Pergola Ideas for Hospitality

There’s nothing quite like the British outdoors. Your customers, armed with a pint and sunglasses, love to make the most of the sun when it comes. However, even the keenest sun lovers need a little shade sometimes, and that’s where a retractable pergola steps in. It is the ideal solution to transform your hospitality venue’s outside spaces into an inviting, modern area that customers will not want to leave. In this article, our team from Commercial Awnings will discuss why pergolas are a wise investment for your businesses.

Is a Pergola Good for Shade? 

Certainly! Pergolas are built to provide much needed shade to your outdoor areas while enhancing the overall experience. They provide protection from sun light, sometime harsh rays during the summer months while allowing day light to come through for a welcoming atmosphere. At Commercial Awnings, we recommended two types of pergolas for outdoor restaurants or pubs: retractable pergolas and louvered roof system pergolas which are both made to measure for any businesses. These types of products have attractive open slats or retractable louvered roofs, allowing you to adjust the amount of shade throughout the day, giving shelter from bright sunshine and even a bit of protection from inevitable spring showers or a sudden summer downpour.

Stylish and Practical Pergola Shade Ideas for Hospitality

1.Control Sunlight and Ventilation with Louvered Pergolas

Louvered pergolas are a fantastic choice for businesses that are looking for a modern aesthetic. They are sleek and contemporary, providing constant shade and offering a sheltered protected outdoor area. The moveable slats allow you to optimise natural light and create an atmosphere to your customer’s needs, ensuring the ideal combination of sun, shade and ventilation.

Want to refreshing breeze? Just open the louvers. Need a little extra shade? Close them with a single button. It is that easy!

 

A bioclimatic pergola consists of horizontal louvers or blades that can be adjusted to optimise usage at all hours of the day, whether the sun is blazing, or it is a colder autumn evening you can be sure to get maximum usage out of your bioclimatic pergola. Depending on the model, these blades may tilt up or down to provide shade when needed or let in light when desired. Some models also come equipped with motorised systems that make it easy to control the angle of the blades for maximum efficiency.

2.Enjoy the Best of Both Worlds with Retractable Roof Pergolas

Why pick between sunlight and shade when you can have both? Pergolas with retractable roofs allow your business to adapt to the unpredictable British weather and your customer’s preferences. To create a warm, airy atmosphere and let in the sunlight, just slide the roof open. When it begins to rain, simply close it with a button to provide temporary shade and shelter.

The Markilux Markant is an excellent example of a fashionable, adaptable option that will keep your outside spaces appealing to guests all year. You also may extend your outdoor dining area in the winter and create a year-round retreat by adding LED lights and infrared heating.

If you are a business owner, investing in a pergola for outdoor restaurants, pubs or hotels is more than offering shade, it is about designing a visually appealing and useful outdoor area to please customers and increase revenue. In terms of comfort, style and customer satisfaction, a well designed pergola is a smart investment that pays for itself.
