Which pergola to choose?
There are different types of pergolas, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.
The louvered pergola
A louvered pergola is equipped with adjustable slats that allow you to control the amount of sunlight. This provides optimal protection against heat while still allowing you to enjoy natural light. A bioclimatic pergola is also highly resistant to the elements and wind, making it an ideal choice for areas exposed to extreme weather conditions.
The wall-mounted pergola
A wall-mounted pergola is fixed to the wall of the house, making it less bulky than a freestanding pergola and requiring less groundwork. This type of pergola is easier to install than other options, making it a great choice for those looking to set up a pergola quickly.
Other types of pergolas
In addition to bioclimatic and wall-mounted models, there are:
- The freestanding pergola, which is not fixed to a wall and can be placed anywhere in the garden.
- The trellis pergola is made from fine branches of climbing plants intertwined to create a natural, decorative effect. It offers a beautiful privacy screen, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your outdoor space while providing some shelter and seclusion.
- The wooden pergola, elegant and natural but requiring regular maintenance.
- The steel pergola, sturdy and durable but more expensive than aluminium pergolas.
Useful accessories for a pergola
Pergolas can be equipped with various accessories, such as:
- Covers: these provide protection from the sun and rain.
- Blinds: They help adjust the amount of light entering, creating a softer ambiance and a more intimate atmosphere in your outdoor space.
- Shutters: they provide protection from the wind and bad weather.
These accessories can be added to the pergola during construction or later on.
