Enhancing Outdoor Spaces with Louvered Roofs

    There are a lot of options for patio and deck coverings when you need shade or protection from wind, rain, or snow.  But only one solution can also allow sunlight in on command, the aluminum louvered roof (the reason this popular outdoor solution is trending). These adjustable louvered pergola systems offer that unique flexibility, and Forever Pergola is leading the way with their robust design.   A design that stemmed from years of lessons learned from other systems. Now, with a full generation passed for louvered pergolas being on the market, there is only one that seems poised to outlast them all, the Forever Pergola.

    For those exploring alternatives to brands such as StruXure, Equinox, or other outdated louvered roof options that seem overpriced and under-designed, Forever Pergola provides a compelling, USA-made choice that has implemented solutions to the problems these old systems continue to face and refuse to address.    The Forever Pergola is completely customizable in any commercial or residential construction project.  And with just one look of a side-by-side comparison to the sheer thickness of the Forever Pergola extrusions vs these others, you can tell only ONE was designed to last Forever.

    Founded by Matthew Barron-Ratz, a licensed builder and award-winning architectural landscape designer with more than 20 years in the field, Forever Pergola is being manufactured in Matthew’s hometown of in Jackson, Michigan. His goal was to create the best louvered roof product on the market, and it had to be Michigan Made.

    The first step was material: Sourcing the highest grade extruded aluminum and marine-grade powder coating available from the USA was the crucial in designing a “Forever” pergola. These systems can endure winds up to 160+ mph and significant Northern Michigan snow loads while backed by a 50-year warranty. This is because the 6105 grade aluminum is stronger and more durable by almost every metric when compared to the typical 6063 or 6061 grade alloys other systems.

    Other design features include hidden fasteners for a more finished look. Insulated dual-wall louvers with built in drip edges to minimize condensation, unwanted drips, and maximize comfort. The built-in oversized gutters and solid gutter corners were designed for more reliable water management. Other components key to the longevity of the system include the pivoting system that uses self-lubricating rotation points, with no plastic or rubber parts that decay over time. All these design features contribute to long-term property value with a system that will look just as good 50 years from the day it was installed. And it can be customized to fit any style home or restaurant.
