Are louvred pergolas waterproof?

No. They are rain-resistant. Closed louvres shed light to moderate rain through drainage in the frame and posts. In heavy or prolonged rain a little water may enter at the joins. That is expected for a ventilated aluminium louvred roof, not a sealed conservatory.

In light to moderate showers, water runs along the louvres into the channels and down the legs. Place seating toward the centre of the footprint and keep drainage channels clear. Do not treat the roof as indoor dry storage.

Both ranges use the same approach: close the louvres and use the integrated drainage. Pure has a split manual roof so each side can open independently. Luxe has double-layer louvres with solar LED and voice control, in 3 x 3m, 4 x 3m and 6 x 3m sizes.

Order a Royalcraft Pure or Luxe pergola online when you want a freestanding outdoor room without a wall survey. Choose a fitted Weinor awning from Crestwood of Lymington when shade should fix to the house and needs a measured install.

PURE in 3 x 3m and 4 x 3m. Luxe in 3 x 3m, 4 x 3m and 6 x 3m. All are freestanding Royalcraft aluminium models with solar LED lighting and UK delivery from the online shop.
