Protection from the sun – Our smart louvered pergolas feature pivoting louver blades that rotate to protect you from the hot Texas sun .

The Struxure™, Our Most Popular Smart Louvered Roof
The Struxure™ (formerly known as Arcadia) motorized adjustable smart pergola is custom-crafted for Texans who enjoy outdoor living. The Struxure™ allows comfortable outdoor living, rain or shine, with interlocking louver blades that create rain channels, directing water to the integrated gutter system. Also known as an operable pergola, a louvered pergola, or an opening roof, the Arcadia allows sunlight when you want it and protection from the elements when you need it.
Simply press a button on the Struxure™ remote control or use the integrated smartphone app to control the louvers. When activated, the louvers open to allow you to enjoy the morning sun, and rotate to create shade when the Texas heat intensifies. When closed, the louvers prevent rain from entering your living space by guiding water into the integrated gutter system.
The Struxure™ can turn an intolerable day into a very comfortable one. Feel 30 degrees cooler on hot Austin days, as the angle of the louvers adjusts to create shade while ceiling fans circulate a cooling breeze. Leaving the roof closed during the heat of the day protects patio furniture and keeps the underlying patio floor cool.
Shade-Outdoor Living Solutions will construct your Arcadia operable pergola in any shape and size, matching your home’s architecture. And installation generally takes three days or fewer!
