Outdoor · Fabric roof
Pergola awnings. Fabric shade with a supporting structure.
When a conventional awning feels too lightweight and a fixed roof too imposing, a pergola awning combines generous shade with clean architectural lines.
What defines this solution
More stability. More coverage. More evenings outdoors.
Guided fabric roofs create large, uniform areas of shade. Posts and guide rails increase stability and allow designs that project much further than a conventional folding-arm awning.

The benefits for you
More than a product. A difference in everyday life.
Guided fabric
Guide rails and posts ensure controlled movement and a smooth fabric appearance.
Large areas
The structure is suitable for large projections and extensive shading.
Weather protection
Depending on the system, rainwater drainage and weatherproof fabrics can also form part of the design.
Features
Lighting, side shading and automation extend use into the evening.
The right direction
Not all pergola awnings are the same.
The guided fabric roof, folding mechanism, rainwater management and side modules determine whether the focus is on sun protection, weather protection or maximum openness.
Lightweight & fabric-based
A guided fabric solution keeps the architecture open and provides extensive sun protection without taking on the character of a fixed roof.
A selection tailored to your project and installation requirementsSun and weather protection
When rainwater management and extended use matter as well as shade, the fabric, roof pitch, drainage and side modules are planned together.

Front and side shading, glazing and lighting can be added step by step to turn the pergola solution into a much more sheltered outdoor space.

Systems for different requirements.
When planning, we first consider how the space will be used, the architecture, exposure to the weather and the scope for future additions. These factors determine the manufacturer and the specific system – not the other way round.

PLANIGRAPH expertise
Compare systems. Plan the right solution.
A pergola awning is not just a single component, but a small outdoor room. That is why we plan the fabric, posts, drainage, lighting and side protection as a whole.
The system names help you find your way around the range and, later, the manufacturer's catalogue. The technically suitable configuration depends on the installation conditions, intended use, size, wind exposure and desired features.
Design & comfort
The fabric roof, rainwater management, side protection and lighting need to be considered as a single system.
Fabric guidance
Side guides and support posts allow greater projections than conventional folding-arm awnings.
Weather
Depending on the system and fabric specification, the design can provide anything from light weather protection to a defined level of weather protection, in addition to sun protection.
Drainage
The slope and integrated water drainage are key planning details for solutions designed to provide weather protection.
Add-ons
Screens, glass, lighting and radio control turn a shading solution into a modular outdoor space.
More perspectives
Materials, architecture and use change the overall effect.
Different installation settings show how the solution works with a terrace, garden or glazed area, and which details matter when planning and designing it.
Planning
So the solution works just as it should once installed.
For outdoor products, architecture, weather, fixings and operation all need to be considered equally. We clarify these points before providing a quotation.

The questions that really matter before you decide.
Is a pergola awning rainproof?
That depends on the system, fabric, slope and installation details. We make a clear distinction between sun protection alone and a defined level of weather protection.
Can I add side panels later?
With modular systems, this is often possible. It is worth allowing for future screens or glazing at the initial planning stage.
When is a louvred roof a better choice?
When the priority is a more architectural roof solution with adjustable opening and greater weather protection.
