#1 27' DIY Trellis Kit

27′ solid wood timber frame trellis for a landscape divide.

While arbors serve as entryways, gateways and pathway coverings, trellises are a natural element for walls; boundaries, enclosures and privacy screens. Although a trellis does not provide full overhead shade it does provide partial shade for a few hours of the day. From a very small or narrow area to a large expansive surrounding, trellises help create the perfect landscape.

#2 Privacy Screen ShadeScape® Series DIY Trellis Kit

Western Timber Frame™ ShadeScape® Series trellis kits are designed and engineered, built using state-of-the-art technology combined with old world craftsmanship by timberwright artisans with the mortise and tenon dovetail joinery that interlocks without the use of nails or glue. There are timber frame architectural structures that have used the mortise and tenon dovetails and are still in use, centuries later, as testimonies of beauty, strength and durability.

The above ShadeScape® Series timber frame trellis has a Cove style beam and rafter end profile and is finished in the premium, high-grade, UV protective Black wood stain. The heavy-duty lattice work creates a fantastic privacy screen, beautifully screening the view from the neighbors without blocking the light. As can be seen, trellises work wonders to create an outdoor room or define a space, create a boundary, enclosure or outdoor wall for small or large areas in almost any backyard. An outdoor wall also gives a backyard an indoor secluded feel of security.

With a built in solid wood latticework a quality trellis can be a wonderful way to support climbing vines or vegetation for growing a vertical garden. Vertical garden grow structures can be constructed from a variety of materials. An all metal trellis is not recommended as metal retains heat; which is why metal is not a good choice for an outdoor shade structure or a trellis used for gardening. Natural wood is the best for keeping a natural temperature, warmer on cool nights and cooler on hot days which helps the plants to flourish in a healthier atmosphere.

ShadeScape® series timber frame trellis kit with lighting for swimming pool.

Shade for swimming pools can sometimes pose some difficulty as often the pool takes up most of the landscape and shade is an afterthought space-wise. The trellis here added some privacy but primarily created awesome lighting for night swimming all across the pool area.

Western Timber Frame™ offers incredible lighting and power options in the TimberVolt® power Series. A Western Timber Frame™ ShadeScape® series outdoor wood trellises, arbors, gazebos, pavilions and pergolas can be pre-drilled with a hole down the center of one post to accommodate any and all of outdoor power electrical and lighting needs.

The TimberVolt® series power post has an electrical chase drilled from one-half to the entire length of the post to hide and protect all wiring. The recessed boxes feature weatherproof outdoor covers for plugs and switches that are seamlessly incorporated into the actual timber post itself.

#9 Poolside DIY Trellis Kit w/ Outdoor Lighting & Extended Roof

Rock posts support the timber frame trellis that spans 8′ wide and 74′ feet around the pool. It does have a roof for shade around the swimming pool but as it has posts in a line and not four square across, it is still considered a trellis and not a pergola.
