The Venus LED Freestanding Aluminium Pergola shares the same design DNA as the Venus, but with significant upgrades that make it a best-in-class option for outdoor living.There is no handle to manually operate the roof — instead, this pergola comes with a remote control that opens and closes the louvred roof with ease. You can also download the mobile app for full wireless control, so you can prep your pergola before you even step outside.Unlike many motorised pergolas on the market, which feature large, clunky, and noisy electric motors, the motor on this pergola is discreetly tucked away and operates quietly.The tilting double-layer louvres allow you to switch between a closed, sheltered space and an open top, letting sunlight flood in whenever you choose. Adjust them to follow the sun from sunrise to sunset, or close them in an instant should the weather turn — providing reliable shelter from both sun and rain.Built-in colour-changing LEDs allow you to choose from 7 solid colour options, including cool white, purple, sky blue, yellow, green, and red, as well as 8 pre-configured colourways. Brightness is fully adjustable to suit everything from cosy evenings to garden parties. The LED strip sits neatly above the guttering, casting light beautifully across the underside of the roof, and is controlled via the remote or app.Constructed from aluminium with TIGER Drylac powder coating, the framework offers a high level of UV resistance and corrosion protection while requiring virtually no maintenance. When closed, the roof also provides UV protection for those using the space below.A cleverly engineered built-in drainage system channels rainwater from the louvres into U-shaped channels, through the framework, and down through the hollow legs to the ground — completely out of sight. Even when the louvres are open after rainfall, the U-shaped channels prevent drips from reaching the sheltered area beneath.While this pergola offers excellent shelter in wet conditions, we recommend keeping the gutters clear of debris to maintain performance, particularly during heavy downpours.Assembly requires 2–3 people and takes approximately 2 hours. The pergola should be installed on a solid, hard surface such as concrete, ideally with a gradual decline to assist drainage. Legs should be securely bolted to the ground using the supplied expansion bolts. Planning permission is not typically required, though we recommend checking with your local planning office if you are unsure.This pergola has received the prestigious Red Dot Design Award, a globally recognised accolade celebrating intive product design.Mains electricity is required to operate both the louvres and LED lighting. A 5m lead cable is included and should be connected to an indoor or suitably covered outdoor socket. Please note that fitting optional side wall accessories, sold separately, will require drilling into the pergola top and legs.
