Expanding and Enhancing the Beauty of Your Home

Maybe one of the few positive things that came out of the recent pandemic was that both homeowners and business owners were suddenly eager to spend more time in the safer environment of the great outdoors in their own backyards. For that reason, Walpole Outdoors, the premier manufacturer of fencing, pergolas, and other outdoor structures, was one of those rare companies that actually saw an increase in business after COVID-19 hit in 2020.

“It’s been quite a phenomenon,” said Russ Clark, Walpole’s territory manager for Florida. “When COVID happened, it pushed us all outside. Commercial businesses and homeowners were coming to us because they were now using their outdoor spaces because of the pandemic. And this trend is here to stay, because people are realizing they have this wonderful space outside that they maybe didn’t notice before.”

In recent months, Walpole has been busy manufacturing, selling, and installing spectacular pergolas that range in size from 10 feet by 10 feet to hundreds of square feet, in a wide variety of styles including traditional, modern, and contemporary. The pergolas are all custom built and designed by Walpole, and its Florida pergolas are also hurricane rated to withstand our harshest weather conditions.

Walpole can also enhance the beauty of your home with an endless array of custom-made fences, walk gates, driveway gates, trellises, and arbors, all made out of AZEK solid cellular vinyl. Walpole is the largest fabricator of outdoor products made with AZEK, which has replaced wood in 80% of Walpole’s products.

“AZEK looks and feels like wood, but lasts indefinitely,” Russ said. “This is a really big deal, especially in Florida, where wood breaks down very quickly.”

Walpole Outdoors started as Walpole Woodworkers in 1933 in the New England area. The company had a reputation back then as the gold standard for a wide variety of outdoor structures, including fencing, lamp posts, and mailboxes.

“This is a real American manufacturer that has been in the business for almost 90 years, and Walpole is still known as the best of the best,” Russ said. “Our products don’t just enhance your space, they beautify your house with an addition that is absolutely gorgeous. And people are thrilled with the results.”
