{"product_id":"retractable-pergola","title":"Motorized Retractable Pergola with LED Lights — Waterproof Roof, Custom Sizes","description":"\u003cp\u003eA retractable pergola gives you a roof that folds away. Open it and the PVC fabric stacks back along the beams, so the space is open to the sky. Close it and you have a blackout, waterproof cover across the whole frame. One structure, two entirely different rooms, and a button decides which one you get.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis one runs on a motor. You work the roof from a remote instead of pulling a rope or turning a crank, which matters more than it sounds. A roof that opens in a few seconds is a roof you actually open, rather than one you leave shut from April to September. LED lighting sits inside the frame, so the space keeps working after dark without lights strung across it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEvery unit is built to the dimensions you send us. You are not picking the nearest stock size and then arranging your furniture around it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eAt a Glance\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eFrame\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003ePowder-coated aluminium\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eRoof\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003ePVC fabric, coated on both sides, blackout and waterproof\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eOperation\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eMotorised, remote controlled\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrainage\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eChannels in the beams, water leaves through the posts\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eMounting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eWall-mounted with two posts, or freestanding with four\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eSize\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eMade to your measurements, units can be linked for wider spans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eLighting\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eLED lighting integrated into the frame\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eColour\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cp\u003eDark grey as standard, custom colours on request\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/7323\/5013\/files\/retractable-pergola_01.jpg?v=1793264753\" alt=\"Motorized retractable pergola with a waterproof PVC roof over a patio\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/7323\/5013\/files\/retractable-pergola_02.jpg?v=1793264768\" alt=\"Retractable pergola roof folding back along the beams to open the space\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow the Retractable Roof Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fabric panels run on tracks inside the beams. The motor drives them along the track until the roof is stacked back at one end, or pulls them forward until the panels meet and the roof closes. The fabric is PVC, coated on both sides, so the closed roof is waterproof and fully blackout. No light passes through the material, and rain runs off it instead of soaking in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA fixed pergola roof makes you choose between sun and shade at breakfast and live with that choice all day.

Against the house, the frame sits on two posts and takes its rear support from the wall. That keeps the floor clear and suits a patio that runs along the building or a deck outside a back door. Out in the garden, the four-post version stands on its own and goes where you want it: over a pool deck, a lawn, or an outdoor kitchen away from the house. Both carry the same roof system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/7323\/5013\/files\/retractable-pergola_05.jpg?v=1793264946\" alt=\"Wall-mounted retractable pergola supported by two posts against a house\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/7323\/5013\/files\/retractable-pergola_06.jpg?v=1793264958\" alt=\"Freestanding four-post retractable pergola over a garden patio\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eMade to Your Dimensions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWidth, projection and height are all built to the space you give us. Wider spans are handled by linking units in a row under one continuous roof, which is the usual way restaurants and hotels cover a long terrace. Send us the measurements and tell us what the frame will be fixed to, and we will confirm the layout before production starts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColour works the same way. Dark grey is the standard powder-coat finish and the one we keep in regular production.

A retractable fabric roof clears the sky completely when it opens and reads softer, and the blackout fabric stops light entirely. A louvered roof keeps a rigid aluminum ceiling above you at every setting, which suits anyone who wants the structure to look like part of the building.

The PVC fabric is coated on both sides and the panels meet to form a closed roof, with the water taken away through the beams and posts. We still recommend closing it during sustained rain rather than leaving it partly open.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDoes the fabric block all light?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It is a blackout material, so a closed roof gives full shade rather than a filtered light. That is the difference between this and a shade slat or mesh roof.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I mount it to the house?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, and you can also have it freestanding.
