PERGOLA WITH RAFTERS AND SLATS
Step 5. Attach rafters to dual support beams with galvanized deck screws (2 ½ ") at 45 degree angles to
attach to the dual support beams. There are 4 screws used per rafter (1 per dual support beam). Make sure
each rafter's notches are snuggly into the dual support beams before adding the deck screws. The dual support
beams have lines marking the exact spot to attach the rafter.
Just make sure to stay to the markings on the dual
support
beams to keep the spacing exactly the same. Start at one end and attach one rafter at a time from both
sides and on both ends before moving to the next rafter. And repeat the process in all Rafters.
