Are you looking for a way to increase your curb appeal? Have you thought about adding a pergola to your fence.
Here is the process on how to build a fence pergola.
First, the post of the fence needs to be expanded. We decided to redo our's completely but you could also add the extra on the top with a Kreg Jig pocket.
Here is what we are left with, an 8 ft post.
Next was cutting two 2"x6" like the example and adding the boards to the top of the post.
To give it the pergola feel, add 2"x2"x 24" boards to the top of the 2"x6" board.
Then apply a stain/sealer to the wood and the fence pergola is done!
