Posh Porte-cochère & Pergola w/Swing
Beautiful Old-World Craftsmanship in a white DIY Porte-cochère Kit creates a posh and welcoming homecoming. The Porte-cochère leads to the backyard where a stunningly white pergola with a bench swing, dining room set, and fire pit just beckoning to entertain and stay awhile.
A Porte-cochère is a covering, porch-like structure that provides departing and arriving occupants protection from the elements. Sometimes Porte-cochères are confused with a portico. A portico is a columned shelter over an area for human traffic.
