What a Motorized Louvered Pergola Is and How It Works

A motorized louvered pergola — also called a retractable or adjustable roof — is an aluminum patio cover with rotating slats that tilt to control sunlight and seal shut to keep rain out. The slats adjust on demand, so you can have full sun, full shade or anything in between. AB Aluminum & Screens designs and installs these systems across Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach.
