Why It Matters

Sun, Shade, or Stars - On Demand

A fixed roof gives you shade but blocks the sky; an open pergola gives you sky but no shelter. A motorized-louver aluminum pergola gives you both - open the louvers for full sun, tilt them to cut the heat, or close them tight when a storm rolls in. Add screens, lighting, and heat and you’ve got a genuine outdoor room that works from spring through fall, with none of the maintenance of wood.

Custom Features

Build Your Pergola Your Way

Start with a maintenance-free aluminum frame, then add only the features you’ll use.

Motorized Louvers

Adjustable roof slats open, tilt, and close at the touch of a button - dial in exactly the sun, shade, or shelter you want.

Maintenance-Free Aluminum

Rust-proof, rot-proof, and powder-coated - no staining, sealing, or warping, ever. Build it once and enjoy it for decades.

Integrated LED Lighting

Dimmable LED lighting built into the frame extends the evening and sets the mood without a single visible cord.

Zip Screens

Retractable screens drop down to block sun, wind, and bugs - turning an open pergola into a sheltered room in seconds.

Built-In Heaters

Mounted infrared heaters take the chill off cool nights so the space stays comfortable deeper into the season.

Privacy Walls

Optional walls and panels add seclusion from neighbors and define the space without closing it in.

FAQ

Common Aluminum Pergolas Questions

Can an aluminum pergola handle Minnesota snow loads?
Yes. Our louvered aluminum pergolas are engineered for snow and wind loads. With the louvers closed they shed snow, and the structures are rated to handle our winters - we build and install to spec for the conditions here.
Do the motorized louvers still work in winter?
They do. The louvers operate year-round; closing them sheds snow and rain, and many owners use the space on milder winter days with the heaters running.
Does the pergola attach to the house or stand on its own?
Either. We build both attached pergolas (tied to the house over a patio or door) and freestanding structures out in the yard - whichever fits your space and goals.
Is an aluminum pergola really maintenance-free?
Effectively, yes. The powder-coated aluminum won’t rot, rust, warp, or need staining like wood. An occasional rinse is all it takes to keep it looking new.
