SkyMax louvered pergola: the roof turns, the sky opens.
The SkyMax louvered pergola turns its motorized aluminum panels and, when you want, retracts them. So you get a closed roof in the rain, adjustable shade at noon and open sky in fine weather, all from one system built in our own factory since 1989.

- Hidden drainage and wiring

Quick answer
What is the SkyMax louvered pergola and who is it for?
SkyMax is a louvered pergola whose aluminum panels both change their angle and retract. When the panels close, they form a roof that protects from rain. Once opened, they give shade and airflow, and when they retract, the sky opens. We designed it for hotel, restaurant and café patios and also for large residential terraces.
01How it works
Three positions, one remote control.
The roof of the SkyMax louvered pergola consists of aluminum panels that move together. When you use the remote control, the panels stop at any point you choose. So they angle toward the sun, close when rain begins and, in fine weather, retract to leave most of the roof open to the sky.
When the panels close, rainwater collects in channels along the panel edges and drains through the posts. Drainage and power lines also stay inside the profiles, which means no visible pipes or cables on your patio.
Closed
A roof that protects from rain and midday sun.
Angled
Shade and airflow set to the sun.
Retracted
Panels back, sky above you.
02Features
What a patio needs, inside the frame.
Rotating and retracting panels
The panels change their angle and also slide back. So the same roof closes in the rain, shades you at noon and opens up in the evening.
Motor and remote control
A motor drives the movement, while you operate it by remote control. With optional sensors, the roof can also close by itself when the weather changes.
Hidden drainage
Rainwater runs from the panel channels into the posts and drains from there. The drainage line and the wiring also stay inside the profiles.
Side enclosure
Add i-Zip Screen zip screens or glass panels between the posts. This way your patio stays usable on windy days and in winter.
Light and heat
LED lighting and heater options extend the evening. For this, we also plan the wiring with the project from the start.
Finish and color
The aluminum profiles have an electrostatic powder coating. You then choose RAL colors or wood-grain finishes to suit the architecture of your building.

06FAQ
What people ask about SkyMax.
Does the SkyMax louvered pergola leak?
When the panels close, the SkyMax louvered pergola forms a roof that protects from rain. Water collects in channels along the panel edges and drains through the posts. With the correct pitch, correct installation and regular maintenance, your patio stays dry in the rain. We also review the ground and the drain point for your project and set the outlet accordingly.
What is the difference between SkyMax and SkyPro?
On both series the aluminum panels move and retract. SkyMax, however, targets commercial projects such as hotels, restaurants and large patios, while SkyPro is a balanced choice for home and business patios. We decide together which one suits you, based on size, use and the need for side enclosure.
Can you use SkyMax in winter?
Yes. Closed panels protect your patio from rain and snow, and zip screens or glass panels between the posts also keep the wind out. Heater and LED lighting options also extend evenings and winter use. Our technical team calculates size and structural details for each project according to snow and wind conditions.
How much does a SkyMax pergola cost?
Size, color and finish, extras such as side enclosure, lighting and heating, and the installation site determine the price. If you enter your patio size in the form at the end of this page, our team replies with an estimate within one business day. The firm quote follows in writing once your drawings or a site survey show the ground and fixing points.
Do I need a permit for a pergola?
Permit rules depend on your city, county and HOA, and on whether the system attaches to the building. This is general information and not legal advice, so please check with your local building department and HOA before you order. Our team prepares the drawings and technical information that the permit process may require.
Who handles installation and service?
In Türkiye our own team installs and commissions the system. Elsewhere, authorized dealers or your project's installation crew take on the installation, while we provide the installation manual, drawings and remote technical support. After-sales service and warranty registration run through one contact, so you never have to search for the right person.
