PergoLIFE: UK specialists in aluminium pergolas

PergoLIFE is a UK-based company that focuses exclusively on premium aluminium pergolas. It presents itself as a specialist in these structures, designed specifically for British gardens and weather conditions. The company offers a range of models, including the Lykke tilt and turn roof, the Horizon retractable roof, and the Cloud metal anti-rust pergola, along with accessories and composite decking.

Pergola models and specifications

The catalogue includes several series with different roof systems and warranty terms. The Horizon and Lykke models come with a 10-year warranty, the Sphere with a 5-year warranty, and the Cloud with a 2-year warranty. The Lykke features double-layer tilt and turn roof louvers, while the Horizon has a manually operated retracting roof. The Cloud is described as an entry-level steel pergola. Prices start from £999 for the Cloud, while the Lykke is priced from £1799.

Pergolas are available in 15 sizes, ranging from 2.5m x 2.5m to 4m x 8m, with larger beam systems for expansive gardens. The structures use bolts rather than screws to connect the feet to the legs, and heavy-duty metal plates join the beams to the legs. The double-layer roof louvers are made of thick-gauge aluminium with factory-assembled end fins, and the company states a snow load capacity of 145 kg/m² and a wind load rating of 12 on the Beaufort scale.

Accessories and complementary products

PergoLIFE offers accessories such as windproof side screens, priced at £999, and LED lighting options. The company also supplies composite decking, with each 2.4m board featuring Natural Oak on one side and Stone Grey on the reverse. In addition, the product range includes aluminium gates, pedestrian gates, fence panels, and bin stores.

Installation and delivery

PergoLIFE provides a nationwide installation service that covers assembly, bolting down, and fitting of accessories. Next-day delivery is available, and free delivery is offered across the UK mainland. Customers can choose their delivery and installation date. The company also offers a pergola configurator and a pergola selector guide to help choose size, roof type, and setup.

Design and manufacturing

The pergolas are designed in Britain. PergoLIFE states that its products are crafted by experts with decades of experience, and it emphasises build quality and engineering details. The company describes its aluminium pergolas as rust-free, low-maintenance, and suitable for year-round outdoor use.

Customer feedback and guarantees

At the time of writing, the website displayed a customer rating of 4.68 out of 5 based on 19 verified reviews. The company offers warranties of up to 10 years on selected models, and mentions that aluminium pergolas can last 15 to 25 years or more. PergoLIFE also notes that most aluminium pergolas do not require planning permission in the UK if they are under 2.5m high, not permanently enclosed, and not installed at the front of a property, though rules can vary for listed buildings or conservation areas.
