Questions We Get a Lot
A louvered pergola features adjustable roof slats that let you control airflow, shade, and light depending on the weather or your mood. A hardtop pergola has a fixed solid roof — typically aluminum or steel — giving you full, permanent protection from rain and sun. Both are built for year-round use; it really comes down to how much flexibility you want overhead.
Yes — our pergolas are designed with weather-resistant aluminum frames and durable roofing materials that hold up through changing seasons. Whether you are dealing with summer heat, wind, or rain, the structures in this collection are built to stay put and stay looking great. Just make sure the pergola is properly anchored to your patio or deck surface for stability.
Most of our pergolas are designed with straightforward assembly in mind — hardware and instructions are included in the box so you can get set up with standard household tools. Having a second set of hands makes the process smoother, especially when lifting and aligning the roof panels. We recommend reviewing the included assembly guide before you begin so you know what to expect.

About Our Pergolas
A pergola is one of the most rewarding additions you can make to an outdoor space. More than just a shade structure, a well-chosen pergola defines your backyard the way a statement piece defines a room — it creates a sense of place, a reason to linger, and a backdrop that makes everything feel more intentional. Pergolas are ideal for anyone who wants to extend their living space outdoors, whether that means a shaded lounge area for quiet afternoons or a covered entertaining spot that can hold its own through a dinner party. When choosing a pergola, the key things to consider are your climate, your preferred level of coverage, and the material of the frame and roof. Aluminum frames offer a clean, modern look with minimal upkeep, while adjustable louvered roofs give you the flexibility to open up to a blue sky or close off against a sudden shower. Think about how the structure will be anchored, how it will complement your existing patio layout, and how much natural light you want filtering through. The right pergola turns your backyard into a space you actually use every single day.
