Two pole palapas are wonderful over spas, BBQ islands, pools, or just for shade. The most popular application for this type of palapa is placing it over a outdoor kitchen since the shape of the palapa can cover most of the kitchen area and your guests! The Thatch is hand woven Mexican rain-cape, double layered for added durability. If you want to truly vacation at home, purchase a two pole palapa!

Our 2 Pole palapas are also known as; cabanas, grass huts, tiki bars, thatch huts, hales structures, chiki huts, beach huts, island huts, tiki shade, palapas and more.

Two Pole Palm Palapa over a BBQ Two Pole Palm Palapa over a BBQ and Counter Top Underside of a Two Pole Palm Palapa

Our 5 or 6 inch diameter poles extend to 2 inch diameter pine rafters. The thatching is hand woven Mexican rain-cape palm thatch.

Palapa sizes are an a rough estimate because of the following. Your 7x14 foot palapa will have a 6 foot x 13 foot frame and we estimate the thatch to overhand the frame by 6 inches on all sides. If you were to measure from one side of the palapa to the other including the thatch you should measure around 7 feet x 14 feet. We estimate all of the Palm Palapas to have a 1 foot overhang. All our Palm Palapas will have a frame 1 foot smaller then the advertised overall size of the palapa.

The shape of the two pole palapa is in the shape of an oval and the legs beneath are placed under the peak of each half round end.

The leg spacing is measured from the center of the pole to the center of the other pole.

Pole length does not affect the base price of the palapa.

Fire Retardant:

Palapa Structures treats each piece of thatch, front and back, according to the
manufacturers' specifications. A Certificate of Fire Retardantcy will be issued, if
requested. You may present to inspectors when required. According to the lab testing data available the treated thatch archives a classified A rating. Fire retardant adds a clear coating to the thatch, leaving the surface slightly more reflective. Please see FAQ page for more information. Price includes treatment of 2 layers of thatch, call to order for more layers.

Wood Selection:

Pine is a tough, strong, maintenance-free building material used in landscape
construction for its natural appearance and adaptability to a variety of architectural styles. It is used in many outdoor applications such as, framing, paneling, corral poles, utility poles, and railroad ties.

Cedar is known for it's decay-resistance. The wood is used for purposes requiring resistance to weather, such as roof shingles. Cedar wood also naturally repels insects. If you order the cedar all wood in the order that would normally be pine will be changed to cedar i.e. ribs. Only a very small supply of cedar is kept in our inventory. It may take an additional 4-6 weeks to get a cedar palapa if we need to order more cedar. Please call for availability if you need your palapa promptly.

Wood Treatment:

Treating lumber provides long-term resistance to organisms that cause deterioration. It extends the productive life of lumber by five to ten times. Wood that is exposed to moisture or soil for sustained periods of time will become weakened by various types of fungi, bacteria or insects. Both the light and dark stains provide similar amounts of protection for the wood. Darker color will protect wood better from UV rays. Custom colors available; to order online purchase the dark and contact us right away to change the color. If you select to have the wood treated all the wood will be treated.

Rib Options:

Our redwood ribs are 1 ½" wide x ¼" thick and weigh less than 1 pound each. Although they're small in size the advantage is they resist decay. The redwood ribs come standard on all Palm Palapas up to 14' in diameter. These pieces require that they be individually connected to the pine frame unlike the pine ribs.

Our Pine ribs are custom made and help make the installation of a palapa easier. The redwood ribs rest on top of each rafter, whereas the pine ribs are wedged between each rafter, helping to space them correctly. The pine is 1" thick and is cut out of our round stock; this is done to match the round rafter and main posts. Each piece is connected the the adjacent piece using a webbing material shown below. This upgrade seems to be a much sturdier option compared to the redwood (1" thick vs. 1/4" thick.)

Palm Thatch Roofing Layers:

Each Palm Palapa comes with two layers of thatch as a standard option. Having multiple layers of thatch helps the thatch to be more durable, provides better shade and water protection as well as adds appeal to the overall look.
