An adjustable pergola costs more than other pergolas: Why pay more?

When it comes to buying a pergola, a traditional pergola with fixed slats provides shade, so why pay more for an adjustable pergola? Pergola roofs can be made of canvas, cloth or wood. None of these three materials are any more then semi adjustable. Arcadia adjustable pergolas have louvered roofs made of extruded aluminum that will never warp, splinter, split or rot – and the louvers are completely adjustable to a full 170 degrees. They can be fully opened, fully closed, angled in, or angled out. Adjustable louvered roofs have two distinct advantages: They allow you control over your outside environment by providing shade/sun and protection from rain/snow.

Control your Environment

Have you ever planned an outdoor party and spent the week before the party scanning the skies and weather reports? The weather in Colorado can change from windy to rainy to beautiful sunshine within the course of a few hours. A pergola with a louvered roof means that these kinds of worries are over. You and your guests are always protected from the elements. Is it raining? Close the roof. Is it hot and sunny? Angle the roof to create shade and capture the breeze. Is it sunny but a little cool? Open the roof. There is no need to create an alternate space with a louvered roof. Your outdoor needs are always met!

Extend the Outdoor Season

Let’s face it. Weather is a big challenge for a business with outdoor seating. You can stretch your staff thin by taking on extra tables when the weather is nice and the outdoor seating is filled, or you can send staff home because sunshine just got interrupted by a snow or rain shower. If you can control the roof of your pergola you can manage your seating inventory from early spring to late fall, or even the winter months. You can control the roof to let in full, natural sunlight. Yet the louvers are sturdy enough to withstand strong winds and heavy snow loads. An Arcadia pergola offered by Denver Pergola Systems lets you use your backyard when you want to!

An adjustable pergola may be more expensive than other pergolas, but the ability to better manage your staff and outdoor seating inventory provide a return on that investment!
