The Four-Season Outdoor Room
What Is a Louvered Pergola?
A louvered pergola is an aluminum outdoor structure with a roof made of adjustable slats (louvers) that rotate from fully open to fully closed. Open the louvers for sunshine and airflow. Close them for rain protection and shade. Tilt them to any angle in between for precise light and ventilation control.
ROLLerUP’s louvered pergolas are engineered by Stobag in Switzerland. They feature motorized louvers that adjust from 0 to 135 degrees, integrated rainwater drainage hidden inside the support posts, and a certified snow load capacity of up to 300 kg/m² — the only pergola with this certification in Ontario. Add LED lighting, retractable screens, heaters, and ceiling fans to create a true four-season outdoor room.

Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a louvered pergola cost in Canada?
Louvered pergola pricing depends on the configuration (free-standing or wall-mounted), size, and add-ons (LED lighting, screens, heaters). ROLLerUP provides free on-site estimates with transparent, no-hidden-cost pricing so you know exactly what to expect.
Can I add lighting or screens to my louvered pergola?
Yes. ROLLerUP offers integrated dimmable LED lighting, retractable privacy screens, LED gutter lighting, ceiling fans, and heaters as optional add-ons. These transform your pergola into a fully equipped outdoor room.
Do the louvers keep rain and snow out?
Yes. When fully closed, the louvers create a waterproof seal. Rainwater drains through concealed gutters inside the support posts. The structure is certified to handle snow loads up to 300 kg/m².
How long does pergola installation take?
Most pergola projects are completed within one to two days, depending on size and complexity. ROLLerUP provides a clear timeline during your free consultation.
What is the difference between a louvered pergola and a retractable awning?
A louvered pergola is a permanent aluminum structure with a motorized adjustable roof. It handles sun, rain, and snow and can be used year-round in Ontario. A retractable awning is a fabric shade that extends and retracts — lighter and more affordable, but not designed for snow or heavy rain. If you want a true outdoor room, choose a pergola. If you want on-demand shade, choose an awning.
Is aluminum better than wood for a pergola in Ontario?
For Ontario’s climate, aluminum is the better choice. It does not rot, warp, crack, or require annual staining like wood. Powder-coated aluminum maintains its appearance for decades with minimal maintenance. ROLLerUP’s aluminum pergolas also come with integrated drainage and motorization — features not available with wood pergolas.
Do louvered pergolas come with a warranty?
Yes. All ROLLerUP pergola installations include a 5-year warranty covering both the product and workmanship. Stobag manufacturer warranties provide additional coverage.
