Made entirely from aluminium, this durable pergola is weather ready for long-term use. The design is UV protected and therefore resistant to fading and other damage typically caused by heat, plus it protects you and your family from harmful UV rays. These hard-wearing aspects mean that virtually no maintenance is required and the pergola can be left alone as a stylish addition to your patio or terrace space.
Additionally, we are proud to share that this collection of pergolas is finished with a TIGER Drylac powder coating which offers improved protection over standard powder coating and is more durable.
This pergola is the perfect opportunity to extend your outdoor season. Thanks to the tilting double-layer louvres, you can switch between a closed, sheltered space, and an open top to allow sunlight to come flooding in. The roof louvres can be opened/closed using two separate gearboxes, allowing you to customise which side of the roof you want open or closed. Use your outdoor area even when the weather is less than perfect. This pergola ultimately allows you to choose between sitting in sunshine or shade, and provides shelter should it start to rain at a moment’s notice – typical of British weather!
There is a brilliant built-in drainage system which prevents you from having to open the louvred roof to let water drain. Any rainwater that lands on the louvres flows into U-shaped channels. From here, the water flows from the roof and into channels in the pergola framework. Once in the horizontal framework, the rainwater will then flow into the inside of the hollow pergola legs and vertically down to the ground. This genius system means that you’ll never see the water draining off of the pergola. If you were to open the louvres when wet, the U-shaped channels prevent rainwater from dripping under the sheltered area, and getting your garden furniture wet.
Our weather ready pergolas offer you a sheltered option for you and your garden furniture to stay dry in rainy conditions. However, in heavy downpours, there’s always a chance your pergola may leak. Just as you would with your house, we ask you to check the pergola gutters are free of debris to keep the pergola in good condition.
This pergola will require assembly and we recommend 2-3 people are required to safely lift and assemble the pergola. The build time is approx 3.5 hours and should be positioned on a solid and hard surface, like concrete bases. In order for the drainage system to do its job, the pergola should be secured to a patio that has a gradual decline. Most patios would naturally have this, in order for rain water to flow away from the house. Please ensure the pergola legs are securely bolted to the floor using the holes within each leg base plate, and secured using the expansion bolts which are supplied as standard.
Our pergolas do not require planning permission. However, if you are unsure we always recommend contacting your Local Planning Office.
This pergola design is a winner of the Red-Dot design award, showing just how perfect this would be for your outdoor space.
If you plan to match this pergola to existing aluminium furniture, the RAL colour code is 7015.
