Built For Every British Season
A pergola that only earns its keep in July isn't doing its job. Every OutdoorHavens frame is engineered to genuine wind and snow load ratings, confirmed by our manufacturer — here's what that means for how you'll actually use it, month to month.
How It Performs, Season By Season
This is where the wind and snow ratings actually matter. Every frame is tested to withstand sustained gales — Essential up to 180 km/h, Signature and Prestige up to 220 km/h — and carries confirmed snow load capacity, so it's built to stay put through the worst a UK winter throws at it, not just look good in the brochure photos.
A frame that's been engineered to a genuine structural rating doesn't need "reopening" for the season — there's nothing to repair or reinforce after winter. The same motorised louvres that sealed the space in January simply open back up.
The season it's easiest to picture — full shade control, open-air entertaining, zip screens for glare and privacy. The structural engineering that gets the least attention in summer is the same engineering doing the work all year round.
Frame Specifications
The natural starting point for a first pergola — compact, precise, and built to the same aluminium standard as the rest of the range.
A reinforced frame built for wider open spaces — heavier beam and post profiles allow a larger unsupported span without compromising on line or finish.
The only frame in the range with a fully sealed retractable roof, closing to form a continuous waterproof membrane — ideal if you want the option of a fully enclosed, all-season room rather than an open-air louvred canopy.
Wind resistance and snow load figures are manufacturer-tested ratings, confirmed directly with our supplier. Actual performance in extreme or unusual local conditions may vary — please contact us if you have specific site considerations.
Backed By a 10 Year Frame Warranty
These aren't marketing numbers — they're the engineering standard every frame is built and tested against, backed by a 10 year frame warranty and 2 year motor warranty on every Custom Collection pergola.
