Retractable Pergola Awnings can change the whole nature of your patio structure!
Our whole concept of outdoor living has changed in the last 5 years. People want livable spaces with indoor comforts, and one of the most popular outdoor living installations is the pergola. Pergolas define a space with a combination of structure and openness. It's always been easy to hang patio shades at the sides to increase shade and comfort, but the various styles of open, louvered tops have still made using your "covered" patio space challenging and uncomfortable at certain times of day, depending on exposure. Retractable pergola awnings solve this problem, providing on-demand shade when it is needed and retracting to restore the open-air feeling of the structure when it is not. Problem times:
- Midday when the sun is directly or almost directly overhead.
- Afternoon if your patio faces west
- Morning if your patio faces east
2 styles to meet shading needs of every deck or patio
- Pinnacle One (with legs to create its own structure)
- Pinnacle Two (over existing structure) to meet shading needs of every deck or patio.
