Louvered pergolas

Motorized louvered pergolas, made to measure

A roof you can open for sun, tilt for shade and close for rain. Sized for your space and installed by our own crew in Philadelphia and the suburbs.

How it works

One roof, three settings

The roof is made of aluminum louvers that turn with a motor. Press a button to let the sun in, angle them for soft shade, or close them flat when rain rolls in.

Try it: switch between the settings on the drawing.

Louvers tilted. Light gets in, direct sun stays out.

Mounting

Freestanding or attached to the house

Freestanding

Stands on its own posts anywhere in the yard. You decide exactly where the shade goes.

Best for

  • Patios away from the house
  • Pool decks and gardens
  • Outdoor kitchens and lounges

Wall mounted

One side attaches to the house, so you get a covered space right outside the door with fewer posts.

Best for

  • Patios next to the back door
  • Decks attached to the house
  • Smaller yards
Where it goes

On a deck, by the pool, over the grill

  • Lit pergola on a raised deck next to a pool at night

    Over the deck

    Turn a deck that bakes in the afternoon sun into the room you use every evening.

  • Louvered pergola over an outdoor kitchen and bar

    Outdoor kitchen

    Cook and eat outside without worrying about a passing shower.

  • Louvered pergola over a rooftop lounge at dusk

Built for Philadelphia weather

Hot summers, sudden storms, real winters

High-strength T5 aluminum that doesn't rot, warp or need staining. Here is how it handles each season.

  • Summer sun

    Tilt the louvers to block direct sun and keep air moving. Add fans for the hottest days.

  • Rain

    Close the roof and stay dry. Add side screens to block rain that blows in from the side.

  • Wind

    The frame is rated for winds up to 87 mph, on 7 × 7 inch aluminum posts.

  • Snow

    The roof holds a snow load of over 28 pounds per square foot.

FAQ

Louvered pergola questions

Still not sure? Call 267-612-4055 and talk to the people who will do the work.

How much does a louvered pergola cost?

Mostly it depends on the size and how many side screens you add. The calculator gives you a ballpark for the pergola in about a minute. The exact price, with installation, is worked out on site after we measure.

Can it be attached to my house?

Yes. We build both freestanding pergolas and pergolas mounted to the wall of the house. We check the wall and the attachment points during the site visit.

What happens when it rains?

Close the louvers and the roof keeps the rain off. Add side screens if you also want protection from wind-driven rain.

How strong is it?

The aluminum frame is rated for winds up to 87 mph and a snow load of over 28 pounds per square foot. Side screens are rated up to 63 mph.

Do you install the pergola?

Yes. Our crew installs the pergola, wires the motors and lights, sets everything up and shows you how it works. It usually takes 2 to 3 days on site. Installation is not in the calculator price. Every site is different, so we quote it individually after the free measurement.

How long does it take?

Production usually takes about two months after the deposit. For a pergola by summer, book your measurement by March.

What warranty do you offer?

Five years on the structure, the motors and our installation work.
