet by 11 feet, you can cut any of the pieces down to the exact length required. So the 14x11 pergolas on this page can easily be turned into 13.625-foot by 10.75-foot pergolas (or whatever specific dimensions you need).

Reminder: Width & Depth Are Not Interchangeable

Please be careful when ordering your pergola. A 14x11 pergola is not the same as an 11x14 pergola.

The attached 14x11 pergolas on this page will attach to your home on the 14' side and come 11' out from the wall. For free-standing 14 x 11 pergolas, the shade purlins (which create shade underneath the pergola) must run the 14-foot width of the pergola. So to maximize the pergola's shade, you will want to orient the pergola such that the evening sunlight comes from the 14-foot width side. If your evening sunlight will come from the 11-foot side, you'll want one of these 11x14 pergolas instead.
