What is a Pergola?

 

A pergola is a structure for outdoor spaces that provides partial or full shading. Installed in gardens, courtyards, or roofs they create a comfortable area for rest and entertainment. These structures are not only functional but also give an aesthetic touch to a space.

 

At PROFAL, we consider pergolas as part of a larger system, taking  into consideration its smart features and structure nuances to maximize efficiency. 

 

 


 

Why Choose a Pergola? 

 

Pergolas are one of the most important guarantees of an inviting outdoor area. These elements can be both functional and aesthetic due to their advantages.


 

 

The main advantage of pergolas is that they not only create a shelter from certain weather conditions but also have a special look. Equipped with advanced coatings and materials, they provide UV protection, rain and wind resistance. Plus, thanks to their open and structured design, they give the design a unique touch and easily adapt to each architectural style. 

 

Pergolas do not lose their efficiency when the sun goes down. Built-in lighting systems provide continuous use without any inconveniences. This makes the space inviting even in the evening, making it cozy and relaxing. 

 

Nowadays many pergolas have remote control operation and electric movement systems. This allows you to control sun exposure or airflow with just one click. 

 

These structures easily integrate into the space with the help of RAL-standard color finishes. You can choose a finish color that matches with the existing architecture and surroundings. This flexibility allows you to create a harmony between pergola and window frames, doors or other structures. As a result, the design feels complete and aesthetic. 

 

Besides adding a comfort layer, these structures also increase the property's value. By becoming an integrated part of the architecture and design of the area, they make the overall image of the property more impressive and valuable.

 

 Tip: You can add plants near the structure to help it look more harmonious and inviting. 

 


 

Types to Consider

 

To find the one that is perfect for you, it is advised to take into consideration your needs,  the architecture and design of the space, and some environmental factors. 

Here are some must-see options․

 

If you need a shading element that has a modern design and high endurance a metal one is an excellent choice. This type is known for its low maintenance and is considered a long-term investment. A solid construction will protect against damage caused by severe weather conditions. 

 

 

 


This option is for those who are looking for fresh and flexible design options. The key benefit of this type is that it can be installed temporarily or semi-permanently. This means the shading system can have a fresher look and style each season. Plus, its lightweight makes it easy to transport and set up. 


 


The ones with sun protection systems provide shade and airflow at the same time. Due to its adjustable components, it is possible to keep space breezy and open by controlling the amount of sunlight. This type is an ideal choice for warm climates with plenty of sunny days. 


Tip: If you want to enjoy your pergola in more seasons you can consider adding sliding or folding doors. They offer more flexibility and can create a defined, separate area in the space.
