Waterproof electric pergola

A waterproof electric pergola is a complete shading solution, because backyard get-togethers with friends do not have to wait for a spring day.
The most effective way to make use of your yard is to install an electric pergola.

It is also called a folding pergola or a smart pergola.
These structures can be operated at the push of a button on the remote or via your smartphone.

You have shade when you need it, without a fixed roof overhead. Or you can close the roof when needed, since it protects you from rain.

You can customize the pergola to match the colors of your home - you have every color available, in addition to wood-like finishes. You can also add fans and lights to accentuate the pergola or the surrounding areas.

What models of waterproof electric pergolas are available?

A waterproof electric pergola is a special solution for enclosing balconies and for winter enclosures for restaurants, backyards and house entrances. We give you a warranty on all parts of our pergolas – and of course on their high rain resistance.

Aluminum pergola with a rain cover:

An aluminum pergola with a rain cover is a pergola made of aluminum profiles and covered with PVC fabric sheets, also known as a fabric or Turkish pergola. The profiles of the pergola come in different sizes, such as RTS1300, RTS1400, and RTS1600.

The PVC sheets are divided into three layers:

1. The first layer is waterproof and sun-resistant
2. The second layer is an insulating layer 
3. The third layer is a waterproof layer

It is resistant to strong winds due to the aluminum profiles, each 25 cm apart, arranged horizontally against the direction of the openings.

A special model, the posts and beams of the pergola are made of aluminum with rainproof PVC cover, manufactured by the Belgian company SION.
The rainproof cover is very durable and comes with a 5-year warranty!

gutters to the pergola:

The pergola with gutters inside the columns and comes with a 12% slope. All the water passes through the front gutter and accumulates inside the columns. You can order the aluminum pergola with a rain cover at the press of a button, send a message on WhatsApp, and we will prepare a detailed price quote for you.

Prices and costs for a waterproof electric pergola

The costs of an electric waterproof pergola depend on the scope of work and the installation method. You can add a standalone smart pergola to your balcony or existing patio, or directly attach it to your house.

For an accurate price for your pergola, use the online design and pricing tool on our website.

The prices vary depending on the pergola's width and depth, the type of motor, aluminum thickness, lighting, insulation, and many other add-ons.

Winter closure for a waterproof pergola:

Once you've chosen a model of waterproof electric pergola, it's time to proceed with the winter closure, ensuring it's watertight.

We have special side-closure solutions for the pergola made of aluminum profiles. We also offer electrically operated glass windows that open and close through the pergola's remote control.

Sliding doors for winter closure are another option, with 10mm tempered glass and customized colors to match the house's color scheme.

If you're looking for something more practical and easily foldable, you have the option of a motorized screen curtain, a special shading solution that is also waterproof, with aluminum rails on the sides. The screen rolls down through the rails, powered by a strong motor with European technology produced by SOMFY or BECKER. It comes with a multi-channel remote control for full control over the pergola and side closure.

 In the end, is it worth it?

The answer is yes, once installed, it's a one-time investment, and the materials used for pergolas and side closures are of high quality and durable over the years.

We at Smart Pergola install high-quality waterproof electric pergolas at a reasonable price with a 5-year warranty, providing personalized service to every customer.

So where can water still appear?

The roof of an electric pergola closes completely and drains water towards the gutters. The only sensitive point is the seam between the pergola and the wall: when the pergola is mounted on the house wall, the meeting point between the profile and the wall needs professional sealing. Cracked plaster, uneven stone cladding or an existing gutter above the connection point all affect the seal, so we check them already at the on-site measurement stage.

What to check before installation

• Wall condition: the wall material and how the pergola connects to it determine how the sealing is done.
• Slope and drainage: the roof needs a slope that leads water to the gutters, and the gutters need a proper outlet.
• The sides: a closed roof protects from above. To enjoy the balcony even in wind-driven rain, add Winter closure – guillotine windows, sliding windows or ZIP screens.
• Permit: Whether a building permit is needed depends on size and location, under the pergola exemption rules and local authority guidelines – we recommend checking before installation.
