Layouts for Divi: 4 Free and Premium Sources Compared

The best layouts for Divi come from four places. Divihat suits freelancers and agencies that want premium Divi 5 designs with client-ready licensing. Divi’s built-in library suits beginners who want free, low-risk starting points. The Layouts for Divi plugin and DiviFlash’s free packs suit site owners on a budget who need more variety. A good source gives you layouts that import cleanly, fit your niche, and carry usage rights that match your project.

Starting a page from a blank canvas eats hours, and clients rarely pay for time spent staring at an empty section. Premade layouts solve that, but the options are scattered. Some are free, some are premium, and some are tied to one Divi version or a restrictive license.

This list compares four sources side by side, from what each includes to what it costs and who it fits. Divihat sells Divi design assets, so it comes first, and we say plainly where the free options win. A short guide at the end shows how to import a layout and make it your own.

1. Divihat premium layouts and child themes

Divihat is the strongest pick when you build Divi sites for clients and want premium Divi 5 layouts under one license. You get page layouts, hero sections, wireframes and child themes from a single membership, so you stop hunting across five different shops.

Three printed page mockups sit side by side on a desk, with a key card resting on the middle one.

Divihat covers a build from first wireframe to finished page, so one membership replaces several separate purchases.

What you get and how it works

The library covers every level of a build, from a single header to a whole site. Each asset is made for the Divi Builder, so you import it and edit text, images and colors visually. The collection includes:

Know the difference between the two big formats. A layout covers one page or one section. A child theme is a complete website design, with the home page, inner pages and header already matched. Choose a layout when you need a page and a child theme when you need the whole site.

Pricing and who it suits

Licensing matters more than any single price tag. The membership includes unlimited website usage, client projects included, plus royalty-free images, so you can reuse a design on every site you build. Support runs through chat and email, and a 30-day money-back guarantee covers your purchase. The Divihat membership page lists current pricing.

This source suits freelancers, agencies and anyone who ships Divi sites regularly. It is overkill if you need one landing page for your own project. In that case, grab the free layouts Divihat gives away through email opt-ins, or use the free sources below.

2. Divi’s built-in layout library

Divi’s built-in library is the best free place to start, because every Divi license includes its predefined layouts. You never leave the builder to use them.

Five identical paper sheets are fanned out on a table, with a rubber stamp beside the last one.

Built-in layouts are the lowest-risk way to start, because they come with Divi itself.

What you get and how it works

The library is organized into layout packs. Each pack is a set of matching pages, such as home, about, services and contact, with original photos and graphics. It holds thousands of layouts across many industries. When you create a page, pick "Choose a Premade Layout", open a pack and click "Use This Layout." You apply one page at a time, so a five-page pack means five imports.

The same builder includes the Divi Library, where you save your own sections as reusable pieces. Mark an item global and a single edit updates every page that uses it. That works well for headers, footers and call-to-action strips.

Pricing and who it suits

The cost is nothing beyond your Divi license. The trade-off is style. Built-in packs share a similar look, so two sites made from them can feel alike. Beginners and small business owners get the most from them, and many designers use these packs as a base and restyle them heavily. If you want a distinctive look, pair them with a premium source.

3. The Layouts for Divi plugin

The Layouts for Divi plugin is a free way to add more page layouts, because it lives in the WordPress plugin directory and installs like any other plugin. Its listing describes an ever-growing library of professionally designed layouts built exclusively for the Divi Builder.

A plugin library adds variety fast, but preview every layout before you commit to one.

What you get and how it works

Install it from Plugins > Add New, search for the name and activate it. Then browse the library and import a layout into a page. The pitch is volume that grows over time, so the selection keeps expanding after you install. Because the layouts target the Divi Builder, you edit them with the same modules and settings you already use.

Pricing and who it suits

The plugin is free to install. Check the listing for the current layout count and for any paid tier before you plan a project around it. It suits site owners who have outgrown the built-in packs and want more choice without a new subscription. Agencies should read the usage terms first. Test each layout on a phone too, since quality varies from one design to the next.

4. DiviFlash free layout packs

DiviFlash is a strong free source when you want niche variety, with 50+ free layout packs for many types of business. The collection also lists 300+ page templates and 1000+ section layouts, all ready to import with a single click.

Three rectangular blocks of different sizes are being fitted together into a single stacked column.

Section layouts often beat full-page layouts, because you can mix them into any design.

What you get and how it works

Each pack bundles matching page templates for one niche, which gives you a consistent look across a small site. The section layouts are the real prize. You can take a hero from one pack, a pricing block from another, and a contact section from a third. Copy sections between pages or save them to the Divi Library, and you have a custom page built in minutes.

Pricing and who it suits

The free packs cost nothing, but read the license terms before you use one on a client site. Free does not always mean unlimited commercial use. This source suits budget builders, learners and designers who want a large pile of sections for fast prototyping. When a client project needs a polished result and clear usage rights, a premium membership such as Divihat saves you the checking.

How to import and use a Divi layout

You can import a Divi layout in under a minute, either from the built-in library or from a downloaded file. After that, your time goes into editing, which is where a premade layout earns its keep.

A premade layout is a draft, not a finished page, so plan time to customize it.

Import from the built-in library

  1. Create a new page and open it with the Divi Builder.
  2. Choose "Choose a Premade Layout" on the start screen.
  3. Open a layout pack and select the page you want.
  4. Click "Use This Layout."

Import a downloaded layout file

Most downloaded layouts arrive as .json files, sometimes zipped, so unzip the download first. In WordPress, go to Divi > Divi Library, click Import & Export, choose the file and click "Import Divi Builder Layouts." Then load the layout onto a page. Menu labels can shift between Divi versions, so look for the Import & Export button. Also confirm that a pack states Divi 5 support before you buy or download it.

Customize before you publish

Run through this checklist on every imported layout:

  • Replace placeholder text and stock photos with your own.
  • Set brand colors and fonts once, instead of module by module.
  • Compress images, since heavy hero photos slow a page down.
  • Check the page on a phone and a tablet.
  • Save sections you will reuse to the Divi Library.

Pick a source and start building

Free sources get you moving. Divi’s built-in library, the Layouts for Divi plugin and DiviFlash cover learning projects and your own site. Premium makes sense when you build for clients and need consistent design quality, clear licensing and layouts made for Divi 5. Whatever you choose, import it, replace the content, set your brand styles and test on mobile.

If you build Divi sites often, join the Divihat design membership and get layouts, hero sections, wireframes and child themes under one license, backed by a 30-day money-back guarantee.
