How to Choose the Right Size and Style for Your Oak Porch

The right oak porch size and style can make your entrance more attractive and practical. Start with the door size, available space and the style of your home.

1. Measure the Entrance

As a guide, aim for a porch width of around 1.5–2 times the door width.

900 mm door → 1.4–1.8 m porch
1,200 mm door → 1.8–2.4 m porch

2. Choose the Right Depth

Porch depth affects both comfort and appearance:

1.0–1.2 m: Compact entrance
1.5 m: Comfortable shelter
1.8–2.4 m: Extra space for seating, plants or storage

Therefore, choose 1.5 m or more when you want more usable space.

3. Match the Style to Your Home

Different oak porch styles suit different properties:

2-leg: Simple and compact
4-leg: Larger and more traditional
Encapsulated: Lower maintenance and colour protection
Gable: Classic pitched design
Pent roof: Simple and contemporary

At Timber Solution, we can create a bespoke oak porch to suit your home, entrance dimensions and preferred style.

Great company to buy from. Delivery was as stated and design drawings were sent for approval prior to manufacturing. Communication was excellent at all times. Assembly went with only minor hiccup which was our mistake. Certainly a 3 man job minimum for the main frame as the oak beams are very heavy. Would highly recommend this company

Superb quality product, accurately produced, good communications from Val. We have had to rethink our outdoor kitchen ideas of “rustic” because of the statement it made when we put it up. Our gazebo will have a Sedum living roof installed once autumn arrives. Would highly recommend to anyone. Thank you.

We are so happy with our oak Barn/Gazebo. Val helped me in the planning and was patient with me as I made a number of changes to the plans. Everything went smoothly with the delivery. There was a lot of heavy lifting but the whole construction build was undertaken by myself with the help of my son (and a gypsy lift for the beam!). I added a few extras for the roof - tongue and groove above the rafters, and also purchased oak facia boards and also designed some oak/rope lights which fit well with the design, this added to the overall cost but was worth it.

We are absolutely delighted with our pergola from Timber Solution. The quality of the timber and craftsmanship are outstanding, and it has completely transformed our garden. Val was a pleasure to deal with throughout—friendly, knowledgeable and always happy to help. Excellent customer service from start to finish. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Timber Solution to anyone looking for a high-quality pergola. Thank you, Val!

Wonderfull service from Val! The product is top quality with no issues on the install. Over the moon. We still have the protection on the straddle stones but the Pergola still looks spot on.

We had a tight budget🤦🏻‍♀️ My husband did his research & found Val from UK Timbersolutions who looked too good to be true😮....price wise, quality wise, & customer service wise. We didn't need to worry, we are so pleased with our finished product🥰 Val was always at the end of the phone, the oak is beautiful, & despite being miles apart, there was one piece of timber out of the hundreds that didn't quite fit....it arrived within hours, having been recut & couriered, super impressed👏🏻 Thank you Val & Timbersolutions, you truly deserve to prosper🙏🏻

Process couldn’t have been easier. Val always responded quickly and laid out all the options available at the beginning before I placed the order. Kit arrived ahead of schedule and was packed very well with every item marked. Instructions for assembly were very detailed and it went together easily. The lads I got to build it said it was the best kit they’d assembled and wanted to get other customers of their landscaping business to use Timber Solutions going forward. Now erected it looks amazing and should last my lifetime. I couldn’t recommend Timber Solutions more highly. If you’re thinking of buying something, don’t think anymore just go ahead with confidence. Thank you, it’s going to be a great addition to our outside living space.

I recently purchased an oak gazebo from UK Timbersolution and couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From start to finish, the team were professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. Communication was fast and clear throughout, and they provided a huge amount of detail in the plans, which gave real confidence in the process. Their advice was genuinely helpful and made a big difference in getting exactly what I wanted. The finished product is excellent quality – great value for money without any compromise on craftsmanship. It’s clear they take real pride in their work. It was also a pleasure to support a small and growing company that truly cares about its customers. I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone looking for high-quality oak structures.

Pavillion review I do not usually review items i have bought but this purchase was so exceptional i felt compelled to do so. My pavillion was bespoke, made to the overall sizes and layout plan I submitted to Timber Solution. The company was very tolerant and patient despite my many tweaks and alterations. They produced a very detailed set of drawings showing every component and outlining how the structure fitted together. When the pavillion was delivered, on time, it was truly a piece of high class engineering. You would expect on a one-off design of this size there would be one or two elements that need final adjustments and alterations. There were no adjustments needed at all. Every piece was clearly labelled and fitted together perfectly. It was straightforward to assemble and two people with a reasonable amount of DIY skill could carry out the task without expensive equipment The finished product looks amazing and i would have no hesitation in recommending this company

I decided to get an small patch of land behind my garage a makeover. It was just a potato patch that had seen better days. What I wanted to achieve was an outdoor kitchen and with that a sturdy oak framed cover. After many weeks of searching I came across Timber Solutions and discussed my project with Val. I must say my first impressions were that of professionalism and detail. We went through a couple of designs and finally settled on one. Well the structure is up and it looks fantastic. My guys, who built the frame, said that this is a very good structure and it was relatively simple to put up. For me it is the realisation of a goal that was 18 months in the making and boy, am I a very Happy Chappy. Many thanks Val. I will upload pictures later when the kitchen is fully completed.

I only generally review if something is very good or very bad. Fortunately this is in the former category. When I set out to replace the external oak stairs to my garage / annex, there is always a little anxiety dealing with a company that is a fair distance away. Will they do the job, will my money be safe etc. Well I need not have worried as Val at Timbersolution did a fantastic job, and at a competitive price. He was prompt with my initial enquiry, and had plans drawn up within a few days. Throughout the process he was always available to discuss any issues, and the staircase was ready as arranged. My builders, who assembled the staircase, were impressed by the quality of the construction, and I am delighted with the end result.

I wanted a good quality, chunky, solid oak pergola and did a lot of research before deciding to go with Val and Timber Solutions. The price point was very competitive and the communication from Val was great from start to finish. It was customisable to the overall size and dimensions of posts I wanted. It was manufactured and delivered to the time frame advised on placing the order. The added details or the champers really made it extra special. My fitter also complimented the ease of errection and the system used. All in all, a great product and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a special focal point pergola in their garden. Thank you 😊

There are many companies offering oak structures, so making the tight choice is daunting. The oak pergola is a beautiful addition to our garden. We are absolutely delighted with the outcome and feel it is great value compared to other suppliers. Val was excellent to deal with. Communications were prompt and very clear, Val always tries to be available. The delivery team Val uses are also excellent, top communication and turned up as scheduled. All round a really positive experience.

Highly recommended. My pergola design was not the most traditional as it was a difficult trapezoid shape with all sorts of lengths and angles. Not a problem for Val! His design, consultation and service was second to none. The product quality is superb. The build, tho tricky in parts, was easy to follow and as a result, we have a perfect construction. Really can't thank Val enough for his expertise, guidance and product delivery.

From the very beginning, Val has been exceptionally supportive, offering invaluable guidance and remaining involved throughout the entire process.

We would not hesitate to highly recommend Timber Solutions to anyone seeking superior products and exemplary service.

We are very happy with our two gazebos. An excellent service from Val, who was always on hand throughout both the design & build process. In our case, we had to organise our own build team & get involved with the inevitable aspects of the detail & snags & in our case, sourcing & fitting the EPDM roof. The end result is excellent! We would definitely recommend Timber Solutions to anyone.

Really cannot fault in anyway the service from Timber solution. Val from the start was great to deal with. Any changes I needed no problem. Delivery time exactly when he said it would be. Any questions answered quickly. Putting it together just looked at the design and matched the numbers stapled to all the parts. With the aid of two lift genies I put it up on my own. Extremely happy with the finished pergola. Looking forward to the oak ageing over time. Would recommend Timber solution to everyone, and would definitely use Timber solution again. Thanks Val.

We recently purchased an oak pergola and couldn't be happier with how it has transformed our garden. Rather than leaving it natural, we decided to go a bit unconventional and paint it black — and we're so glad we did! The bold color has turned it into an absolute showstopper, creating a striking focal point that beautifully frames our outdoor space. The quality of the oak is outstanding, and the craftsmanship is clear in every detail. It feels incredibly sturdy and well-made, giving us confidence that it will last for many years to come. What we love most is how the black finish adds a touch of modern elegance while still allowing the natural beauty of the wood to shine through. It has completely elevated the look of our garden, and we've already received so many compliments from friends and family. If you're considering a pergola and thinking about going for a bold, painted look, we say go for it! Painting it black was a bit of a gamble, but it has definitely paid off — it's now the standout feature of our garden, and we absolutely love it. Highly recommend!

I was very impressed. The design & specification process of the pergola was simple, with amendments to meet our client's requirements no problem. We were kept up to date throughout the process, and assistance with finding a haulier to bring the pergola to site was greatly appreciated. The quality of the timber work is excellent and the kit has gone together as expected. Will definitely be using again.

I can’t recommend Val from Timber Solutions enough. We had a tricky project in that we wanted to install oak trusses to an existing room. Val created a fantastic design and then recommended an installer to carry out the work. Val spoke with the installer in the lead up to installation to ensure everything was designed and manufactured correctly allowing for good installation. We are beyond thrilled with the installed trusses.
