Covering 12 square metres, this beautifully proportioned pergola creates a substantial outdoor room perfect for larger patios, entertaining areas, and family gardens where space and versatility matter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat sets this pergola apart is its innovative dual-control louvred roof system. For use, simply hook your handle into the eye on the side you wish to open or close, giving you independent control over each half of the roof. This clever design means you can create two distinct zones within your outdoor space - close one side to provide cool, shaded shelter for your dining table whilst leaving the other open for a sunny lounging area. As the sun moves throughout the day, adjust each side independently to maintain perfect comfort wherever you're sitting.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eConstructed entirely from premium-grade aluminium with a durable powder-coated finish, this pergola is engineered to withstand wind, rain, and UV exposure year-round. Unlike timber structures that demand annual treatment, staining, and constant upkeep, this aluminium framework remains virtually maintenance-free. The powder coating resists fading, cracking, and peeling, whilst the robust construction stands strong against the elements. An occasional rinse with a garden hose is all that's needed to keep it looking pristine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThoughtful engineering ensures rainfall is managed beautifully. The integrated drainage system channels water efficiently through the structure, directing it safely away to protect the area underneath the frame. Even during sustained downpours, the comprehensive drainage keeps your outdoor living space comfortable and usable. With no visible guttering or unsightly downpipes, you get clean, contemporary lines that enhance your garden's aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe single-layer louvred roof delivers excellent shade control whilst maintaining a sleek, streamlined profile. When closed, the louvres form a weatherproof canopy that shields you from rain and intense sun; when open, they invite natural light and fresh air to flow freely through your space. This flexibility means your pergola works beautifully across all seasons - offering protection when the weather turns and openness when conditions are perfect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation requires a firm, level base such as concrete paving or a patio. Each corner leg features a pre-drilled base plate for secure bolting to your surface. For optimal drainage performance, ensure your patio has a slight gradient to allow water runoff. Most patios are already constructed with this slope. We recommend keeping the drainage channels clear of leaves and debris to maintain peak performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePergolas of this type typically don't require planning permission, though regulations vary by location. If you have any concerns, check with your Local Planning Office before installation.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chimes Home and Garden","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56738261074264,"sku":"C80002","price":1499.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0951\/9706\/9656\/files\/C80002-00_45e3db41-b7d1-4972-baf1-dbb22cabb470.webp?v=1771339423","url":"https:\/\/www.chimeshomeandgarden.co.uk\/products\/chimes-torino-4m-x-3m-aluminium-pergola","provider":"Chimes Home and Garden","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
