Introduction

If you’re working on a project that requires you to elevate an outdoor space, a louvered pergola is the perfect addition. As a versatile and aesthetically pleasing structure that offers the perfect amount of sun, shade or shelter, garden pergolas are perfect for turning the designated area into something special.

Whether you’re an architect or specifier, there are plenty of options available on the market. To be sure you can find the most suitable pergola that will effortlessly bring your project to life, we’ve created this dedicated blog.

We’ll explore the benefits of different metal pergolas manufactured by our team of specialists and we’ll provide five free pergola plans so you can include these much-needed structures into your next outdoor design.

Modern pergola designs and their functionalities

Modern pergolas made from quality materials, like aluminium, offer a unique set of benefits and features that can’t be rivalled by traditional pergola designs.

At Caribbean Blinds we have designed a full range of louvered pergolas, where each element has been carefully considered to create a premium high-performing external shading solution.

Some of the key features of a garden pergola manufactured by our experts include:

  • Constructed from corrosion-resistant, extruded aluminium for durability and longevity.
  • Clean lines with no visible screws or fixings, including galvanised steel supports contained within the post uprights for a seamless attachment to the ground.
  • A concealed guttering system built within the cross beams, connects to downpipes within the nominated post uprights for effective water drainage from the roof.
  • Louvered roof is operated via built-in, powerful and reliable radio controlled motors.
