Custom Pergola Lumber for Outdoor Living
Why Pergolas and Outdoor Structures Need Quality Lumber
Pergolas, gazebos, and other outdoor structures add beauty and function to homes, cabins, and commercial properties. But to stand the test of time, these projects need strong, durable lumber that can handle sun, rain, wind, and snow.
At Dark Horse Timber, we provide custom-milled lumber designed specifically for outdoor projects. Our timbers are cut to full dimensions, making them stronger and more reliable than standard big-box store boards. When you’re building a structure meant to last decades, the quality of your lumber matters most.
Popular Sizes: 6x6 Posts, 2x8 Beams, Custom Rafters
Every pergola design is unique, but certain sizes are the most popular for strength and stability:
6x6 Posts – The backbone of most pergolas, offering a solid base for vertical support.
2x8 Beams – Horizontal beams that create shade and define the structure’s footprint.
Custom Rafters – Cut to your exact design, whether you prefer a simple modern style or a decorative, notched finish.
Because our lumber is rough cut to full dimensions, these boards carry more weight and strength than dimensional lumber from retail stores. That means your pergola will look better and last longer.
Choosing the Right Wood for Weather Resistance
Outdoor projects demand lumber that can withstand the elements. Dark Horse Timber supplies wood that’s:
Naturally durable – species that resist decay and weather damage.
Pressure-treated options – for added protection in wet or harsh climates.
Custom finishes – cut and prepared to meet your design preferences.
Whether you’re building a backyard pergola in Salt Lake City, a deck in Colorado, or a patio structure in Wyoming, we help you choose the right lumber for your climate and design.
