Aluminium pergolas and carports

The aluminium pergolas available at HAGRO are a durable, long-lasting solution for terraces, covering relaxation areas or parking spaces. They are a building element that combines traditional design with the properties of modern structures, which makes them attractive and gives them a wide range of uses.
There is particular interest in modern bioclimatic pergolas for terraces with tilting louvres for perfect microclimate control, as well as in practical carport pergolas, which serve as an elegant alternative to a conventional or container garage. The choice of a particular type of shelter therefore always depends on the purpose the covered space is to serve.

Although several types of pergola are available on the market, aluminium versions have become the absolute favourite thanks to the advantages of the material. It is durable, corrosion-resistant and practically maintenance-free, which makes it a convenient year-round protection against the elements.

Why choose aluminium pergolas?

A longer terrace season

By installing an aluminium shelter you can use your outdoor space regardless of sun, rain, snow or wind.

Greater aesthetics and property value

A quality aluminium pergola on a terrace impresses as a dominant architectural feature and can significantly improve the overall impression of the exterior.

More space for outdoor living

An aluminium pergola turns a terrace, front garden or part of the garden into a space resembling an open-air room, suitable for relaxing, working or entertaining guests.

Aluminium pergolas are a timeless, attractive and highly functional roofing solution for any family house or garden. The combination of a durable aluminium structure, a well-designed drainage system and optional accessories creates an outdoor element with a service life of many years.

Whether you are looking for shade on the terrace for family gatherings or need an aluminium carport to protect your vehicle, your investment in an aluminium pergola will pay off in the form of carefree use without any demanding maintenance.
What are aluminium pergolas?
An aluminium pergola is a free-standing structure or one attached to the wall of the house, whose load-bearing elements, posts, beams and roof profiles are made of aluminium alloy, or of other materials depending on the specific design.
Originally they served mainly as support for climbing plants, but today they are above all a functional architectural element. They provide shade, protect against bad weather and create a pleasant transition between indoors and outdoors.
Our range includes all-aluminium pergolas and terrace roofs with steel louvres. You can choose from versions with or without LED lighting.
Advantages of using an aluminium pergola

Weather protection: Protects against direct sun, rain, snow and wind, so you can use your outdoor space even in less favourable weather.
Maintenance-free: The aluminium structure does not rot or rust, is not corroded by the weather and requires no painting or impregnation.
Long service life: Well-finished aluminium withstands UV radiation, frost and moisture for decades.
Higher property value: A modern terrace roof over interlocking paving is a genuine investment in the exterior of your home.
Versatile solutions: An aluminium pergola can be adapted to the dimensions of the space, the colour of the facade and the specific purpose.
More usable space: Thanks to the roof, the terrace or garden becomes a place that can be used all year round.

How is an aluminium pergola installed?
Installing an aluminium pergola consists of careful preparation of the base, anchoring of the structure and installation of the other elements of this popular type of roof. It is best to leave the work to our experienced fitters, who have many completed projects behind them.
The basis of a safe structure is a firm, level and stable base. This is most often a concrete slab, concrete footings under paving, or quality crushed stone with a base grid. The base plates are then fixed to the ground with anchors. The aluminium posts are then erected and the beams fitted.
A gutter system is an integral part of every pergola, so its installation comes next. The louvres, aluminium or steel, are then fitted to the load-bearing frame. If the version requires it, the electrical installation for lighting or electric louvre control is dealt with last.
5 ways to use an aluminium pergola

Terrace pergola at a family house: The most common use, connecting indoors with outdoors and creating a shaded space for seating or dining. An aluminium pergola can also easily be attached to a residential container.
Relaxation zone in the garden: A free-standing pergola can create a pleasant place to relax even in the middle of the garden, away from the house.
Solution for restaurants and cafés: Restaurants, cafés and hotels use aluminium pergolas to extend their summer terraces and lengthen the season for guests.
Additional functional space: A bioclimatic pergola with rotating louvres lets you regulate light, heat and ventilation, so it works as a space that can be used in almost any weather.
Modern alternative to a garage: An aluminium carport works like a conventional or tent garage and protects the vehicle from sun, rain, snow and hail.

How to choose an aluminium carport or pergola?
Choosing the right pergola or terrace roof should reflect your specific requirements for space, level of comfort and budget. Before buying, it is important to consider several key criteria that define the ideal model for your house or garden.

Required features: Decide whether the pergola is to serve for family relaxation on the terrace, shading a pool or protecting a vehicle.
Adjustable louvres: If you are looking for maximum comfort when using your terrace, a bioclimatic pergola is the right choice. Rotating louvres allow you to smoothly regulate airflow and the amount of sunlight. Motorised control together with integrated LED lighting is a great addition to any garden.
Carport pergola: Effective protection of vehicles against hail and UV radiation. They take up minimal space and stand out for their quick installation.
Snow load according to local conditions: For mountain areas and places with more demanding weather conditions, choose all-aluminium models with a high snow load capacity of up to 100 kg/m².

Price of an aluminium pergola: what does it depend on and what is the price list?
The price of an aluminium pergola depends on several factors. The calculation is based on the specifics of the particular order, but the chosen type of pergola also comes into the equation. While aluminium carports with fixed louvres tend to be more affordable, bioclimatic versions represent a higher initial investment.
