Quick answer
What is the Toscana manual retractable pergola, and who is it for?
Toscana is a pergola awning whose PVC fabric roof you open and close by hand. The frame combines aluminum and stainless steel, while the fabric is waterproof, flame-retardant and durable. Its wave-pleated look recalls a classic awning. That is why it suits homeowners and cafés who want easy shade over a backyard, a patio or a deck by the water.
01How it works
Open it by hand, close it by hand.
On the Toscana manual retractable pergola, the fabric roof rests on a frame of aluminum profiles with stainless steel fittings. You open and close the fabric by hand, so at midday you close the roof and relax in the shade. Then, when the evening cools down, you gather the fabric back and enjoy an open sky.
The roof fabric is PVC-based, waterproof, flame-retardant and durable. In addition, its wave-pleated look gives Toscana the charm of a classic awning. This way it looks at home in a modern backyard as well as at a café by the water.
Installation is also straightforward. If you like, you pick the fabric color from options such as cream, gray or beige to match your patio and outdoor furniture.

06FAQ
Questions about Toscana.
Does the Toscana manual retractable pergola keep the rain out?
Toscana's PVC fabric is waterproof. Therefore, with the fabric roof closed, it shelters the seating area underneath from rain. However, where the water runs off depends on the ground and the installation site, so we review both before the final quote. In addition, our technical team confirms in writing the limits for use in wind and rain for your project.
Toscana or Elegant: what is the difference?
Both are fabric roof pergolas, but you operate them differently. You open and close Toscana by hand, and it offers a simple awning solution. Elegant, however, runs on a motor with remote control. It also mounts on a wall or stands free and offers LED options. We help you decide which one fits your patio and budget.
Can I use Toscana in winter?
Toscana is a pergola awning designed mainly for sun shade, but its waterproof fabric also gives cover in rain. However, our technical team confirms in writing the limits for use in snow and wind at your location. If you want a patio you can close up in winter, look at louvered pergolas with glass panel and heater options.
How much does a Toscana pergola awning cost?
The cost depends on the size, the fabric color and the installation site. Enter your patio size in the form at the end of this page, and our team replies within one business day. Estimates are not binding. A firm quote follows in writing after drawings or a dealer site visit, once the ground and fixing points are clear.
Do I need a permit for a pergola awning?
Rules depend on your city, your county and, where one exists, your HOA. They can also depend on whether the awning attaches to your house. This is general information, not legal advice, so check with your local building department and HOA before you order. We can prepare the drawings your application may need.
Who installs and services Toscana?
Outside Türkiye, an authorized dealer or your project's installation crew installs the system. They receive an installation manual, drawings and remote technical support from our team. After-sales service and warranty registration run through one contact, and we give the warranty terms in writing with your quote.
