Freestanding pergolas for shade, style, and relaxation

Freestanding pergola for pleasant shade and shelter

The word pergola is from Italian, meaning something like ‘projection’. A pergola was initially made of wooden beams projecting from a house wall and supported by wooden posts at the end, away from the wall. A freestanding pergola is detached from the house and can be placed anywhere. You can use the freestanding pergola as a patio cover. Just place the pergola close to the house. Then, you do not have to attach anything to the house, so you do not make any marks on the façade.

A freestanding pergola with a flexible roof

We offer a wide range of garden gazebos and many elegant freestanding pergolas. The pergolas are characterized by a flat, flexible roof and four corner poles; some larger pergolas have six poles or legs. A freestanding pergola is an elegant and minimalistic construction that provides pleasant shade when the roof is closed. You can open the roof of the freestanding pergola by drawing the fabric aside or by turning the slats, depending on the type of pergola you have chosen. You can have freestanding pergolas in one colour or in black and white where the roof is white. The white colour provides a sense of space and reflects the sunlight elegantly.  

Modern and freestanding pergolas in sturdy materials

Our extended range of bioclimatic pergola gazebos includes some excellent freestanding pergolas. The classic and minimalistic pergolas will look amazing almost anywhere. Our freestanding pergolas’ light and sturdy construction is characterized by a flat roof made of crossbeams, slats, or sturdy fabric. Many of our more traditional garden gazebos have sidewalls or large windows, whereas the pergolas are open without sidewalls or curtains. Visually, this makes the freestanding pergolas a much lighter construction, which will take up very little of the view. All our elegant pergolas will create a magnificent spot for you to enjoy your garden even more – alone or with friends and family.

Relax and enjoy the pergola in maintenance-free materials 

You can say many great things about our freestanding pergolas, but another solution is our sturdy and durable patio covers. They are more like the classic pergolas from Italy, where the traditional pergolas derive from and are attached to the house. Our popular San Pablo pergolas can be freestanding or attached as you prefer. Order the special wall brackets and remove a couple of posts, and then you have a flexible patio cover where you can open and close the roof according to the weather. With an elegant patio cover – or a freestanding pergola right next to the house – you can enjoy the pleasant shade and have garden furniture more shaded from the sun and sheltered against a light summer rain.
