At Outdoor Shade Concepts, we install a variety of different types of awnings throughout LA and Orange County. Awnings protect from the rain as well as the sun. One of our most popular types of awnings lately is the pergola awning. For more information regarding different types of awnings, please visit our Product/Services page.
What is a Pergola?
A Pergola Awning is a combination of a traditional garden structure + retractable awnings. It is made combining columns, beams, and rafters to make the traditional garden structure, or the Pergola. Normal pergolas can allow for shade by allowing vines and other vegetation to grow on the structure. While this can work for some applications, most prefer to add awnings to their pergola structure.
How is a Pergola Awning different?
When adding elements of our Retractable Awnings to the Pergola we get an updated European take on a traditional Pergola structure. It works amazingly well with different styles of home architecture. The fabric used can also add color and style to your outdoor space.
So why should I get a Pergola Awning?
When deciding if you will get a Pergola Awning you can consider these benefits: Protection from the sun via the shade produced by the Pergola Awning, Wind protection designed to withstand higher winds than traditional retractable awnings, and protection from the rain.
