You’re going to love these new twin-size daybed swings from !

We’ve built several this year, and I can honestly say I’m sitting on one right now while writing this post. They’re comfortable, spacious, and perfect for relaxing outdoors.

These swings can be installed beneath a porch, pergola, pavilion, or another structure designed to safely support the weight.

Take a look at a few photos from our recent builds, and message Blake Designs if you’d like one for your outdoor space!

We recently completed this custom pergola gate for a Kirtland residence, turning a simple walkway into a more private and inviting entrance to their backyard.

Built from pressure-treated lumber, it features a solid arched gate, decorative pergola top, and heavy-duty outdoor hardware. Like all of our projects, it was designed and built specifically for the home and the surrounding landscape.

Pergola gates work beautifully for garden paths, side yards, patios, pool areas, and backyard entrances. Different sizes and styles are available.

If you have an outdoor space that could use a more finished entrance, send Blake Designs a photo and a few approximate measurements. We would be happy to discuss the possibilities.
