More Covers, More Revenue From the Outdoor Space You Already Have
Outdoor seating can be some of the most valuable square footage at a restaurant, brewery, taproom, or hospitality property, but Colorado weather can limit how often it is usable. StruXure of the Rockies designs and installs motorized louvered pergolas that give staff much more control when weather conditions change.
Louvers can tilt to reduce sun and glare, open to let in the breeze, or close when rain moves in. With heating, screens, lighting, and other integrations, the same patio can stay useful during a much wider range of conditions. For restaurants and beverage venues, that means a better chance of keeping tables in service and getting more value from the outdoor space already built into the property.
Built for the Colorado Conditions That Close Other Patios
Commercial outdoor structures in Colorado have to contend with the full spectrum of weather. Hail, heavy snow, high winds, intense UV exposure, and large temperature swings all factor into how a permanent patio structure should be built.
Aircraft-Grade Aluminum: Strong extruded aluminum construction stands up to demanding outdoor conditions without rusting or corroding.
Custom Full-Length Extrusions: Continuous structural components add strength across the pergola system.
Premium Powder-Coated Finish: Helps protect the aluminum from intense sun, UV exposure, and changing weather.
Built for Heavy Snow: StruXure systems are engineered to support demanding snow loads.
Engineered for High Winds: Systems are rated to Category 4 hurricane conditions up to 156 mph.
ICC-Certified Construction: StruXure is the only ICC-certified pergola system in the United States, providing added structural documentation for commercial projects.
The systems are manufactured in the United States and built with modular construction, so the footprint can be expanded later as the property or outdoor service area changes.
Pergola Configuration Options for Restaurants, Breweries, and Hospitality Spaces
Different properties need different types of coverage. A full restaurant patio may require wide spans and multiple independently controlled zones, while a brewery may want separate areas for dining, lounge seating, events, or an outdoor bar. StruXure systems can be configured around these uses and more.
The Pivot 6 uses adjustable louvers that rotate to control sunlight, shade, airflow, and rain protection. For properties that want sections that open even farther to the sky, the Pivot 6 Slide combines traditional pivoting panels with sliding louver zones.
The Cabana works well for more defined gathering areas, private dining spaces, lounge zones, or poolside hospitality environments. Where permanent overhead coverage makes more sense, Pan 6 fixed canopy panels can be incorporated alongside adjustable sections.
Flexible Installation, Controls, and Future Expansion
Systems can be attached to a building, mounted to an existing roof, or installed freestanding depending on the site. Motorized Somfy controls allow staff to operate the pergola and integrated accessories via remote or app, and manual operation is also available for locations with limited power access.
Our modular approach can be particularly useful for growing restaurants, breweries, and hospitality properties. An outdoor space can begin with the coverage needed today, then expand and enhance as operating needs change.

Our pergola screens provide more than just shade. Each system adds comfort, privacy, and weather protection, fully integrated with your outdoor structure. From quiet mornings on the patio to evenings hosting friends, you control your environment with a touch.
Thoughtfully integrated pergola heater can transform your StruXure system or patio cover into a welcoming retreat, no matter the temperature. Heating solutions are engineered from the start, not as an afterthought, so every gathering stays comfortable from cool summer nights to the heart of winter.
Pergola fans actively circulate air, reduce heat, and create a more inviting environment under your pergola. Whether you’re hosting friends or seeking a quiet place to unwind, incorporating a fan system expands the use of your outdoor space.
Experience the ultimate in outdoor living with pergola speakers designed for StruXure’s advanced pergola systems. Seamlessly integrated audio brings every gathering or quiet evening to life, transforming your patio into a true backyard destination.
Built directly into the structure with TRAX technology, downlights provide clear, functional illumination, while optional track lighting highlights the pergola's design lines or sets a soft, ambient glow. Choose warm or cool tones to match the moment. From lively gatherings to quiet evenings, control it all from your phone with the StruXure app for iOS and Android. Because the lighting is built in rather than added on, it feels like a natural extension of the structure itself, not an accessory.
A Commercial Process Built Around Coordination
Restaurant and hospitality projects involve multiple stakeholders and must account for permitting, existing structures, utilities, customer flow, and ongoing operations. StruXure of the Rockies manages this using a structured process:
Discovery and Project Scoping
We discuss the property, intended use, timeline, priorities, site conditions, and project parameters.
On-Site Design Consultation
Our team visits the property, evaluates the space, takes initial measurements, and reviews configuration and accessory options.
Design and Engineering
Detailed measurements, structural engineering, CAD drawings, and photorealistic renderings are developed as needed for the project.
Production and Pre-Fabrication
Components undergo quality checks and pre-fabrication before installation, reducing the amount of work required on-site.
Installation
Our in-house installers complete the system rather than passing the project to subcontractors. On-site installation is typically completed in one to two days, depending on the project scope.
System Training
Once the pergola is installed, we show your team how to operate the louvers, controls, and other integrated features.
Ongoing Service
If the property later needs screens, heating, additional coverage, or another integrated feature, we can continue building on the original system.
