Freestanding Pool Pergola
Freestanding Pool Pergola
These homeowners embody the American dream coming true. The gentleman is a retired
banker who now builds homes for needy folks by way of the Habitat For Humanity
organization. He created this patio then Called Baldwins for the pergola which
we installed.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
A year later we went back and added a Baldwin Retractable Fabric Shade. The shade system
is supported by a central track with roller bearings inside. Because there
is only one support, the shade cannot bind as it extends and retracts. The motion
is fluid. We like that it can be locked at any point along the way by tightening
the pull handle clockwise.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
There's a good feeling associated with selling high quality products. The customers
are happy and the feeling spreads. We are blessed with rewarding, productive occupations
here. We're happy to be a part of our customers successes. We didn't make this
shade system, but we were careful to select the highest quality shade system to
supply to our customers.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
The square columns with recessed panels are distinctive. The ones in the photo are
8" x 8". There is a boarder all around the recess which must always be considered
and never overlooked. If this pergola were to be built on an uneven surface, then
these columns would have to be special ordered and cut to exact lengths at the
factory in Chicago. These cuts allow the perimeter around the recesses to be consist ant
among the columns.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
Without the pergola, the patio would not appear nearly as inviting. Pergolas were
all the rage during the victorian era of the late nineteenth century. Around the
1920's the "Naturalist" movement gained popularity among garden designers and most
garden structures were removed. With all we've learned about the damaging rays
of the sun, I don't think we'll be repeating that bit of history.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
Thank you in advance for allowing us to work with you and create beautiful backyard
structures. It honors us to be a part of your project. Thank you, Max Baldwin and
company.
Large Scale Freestanding Pool Pergola
Freestanding Pool Pergola
This pergola is built upon concrete piers which were dressed in stone.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
The piers were capped with bluestone: 24"x24"x3" thick.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
The scale and architecture of the property required large 12" square columns with recessed panels.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
The large columns demanded large sconces and extra large 4x12 beams.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
Rather than one extra long retractable shade, our customer opted for two shade systems.
Freestanding Pool Pergola
This project was definately gratifying. Our mission for making the world more beautiful was
fulfilled.
The rigidity of the pergola is derived from the stability of the connection to the Earth. The importance of big, solid footings which are placed accurately, cannot be overstated.
The rigidity of the pergola is derived from the stability of the connection to the Earth.
Concrete footings: 14" Diameter minimum for 10" square and 12" round columns.
Our site plan will show a diagonal dimension. This helps you square the footings to each other.
Concrete pad: Should be poured 12" deep in the area where the columns will stand.
Stone wall: It's best to drill 18" deep into the well built, mortared stone wall.
Concrete pier: Wet set our 5/8" stainless steel rods into the footing then build the pier
Tolerance factor: Footings should be placed accurately with an overall error margin of less than an inch.
Conduit in footings: Bring a sweep into your footing with the center about three inches off center.
Deck mounted: Ask us for PDF drawings of best practice connection methods.
It is the customers responsibility to make sure that an adequate mounting surface is in place. The customer is responsible for
supplying relevant dimensions such as the depth and width of column centers and overall height requirements for the structure.
All dimensions, including overhangs and member spacing are completely customizable during the design process. At the time of installation, nothing can be changed.
Standing a column up onto a concrete footing. We previously drilled the footing and epoxied a 5/8" stainless steel threaded rod into the footing.

Testimonials
I was worried that the joints would swell and be difficult to assemble in the rain. I had very little difficulty. They went together very well. The workmanship on the parts was excellent.
John Mitchell
Max I want to thank you for the promptness with which you handled this problem. The way you have handled this speaks volumes about the quaility of your company. I would not hesitate doing business with you again.
Thanks again.
Bill Schlaepfer
We love our beautiful pergola! It's exactly what we wanted and we're really enjoying it. We've planted yellow Leverkusen roses and pink lemonade honeysuckle around the posts.
Ellen Bowen
Dear Max, The pergolas look great! The addition of rope lights was the key to the whole look. Thanks again.

These columns are beautiful. They'd look great in any setting, no matter how splendid. Thank you!
Tim Aurthur
Finished pergola is beautiful. Neighbors have commented very positively. View of yard from inside the pergola is difficult to describe. Can 'look through' the pergola lattices, but also 'look' out the 'windows' onto the garden. Very three-dimensional experience. One neighbor said that if he lived in our house, he would sit and read every day in the pergola.
Douglas Rose
Hello Max and Matt, I ordered a pergola from you in 2013 and have been just delighted with it. Looks great and is very easy to maintain with an annual pressure wash. See the enclosed pic of the pergola in the 'Low Garden.'
Ralph DeFalco
Thanks Max! I'll send you a picture today once we finish the install. It is truly AMAZING how well everything went together, especially considering the custom nature of the job and the need to build it against an existing structure.
Jonathan Sweet
Hi Max- everyone loves the pergola - its really great--thank you. And the chairs are so comfortable.
