Louvered pergolas for Minnesota decks and patios.

What a louvered pergola does.
Instead of open wood slats, a louvered pergola has a roof of aluminum blades you can turn. Open them for sun and air. Close them for full shade and to keep the rain off.

Why The Luxury Pergola
Todd is the Midwest dealer for The Luxury Pergola, a family-owned maker that builds every pergola at its own factory in Indiana. According to the manufacturer, each one is made from 6063-T6 aircraft-grade aluminum with a powder-coat finish, made to order down to the half inch, and engineered for winds of 200+ mph on many sizes. It comes in four collections: Signature, Stratus, Icon and Paragon.
Installed by the person who sold it to you
Many pergolas sold online arrive in boxes for you or a handyman to put together. Todd installs every Luxury Pergola himself, and because his crew also builds decks and patios, he can make sure what’s underneath is built to carry it. See pergolas on decks and patios or the Luxury Pergola collections.

What is a louvered pergola?
A pergola with a roof of adjustable aluminum louvers. Open, it lets in sun and air. Closed, it gives full shade and sheds rain into built-in gutters.
Is a louvered pergola waterproof?
The Luxury Pergola is water tight in light to heavy rain when the louvers are closed, and the water drains through its gutters. Because the roof opens, it isn’t a sealed roof like a porch.
How are the louvers controlled?
They’re motorized and come with a remote, so you can change the angle with a button. According to The Luxury Pergola, the smart controls carry a 5-year warranty and the pergola carries a transferable lifetime warranty.
Will it hold up to Minnesota weather?
The Luxury Pergola is built from aircraft-grade aluminum, and the maker says it has passed building department review in every state. Todd sizes and anchors each one for your deck or patio.
