The Toja Grid Advantage

Modular

Toja Grid brackets can be configured in an infinite number of ways to create one-of-a-kind structures.

Durable

Every bracket is treated with three layers of weather-resistant coating to prevent rusting.

Quick Installation

Each Toja Grid section can be assembled in about 60 minutes.
No special tools are required.

Another benefit of choosing Toja is that it is an Ontario company (headquartered in Oakville, Ontario) and they manufacture all their brackets in Canada.

Toja Pergola Kits

We’ve made it easier to buy and install a pergola by pairing the popular Toja Grid brackets with our own dressed lumber. Our Toja Grid pergola kits come with everything you need to build your picture-perfect pergola

Our pergola kits are free-standing and can be customized by:

Open or Shade Sail	Keep the pergola open at the top with an optional rafter add-on or choose one with a Shade Sail.

Tips for Building Toja Pergola Kits

Use Two Screws Per Side

Toja brackets come with eight screw holes on each side; however, screws should only be installed in the two openings closest to the wood.

The other openings are to attach accessories. If you’d like to fill all the openings with holes for aesthetic reasons, additional fasteners and covers can be purchased.

Brackets only come with enough screws to use two per side.

The Best Lumber to Use with Toja
Pergola Kits

Toja brackets are designed to work with dressed lumber (also referred to as nominal lumber). Nominal lumber is not to size but is actually ½ an inch smaller than the stated dimensions. So, if you purchase a 4x4 true SOLO base, make sure the wood actually measures 3-½x3-½”.

For species, we recommend either western red cedar or Douglas fir because of its strength, durability, and beauty. You could also use pressure-treated lumber, but it’s more susceptible to cracking and warping.

Stain or Finish Wood After Assembly

We recommend assembling the pergola and then staining or finishing the wood.

This allows the wood to dry evenly on all four sides. As will all projects, make sure the wood is dry before applying a stain or finish.
When using western red cedar or Douglas fir posts, we recommend using CUTEK Extreme Stabilizer oil to finish the lumber.
