New to adjustable aluminum
pergola technology and wondering what all the buzz is about?
Adjustable aluminum pergolas are far different in looks, function, and
maintenance than traditional wooden pergola fare.
The Aluminum Advantage
Why does it matter what style of shelter towers over your head?
Why does it matter what style of shelter towers over your head?
1. Versatility
Unlike the static roof of a traditional wooden pergola, which offers some shade but is traditionally left open, adjustable aluminum pergolas offer users access to everything from full sun to partial shade and everything in-between. A patented interlocking louver design delivers 170-degree rotational flexibility, and the built-in gutter system discreetly disposes of rainwater, providing leak-free weather protection at the touch of a button. Miss those unobstructed sky views? Look to the Arcadia Slide. Similar to a automobile sunroof, this pergola addition offers both weather protection and an unencumbered sightline.

3. Ease-of-Installation
Unlike heavy wooden structures, aluminum pergolas are lightweight, easier to assemble, and better suited for locations where weight must be kept to a minimum, such as deck, balcony, and rooftop installations.

4. Care &
Maintenance
Properly installed, adjustable aluminum pergolas rarely require maintenance. Unlike wood, which requires regular upkeep like repainting/staining to prevent rot, weathering, and pest damage, the nonporous, powder coated, fully-extruded aluminum structure of the Arcadia withstands warping, corrosion, and rot.

5. Cost
Though aluminum pergolas require a higher up-front investment, they have fewer recurring maintenance costs compared to wood, making the long-term cost of an aluminum structure a must better investment.

8. Ease of Use
Adjustable aluminum pergolas are quickly and easily adjusted with the click of a remote control button or smart-device-driven iLouver operation. Adjust louver angle based on time or pre-set position. For the ultimate in convenience, optional integrated wind and rain sensing technology offers pre-programmed, weather-driven response, including ‘hurricane mode’ for reducing resistance and minimizing uplift in extremely windy conditions. American-made CE and UL certified motors are built to last and maintenance free, offering exceptionally quiet, dependable operation even in the harshest outdoor environments.

9. Beautiful and timeless
From the
first day to five, ten, even 15 years out, an aluminum pergola will look the
same: clean lines, beautiful finish, and perfect functionality. No other material: not wood, vinyl or even
steel can boast the longevity of an Arcadia aluminum louvered pergola.
Depending on personal preferences and style, the Arcadia can also be customized
to fit modern or traditional styles.
