3 x 3m Heavy Duty Aluminium Charcoal Louvred Pergola & 2 Textilene Side Panels

Hi, The FTR233A 3 x 3m Heavy Duty Aluminium Pergola is constructed with 100mm x 100mm (10cm square) aluminium posts. The main frame is made from powder-coated aluminium, with a reinforced structure designed for outdoor stability, and the adjustable louvred roof includes steel components for added strength.

Thank you.

Hi, Yes, this FTR233A 3x3m aluminium louvred pergola should work for you: it has an overall height of 250 cm, giving a usable clearance of roughly 235–245 cm under the frame depending on installation. Since you only need 220 cm clearance for doors and windows to open, it comfortably meets your requirement with a reasonable safety margin, assuming it’s installed on a level base without raising the floor height.

Thank you.

Hi Jasmine,The FTR233A 3m x 3m heavy-duty aluminium charcoal louvred pergola with two Textilene side panels comes with a 1-year warranty.Thanks!

Hi, This pergola features an adjustable aluminium louvred roof system. The roof consists of metal louvre slats that can be opened or closed using a crank handle, allowing you to control sunlight, ventilation, and rain protection. When closed, the louvres form a solid, water-resistant roof.

Thank you.

Hi, Based on the official manual , the FTR233A louvres are designed to tilt from a flat, closed position to a vertical, fully open position, which corresponds to a 90° angle. The technical assembly diagrams illustrate the slats moving to a standard upright orientation rather than an over-tilted position. To ensure the longevity of the unit and prevent the metal from bowing, we recommends keeping the louvres in this open position when not in use and ensuring the roof is kept clear of any large quantities of water or debris.

Thank you.

HI, The 3 × 3?m Heavy Duty Charcoal Aluminium Louvred Pergola (FTR233A) comes with two Textilene side panels. This means that only two sides are covered, and the other two sides remain open. It does not come with four sides enclosed, although additional side panels may be purchased separately if full enclosure is required.

Thank you.

Hi, Based on the manual, the pergola is not pre-drilled for fixing to a house wall because it is designed as a freestanding, non-permanent structure. While the footplates have pre-drilled holes for ground-anchoring expansion bolts , the main framework and side panels are secured using self-drilling screws (Parts A, J, and K) that create their own holes in the aluminium during assembly. The instructions explicitly warn against altering the product's design or structure, and any such modifications to fix it to a wall may void your warranty.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Hi,Yes, the side panels can be fitted on any side of the pergola, so you can choose where to place them—such as left, right, front, or back—depending on what direction you want protection or privacy from.Thank you!

Hi, The FTR233A pergola is a fixed-dimension structure measuring 300cm x 300cm , and the design or structure must not be altered in any way. The unit is pre-engineered with specific components, including 20 louvres and drive rods , that are sized exactly for a 3m span; any attempt to shorten the beams would prevent the mechanical roof from functioning and compromise the integrated drainage system. Furthermore, the Textilene side panels and guide rails are manufactured to fit these precise dimensions , and the frame must be perfectly square for them to fit correctly. Modifying the product would not only void the warranty but could also lead to property damage or serious injury , as the structural integrity relies entirely on the quality of the ground fixing at the specified width.

Thank you.

Hi Jo,Yes, you can install the 3?x?3?m heavy-duty aluminium pergola (FTR233A) on a composite deck, but it must be securely anchored into the deck’s structural joists or beams rather than just the surface boards, using appropriate fixings and protective pads, and the deck must be strong enough to safely support the pergola’s weight and wind load.Thanks!

Hi Ben,The pergola’s feet are designed to be secured using the base plates at the bottom of each vertical post. Each plate has holes through which you insert expansion bolts into a solid surface like concrete or a paved patio. To install, position the pergola, mark the holes, drill into the concrete, insert the anchors, and then bolt the base plates down. This ensures maximum stability, and if drilling isn’t possible, alternatives like heavy weights or ground stakes can be used, though bolting to a solid base is always recommended.Thanks!

Hi Yvonne,The pergola is a “charcoal” colour, which is a super dark grey that’s really close to black. In everyday outdoor light, it will mostly look black, though up close you might notice it’s technically a very deep grey.Thanks!
