- Weather protection: The bioclimatic roof on our structures can be adjusted for optimum sunlight, shade and ventilation.
- Optimal size: A 4x3 pergola provides ample space for outdoor living without overwhelming your garden.

- Aesthetics and functionality: Enhancing the appeal and usability of your outdoor space makes your home more attractive to potential buyers.
How Do I Find The Right Size Pergola?
Are 4x3 pergolas suitable for your outdoor space? Take time to plan your pergola for best results:
- Sketch the garden layout with furniture
- Use graph paper where each square = 10 cm
- Add 30cm for chair movements
If you feel that 4x3 may be a little too large, why not look at our petite yet elegant 3x3 pergolas? On the other hand, if you require a bit more space, explore our generous 6x3 pergola options.
How Big Can A Pergola Be Without A Planning Permit In The UK?
It’s unlikely that you’ll need planning permission for a 4x3 pergola. However, size does have an impact, and you’ll need to contact your local authority if:
- Your pergola is installed within two metres of a boundary and is taller than 2.5 metres.
- Your pergola covers more than 50% of your outdoor space
- You’re in a conservation area
- You’re installing a pergola at the front of your property
