An Electric Pergola revolutionizes outdoor living by combining cutting-edge technology with elegant design. These motorized structures feature retractable louvers or roofs, allowing precise control over sunlight and ventilation. Ideal for patios, decks, and gardens, they offer smart shade solutions while enhancing property value.

Why Choose an Electric Pergola?

Modern Electric Pergolas outperform traditional models with:

• Weather adaptability (block 99% UV rays when closed)
• App-controlled operation (works with Alexa/Google Home)
• Energy savings (reduce AC usage by up to 30% in shaded areas)

Key Features of Motorized Pergolas

Top-tier systems include:

• Durable aluminum frames (20+ year lifespan)
• Rain sensors for automatic closure
• Integrated LED lighting systems

Installation Process (5 Steps)

Professional installation ensures optimal performance:

1. Site evaluation (check ground stability & sun patterns)
2. Custom design (choose louver angle & size)
3. Electrical prep (requires 20-amp circuit)
4. Frame assembly (3-5 day process)
5. Smart system calibration (test sensors & app connectivity)
