Overview
A 14 foot by 10 foot cedar wood pergola kit with a trellis roof and a built-in bar top, sized for a patio, deck or garden entertaining space. It ships with a PowerPort for running outdoor power to the structure and is marketed with an all-season, high-wind durability rating.
A trellis roof is an open lattice by design, which shapes and filters sunlight rather than blocking it outright, so it works as a shade structure more than a rain shelter. The bar top built into the frame is the detail that separates this from a plain shade kit.
- 14 ft x 10 ft cedar wood pergola kit
- Trellis roof with built-in bar top
- PowerPort for outdoor electrical
- Marketed all-season, high-wind durability rating
Who it's for
Suits a homeowner planning a dedicated outdoor entertaining corner who wants a wood-look shade structure with a bar surface built in, rather than a bare frame needing furniture added later. Not a fit for anyone needing a fully enclosed, rain-tight cover, since a trellis roof stays open.
Pros and cons
- Cedar wood frame with natural rot and insect resistance
- Built-in bar top doubles as a serving surface
- PowerPort built in for running outdoor power
- Sized for a full 14 by 10 foot entertaining area
- Trellis roof filters sun rather than blocking rain
- Large footprint needs a sizable patio or deck
Performance notes
Cedar is the frame material, which weathers to a gray patina outdoors unless stained or sealed, and its natural resistance to rot and insects is what lets a kit like this carry an all-season rating. The PowerPort is a built-in channel for running power to the structure, useful for string lights, a fan or a speaker without cords crossing the yard. A high-wind rating on a pergola generally comes down to the hardware and anchoring called out in the kit's own installation instructions, not the wood alone.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Ashland pergola have a solid roof?
No, it uses a trellis roof, an open wood lattice that filters sunlight rather than a solid panel, so it shades rather than fully blocks rain.
What is the PowerPort on the Backyard Discovery Ashland pergola?
It is a built-in port for running electrical power to the structure, useful for lighting, fans or speakers mounted on the frame.
What size patio does the Ashland 14x10 pergola kit need?
The kit covers a 14 foot by 10 foot footprint, so it needs a patio or deck area at least that large plus clearance around the posts.
