Classic Model

Classic Pergola in aluminum.

Freestanding or attached to the house, the aluminum Classic pergola has a roof of adjustable louvers installed on top of the structure. Wind resistance up to 160 km/h, and it also adapts to an existing structure or a commercial project.

Open the roof, watch the light come through.

Adjustable aluminum louvers, S-shaped, set on top of the structure: the framework stays visible. When open, they let in up to 82% of natural light. Five colours available: try them on the pergola.

What sets it apart

The Classic pergola has a fully visible structure, and that is what gives it its more traditional, yet airy, look. Its columns go wherever your space needs them. It withstands winds up to 160 km/h and can be installed on an existing structure, such as a covered patio.

160 km/h

Strength

Wind resistance, up to 160 km/h.

The Classic structure is designed to withstand winds up to 160 km/h.

On an existing structure, it can be done.

The Classic's adjustable louver roof can adapt to certain existing structures, such as a covered patio or a deck with posts already in place. Every project is assessed by our technical team before feasibility is confirmed.

Watertight

100% watertight, no seals, no rubber.

When closed, the louvers stop the rain. Water enters the channel of the “S”, runs along the louver, which is sloped at 3%, and drips off the end of each louver. Under the roof, the water in the pool stays smooth. Open the louvers, and the rain falls through.

Rain slides across each louver into the channel formed by the “S”, runs along the louver (3% slope) and drips off the ends of the louvers.

Frequently asked questions

The Classic model, your questions answered.

  • Yes. The S shape of the aluminum louvers lets them interlock perfectly when closed, with no seals or rubber parts. Rainwater is directed to the end of the louvers.

  • In many cases, yes. The Classic's adjustable louver roof is designed to adapt to certain existing structures. Every project is assessed by our technical team.

  • Up to 160 km/h.

  • No. It stays in place all year round. Before the first frost, simply lock the louvers in the open position to prevent snow from building up and keep up to 82% of the light.

  • Virtually none. The aluminum (6005-T5 alloy) doesn't rust or warp. A periodic wash with clean water and mild soap is all it takes.
