Louvered Pergolas

Louvered pergola sizes for decks and patios

A louvered pergola on this page comes in 10x10 ft and 10x12 ft sizes. Widths run 117 to 141.7 inches, depths run 117 to 120 inches and heights run 87.8 to 94.8 inches.

Measure the space you want to cover and leave room around the posts for chairs and walkways.

A 10x10 ft pergola shades a bistro set or a small lounge group, while a 10x12 ft pergola gives more room for a dining table and chairs.

Aluminum louvered pergola frames and finishes

An aluminum louvered pergola is the most common choice here, and every pergola on the page has a metal frame. Most are aluminum and some are iron, in white, brown, gray and black.

Aluminum resists rust, which makes it a practical frame for a structure that stays outside all year.

Pick a color that matches your house trim or deck railing. White and gray look light and modern, while brown and black blend with wood decks and darker siding.

Louvered pergola roof and sun control

A louvered pergola roof is made of angled slats that filter sun and give you shade on a deck or patio. Every pergola here is louvered, and the slats let air move through the space instead of trapping heat.

A louvered roof is not a sealed roof, so treat it as sun control and light rain cover rather than full protection from weather.

Pergola with louvered roof care and setup

A pergola with a louvered roof needs a flat, level spot and a clear footprint, so check the listed dimensions against your deck or patio. Wipe the frame and slats with mild soap and water a few times a year, and rinse off pollen and dust.

Keep furniture and cushions under the pergola covered or stored in heavy weather. Hang outdoor lights or add shade curtains if you want more privacy, and check that the posts and bolts are tight each season.
