An electric pergola system offers you a variety of options to enjoy your balcony, patio, courtyard, or garden as if you have a living room outdoors. Electric pergolas regulate the temperature of your outdoor shelter naturally while protecting it from all the elements of the Israeli weather: sunlight, rain, wind, or snow.
Electric pergola price
The price of the pergola varies depending on the model, area, design, and the size of the profiles. So, before you order an electric pergola, you can plan it according to your budget.
- Pergola Size: The price varies depending on the size of the pergola. If we are talking about a large pergola over 25 square meters, it can save you several hundred shekels per square meter on an electric pergola.
- Pergola Model: The pergola model is a crucial factor in the price of the pergola. For example, a retractable aluminum pergola will cost you more than a foldable fabric pergola. The reason is that aluminum is more expensive than PVC fabric.
- Pergola Shape: The shape of the pergola has an impact. If you are looking for a pergola in an arch shape, it will cost you more because of the bending and thickness of the profile. It requires more labor and is more challenging to install.
- Surface Shape: A square-shaped pergola will cost you less in the model with PVC sheets. However, if we are talking about an electric pergola for a model that is assembled from aluminum, it's better if you had a rectangular shape because its maximum opening is 4 meters square.
- How Many Motors Are Needed for a Pergola? In large areas, for example, 10*5 where the width is 10 and the opening is 5, it's a large area for one motor, so you will need another motor.
- Adding a Thermal Blanket: Adding a thermal blanket to the pergola's awning made of aluminum costs an additional 50 to 90 shekels per meter.
- Pergola Design: You can choose any color for the profiles, rafters, and fabric. If you are looking for a wood-like appearance, it will cost an additional 5% of the pergola's price.
Electric Pergola at a low cost
If you're looking for a way to close off an area without losing sunlight and want a water-tight closure at a low cost, you must install an electric PVC pergola. The body of the pergola is made of aluminum, and the covering is PVC sheets,
3 layers of high-quality fabric sheets with a sun-blocking layer, a layer for insulation, and a water-tight layer.
This entire project starts from 1,200 ILS per square meter, with the price depending on the area; the larger the pergola, the cheaper it is for this model of electric pergola.
Electric motor
The motors for our pergolas come from two companies, SOMFY from France or BECKER from Germany, with no difference in prices. The motor comes with a 5-year warranty, European technology that connects to a smart home, easy and quick operation via remote control, and there is an option for operation also from an app.
What's unique about the SOMFY motor, which is very popular in the country, and you can find it in almost every house with an electric shutter
Calculating the area of the pergola:
To know the area of the pergola, we need to understand the area of the pergola and area calculations, by measuring the width & length (the opening) of the pergola.
If you want to know the area of a side closure for the pergola, measure the width & height.
