The Pergola® 1000 model is a motorized awning system meant for larger areas such as restaurants and cafés, or large residential decks or patios. The maximum width per awning section is 16 ft. The maximum projection per awning section is 20 ft. Larger areas can be covered by coupling units together and mounting the sections back to back (see above). A guttering system avoids water leaking between the systems.
The Pergola® 1000 comes motorized with a tubular motor from SOMFY. With the flick of a button the Pergola® will extend and retract automatically.
Pergola® offers the convenience of a retractable awning, yet the comfort and durability of a stationary awning. Now you can utilize your patio area during fierce mid day sun and inclement weather. The Pergola® is great for Large Restaurant and residential patio areas. Larger areas can be covered by coupling units together.

The Pergola® 1000 terrace awning is designed for restaurants, cafes, and large residential terraces. The PERGOLA® 1000 system is permanent sun-shading system with a retractable fabric. The Pergola® opens and closes by means of a tubular motor. A spring/cable system built into the profiles ensures that the fabric is always sufficiently taut, both when moving as well as stationary. With sufficient angle or slope on the fabric (15 degrees or 3/12 pitch), the awning can also be used as protection against moderate rainfall. Multiple units can be added together for wider widths.
Acrylic fabric such as Para, Sunbrella, and Dickson is available. The fabric resists mold and rotting, with water-resistant and dirt repelling qualities. It is available in a variety of colors (solids and stripes). Sunbrella Firesist & Sunbrella Plus is also available as an upgrade. Vinyl fabric such as Weblon Coastline plus is available. This vinyl laminated fabric Offers water resistance and is certified for flame resistance. The fabric is available in solids and stripes, and seams are heat sealed rather than sewn.
The side guide extrusions are manufactured from thick-walled powder coated extruded aluminum. The awning can therefore be manufactured with projections of up to 6 meters or 20 ft.
The fabric is concealed in an aluminum box. The measurements of the box are 225 x 285mm. The box is closed all around and provides complete protection for the fabric. Attachment to the wall is provided by two brackets at each end of the box cassette. The brackets are hinged, and the box can be installed at any angle as required. The maximal width of each section or box is 16 ft.
To extend the fabric, the system uses a rustproof 2.5mm cable with sufficient pulling power. The cable has no points of friction whatsoever and runs over nylon wheels. The heavy duty spring provides permanent tautness for the fabric. The spring is concealed within the front bar. With large fabric surface areas, two springs can be used to ensure the tautness of the fabric.
The Pergola® 1000 is operated by a 110v tubular electric motor. Somfy motors and controls are used. A 660 or 680R2 Standard or RTS Somfy motor is used as needed. CMO motor is not available.
To avoid water leakage between sections, a supplementary guttering profile can be added on the underside of the side guide profiles (See sketch below). The central guttering has a width of 320mm and protruding edges of 20mm.
