Is your outdoor living space a little blah? Transform your yard from mundane to magical with a motorized louvered pergola. Louvered pergolas add beauty and versatility to any outdoor area, turning your garden space into an enchanting retreat you’ll never want to leave.

Define Your Entryway

Lead the way to your home pergola covered escape with a curved brick or cobblestone garden path surrounded by tall vegetation, creating a sense of mystery. A vine-covered archway and decorative low picketed or wrought iron gate offer a tempting invitation to your storybook outdoor retreat, differentiating this area of your yard.

Create an Enticing Destination

Nothing puts an end to an enchanting outdoor experience like relentless sun or rain. A comforting, welcoming outdoor shelter is the centerpiece of any garden getaway, giving you a safe place to escape. Get cozy, curling up with a good book and a cup of coffee or glass of wine, enjoying time outdoors no matter the weather. StruXure louvered pergolas offer so much more than shelter, allowing you to adapt your surroundings at the touch of a button:

●       Pivot louvers up to 170-degrees to the ideal amount of sun or shade

●       Open louvers wide to revel in the sunshine or stargaze

●       Quickly close louvers and engage the built-in gutter system for leak-free rain protection

  Enhance the Feeling of Privacy

Add visual interest and boost privacy with tall or climbing greenery additions, training vines to grow up a nearby lattice wall or fence, taking care with placement, and choosing options that will not grow to hinder pergola function. Incorporate motorized privacy screens or curtains into your custom pergola design, creating a secluded sanctuary. Motorized screens and curtains offer an excellent privacy and comfort feature, blocking the view from nearby structures and offering additional protection against the brutal summer sun, frigid winter winds, and rain and snow.

 Enhance the Ambiance

Add charm with pergola accessories like built-in color-changing LED overhead lighting and strip lights. Accent these with tabletop lighting, creating a glowing, otherworldly appeal. Integrate ceiling fans and infrared patio heaters, ensuring comfort and maximizing the enjoyment of your pergola-covered retreat year-round. Incorporate comfortable, inviting furnishings that offer the perfect place to relax and escape your day-to-day worries. Natural furniture accessories like tree stump or faux rock end tables, bird and butterfly feeders, fountains, and fire features add fairytale flair.

Add a Touch of Technological Magic

Choose from remote control operation, program your pergola from your smartphone or tablet using Somfy MyLink technology, or incorporate optional rain, wind, or freeze sensors, creating a pergola that magically responds to the changing weather on-demand.
