Framola™ Pergola Straight T Bracket

The Framola system is designed to make the construction and installation of Pergolas and Garden Structures as simple as possible. This Straight T-Shaped Bracket is suitable for connecting 4 pieces of wood to make a multi-bay Pergola, Pagoda or Gazebo. It can connect an upright post and 3 horizontal posts, forming a T shape at the top.

We offer 3 different sizes, with one for 3"/75mm timber or wood posts, one for 4”/100mm timber or wood posts and one for 6”/150mm posts. It is essential that you choose the right size for your fence posts, as the bracket may overhang the edges of the timber, or may not offer enough strength.

You also receive 2 Internal L-Brackets which are suitable for strengthening the internal joins between the timber fence posts, ensuring a strong installation all round.

The T-Bracket features 14, carefully positioned, “staggered” screw holes to allow the screws not to collide when installing with other parts of the Framola kit. Each screw hole is 7.5mm wide to comfortably allow for timber railway sleeper screws to be used.

As with other Framola products, this Pergola Straight Bracket comes with a textured black finish, which is both pleasing in appearance, as well as helping the outer of the bracket remain durable and hard-wearing. The bracket itself is made using 2.5mm Heavy Duty Galvanised Steel, which will remain rust-free forever, even in the event of the coating being damaged.

Installation Tips

Ensure that the upright beam on the pergola is flush straight with the top part of the bracket. The width of the wood will be the same as the lower part of the bracket so is simple to line up horizontally.
The two horizontal beams should be pushed towards both the upright and the edges of the bracket to ensure it is flush.
The final horizontal beam should be pushed up flush against the upright, once again using the small portion of the bracket to line up the position of the wood.
The internal L-Brackets should then be screwed to the internal joins of the wood to ensure a secure installation.
