outdoor canopies - a fabric roof alternative

Our Louvered Roof Pergolas feature sleek aluminium panels that tilt and rotate to provide precise control over sunlight, shade and airflow. But if you prefer a softer, fabric finish, our range of Outdoor Canopies could be the ideal choice.

Also known as garden canopies or retractable canopies, these systems use a durable fabric or canvas roof rather than louvered panels. The result is a stylish and practical shelter that offers protection from the sun and light rain, while maintaining an open, airy feel.

Outdoor Canopies are perfect for homeowners seeking a more traditional, awning-style canopy that blends seamlessly with the garden. They provide year-round comfort and flexibility, making them an excellent alternative to the modern, adjustable louvered roof pergolas.

Whether you choose the contemporary look of a louvered system or the classic appeal of a fabric canopy, SWR offers premium solutions from leading manufacturers including Markilux to help you make the most of your outdoor space.

LOUVERED ROOF PERGOLAS FAQS

What is a louvered roof pergola?

A louvered roof pergola is a modern outdoor structure with an aluminium roof system made up of adjustable louvres (slats). These louvres can be tilted or fully closed to provide shade, shelter, or ventilation, making it easy to enjoy your outdoor space in all weather conditions.

What are the benefits of a louvered roof pergola?

Louvered roof pergolas offer a stylish and functional way to extend your living space outdoors. Benefits include:

  • Adjustable shade and airflow at the touch of a button.

  • Protection from sun, rain, and wind.

  • A sleek, modern design that enhances your garden or patio.

  • Year-round use, thanks to integrated drainage and optional side screens or heating.

What materials are louvered roof pergolas made of?

Most louvered roof pergolas are constructed from high-quality aluminium for strength, durability, and low maintenance. Aluminium also offers a premium, modern finish and is resistant to rust and weather damage. Optional side panels or screens may include materials like glass or fabric to complement the structure.

How does a louvered roof pergola work?

The roof is made of movable aluminium louvres that can be adjusted manually or by remote control. Open the louvres to let in sunlight and fresh air, tilt them for shade, or close them completely for full protection from rain. Built-in drainage channels guide rainwater away, keeping the space underneath dry.

What types of louvered roofs are available?

Louvered roof pergolas can be designed as freestanding garden structures or attached to your home to create a seamless transition between indoors and outdoors. Options include fully motorised louvres, integrated LED lighting, sliding glass walls, and retractable side screens, allowing you to customise the pergola to your lifestyle.

What is the difference between a louvered roof pergola and an outdoor canopy?

A louvered roof pergola has an aluminium roof system made of adjustable louvres that tilt or close to control sunlight, shade, and shelter. This makes it a durable, all-weather solution that can be enjoyed year-round.

An outdoor canopy, on the other hand, typically uses a fabric or canvas roof that provides shade and light rain protection. While stylish, fabric canopies don’t offer the same level of weather resistance, durability, or flexibility as a louvered roof pergola. 

How do I maintain a louvered roof pergola?

Louvered roof pergolas are low maintenance. Simply clean the aluminium frame and louvres periodically with mild soapy water, remove any debris from the roof, and check the drainage system is clear. Unlike fabric canopies, they don’t require waterproofing treatments and are built to withstand the elements year-round.

Can louvered roofs be customised?

Yes — louvered roof pergolas can be tailored to suit your home and garden. You can choose the size, colour, and configuration, as well as optional upgrades such as glass sliding doors, retractable screens, built-in lighting, and heating. This makes it easy to create a truly bespoke outdoor living space.
