CRAFTING YOUR LEGACY

3 Timber Frame Pavalion Kits

Forget the flimsy aluminum pergolas and the cheap, big-box store pop-ups that blow away in the first major storm. You are looking for something permanent. You want a structure built with sweat, precision, and unapologetic American craftsmanship.

Our timber frame pavilions are milled right here in our Alabama facility using massive, solid wood and centuries-old mortise-and-tenon joinery. Whether you are hosting a neighborhood barbecue, sheltering your outdoor kitchen, or just enjoying a quiet morning coffee, these pavilions are built to stand heavy and hold true for generations.

The Lineup: Which Pavilion Fits Space?

We offer three distinct pavilion styles. Each one is crafted with the same unyielding standards and sub-millimeter CNC precision, but they are built for different budgets and aesthetics.

Pavilion Model The Design  Price Tier Why Choose This One?
The Craftsman Straight lines, no frills, pure function. Entry You want authentic timber frame strength at our most budget-friendly price point.
The Liberty Classic, bold, and traditional. Massive timbers. Mid You want the ultimate, heavy-duty anchor for permanent outdoor living and dining.
The Whippoorwill Southern elegance, sweeping curved braces. Premium You want a high-end architectural masterpiece and are willing to invest in the extra craftsmanship.

Let’s Talk Pricing: What Drives the Cost?

A real timber frame structure is a major investment in your property, and we believe in straight talk when it comes to your money. If you are shopping around, here is exactly what will drive the price of your pavilion up or down:

  • The Model Complexity: The Craftsman is our most affordable option because straight lines require less time on our CNC machines and create less wood waste. The Whippoorwill costs the most because its elegant, curved knee braces require larger cuts of premium timber and significantly more milling time.
  • The Wood Species: High-grade Southern Yellow Pine is our standard. It is tough, locally sourced, and highly affordable. If your eye prefers it, upgrading to Douglas Fir, Cypress, White Oak, or White Pine will increase your final price. (Note: Premium woods like Cypress are naturally resistant to rot and insects, making them a great long-term investment for humid climates).
  • The Footprint: Naturally, a 12×12 pavilion will cost less in materials than a massive 20×40 event structure.

How It Works: Ready-to-Raise Kits vs. Professional Install

We bridge the gap between old-world craftsmanship and modern efficiency. Every beam is precision-cut, drilled, housed, and labeled before it ever leaves our shop.

  • The DIY “Ready-to-Build” Kit: You get the complete timber frame, wooden pegs, specialized timber screws, and an interactive 3D HTML assembly guide you can spin and zoom on your phone. Because our CNC machine cuts every joint to sub-millimeter perfection, the timbers slide together smoothly on-site. It’s the perfect challenge for a capable local contractor or a dedicated DIY crew.

The “Done-For-You” Installation: Don’t want to install the timbers yourself?. Our professional, experienced crew can come directly to your site to handle the heavy lifting, the precision pegging, and the full assembly.
