PERGOLUX

PERGOLUX, aluminium pergolas for the Australian climate

PERGOLUX is a company that designs and sells aluminium pergolas with adjustable louvres, engineered to withstand Australia's weather conditions. Its catalogue is organised into several product generations and combines manually operated models with motorised versions, as well as a line of accessories and awnings. The company presents itself as the world's number one pergola brand and states it has over 100,000 satisfied customers worldwide.

Series 4 models

The fourth generation is the company's most advanced. It includes three main families:

• Pergola 4: aluminium pergola with a manually adjustable louvred roof, no motors or wiring. Classic profile, SnapFIT channel for adding accessories without tools, available in 3 colours and 7 sizes, with optional screens and glass walls. List price from $4,799 (was $7,390).
• Pergola 4 Pro: motorised version with aluminium louvres, an evolution of the Sundream model. The roof is operated by remote, app or smart home connection, and incorporates dimmable LED lighting integrated into the beam. Available in 3 colours and 7 sizes, with optional screens and glass walls. List price from $6,299 (was $9,690).

Offered in 3 colours and 7 sizes, with optional screens and glass walls, and can be configured as a freestanding structure or wall-mounted. List price from $8,499 (was $13,190).

Series 3 clearance

The previous generation is still available at clearance prices while stocks last. It comprises three models:

Accessories and add-ons

The company sells an ecosystem of accessories designed for its pergolas: glass walls, screens, slat walls, LED lighting, heaters and the Everglow system. It also offers awnings as a separate line. The screens are presented as a premium, quick-install accessory that provides privacy, shade or protection from the elements. Glass panels, screens and heaters can be added without drilling thanks to the SnapFIT rails integrated into the fourth-generation models.

Technology and technical features

The Series 4 models incorporate several proprietary innovations. The RapidLouver system, with a patent pending, reduces roof assembly time by up to 75% using pre-assembled panels that fit together precisely. The SnapFIT system allows walls, glazing or heaters to be added without drilling into the structure, preserving its integrity and original finish. The RainLUX system optimises water drainage and reduces the operating noise of the louvres. The Pergola 4 Pro and Pro Max models incorporate an improved drip guard system that reduces noise and improves water management in rainy conditions. In the motorised models, the range and reliability of Bluetooth connectivity for control via app or smart home have been expanded. The Pergola 4 Pro Max and Pergola 4 models no longer require silicone during assembly.

Certifications and warranty

According to the company's information, all PERGOLUX pergola systems have been certified by a qualified and practising structural engineer registered in Australia, and comply with the applicable Australian standards: NCC 2022, NCC, AS 4100, AS1170.0-2002, AS1170.2-2021 and AS/NZS 1664. The products come with a 10-year warranty, sun protection and cyclone resistance. The company offers free delivery Australia-wide and support from an Australian team.

Applications and uses

The catalogue presents the pergolas as versatile outdoor solutions: dining spaces, poolside relaxation areas, outdoor gyms, entertainment areas and even as a carport to protect a vehicle. The company also sells heaters to extend the use of the pergola after dark. The modular structure and accessories allow each installation to be adapted to the user's needs.

Retail presence and customer service

PERGOLUX has showrooms and takes part in events such as the Sydney Home Show, where it presents its pergolas and awnings and offers in-person advice. The company provides installation quotes, assembly guides, video tutorials and an app for iOS and Android. The website includes a blog, an FAQ section and a help centre. Customer service is handled through a support service and a sales email.
