Pergolas
Discover modern aluminium pergolas designed to create flexible shade and shelter over garden and patio living spaces. Choose from 3m x 3m and 3m x 4m designs with manual or electric louvred roofs, with compatible side blinds and slatted screens for added privacy and protection.
Create a More Comfortable Covered Outdoor Space
A modern garden pergola can turn an open patio or terrace into a more defined space for dining, relaxing and entertaining.
Positioned over outdoor furniture, it creates structure around the area while giving you more control over shade and shelter throughout the day.
Why Choose a Louvred Pergola?
A louvred pergola uses adjustable roof slats rather than a fixed roof.
Open the louvres to let in more sunlight and airflow, or close them for greater shade and overhead shelter. This makes the space easier to adapt as the weather changes.
Manual or Electric Pergola?
Both manual and electric pergolas allow you to adjust the roof louvres.
A manual pergola uses a hand-operated mechanism, while an electric pergola uses a motorised system controlled remotely. Selected electric models also include integrated LED lighting for evenings outside.
Choose according to how often you expect to adjust the roof and whether motorised control and lighting matter to you.
Choose the Right Size
A 3m x 3m pergola suits more compact square dining and lounge arrangements.
A 3m x 4m pergola gives you additional length for larger tables, sofas and entertaining areas.
Measure the complete furniture layout first, including dining chairs when pulled out, and allow enough space around doors, pathways and garden features.
Add Side Blinds or Screens
Side blinds and screens can add privacy, shade and extra shelter where you need it.
Roller blinds provide adjustable coverage and can be raised when you want the space to feel more open. Fixed slatted screens create a more permanent sense of privacy while retaining an outdoor feel.
Choose compatible accessories for the pergola system you select.
Choose Furniture for Your Pergola
The right furniture depends on how you want to use the covered space.
An outdoor dining set creates a dedicated area for meals and entertaining, while a sofa or corner set works well for relaxed lounging. Modular furniture gives you more control over the layout where the seating needs to follow the proportions of the pergola closely.
Plan the furniture and structure together so there is enough room to sit, dine and move comfortably beneath it.
Create a Defined Garden Space
A pergola can give an open patio more structure and create a clear transition between the lounge or dining area and the rest of the garden.
Powder-coated aluminium gives the frame a clean, contemporary finish that works naturally with modern outdoor furniture.
Keep the sides open for a lighter feel, or add blinds and slatted screens where more privacy or shelter is needed.
