Electric vs Manual Louvered Pergola: Which one is better?


Building a bioclimatic pergola is a great way to protect you from the harsh rays, especially during this extremely hot summertime, but which type of louvered pergola is suited to your needs?

Both electric and manual louvered pergola have their distinct features and offer various benefits to you.

Therefore, it is important to have a glimpse of their different advantages before making a decision.


A big difference between an electric louvered pergola and a manual louvered pergola is that the former is powered by electricity, while the latter requires you to operate by yourself.

Thus, the first advantage of an electric louvered pergola is that it is fully automated and saves you much time when you have your hands full.

A push of a button can easily power your remote control pergola and adjust the angle of the louvers as much as you like


 Another advantage of a remote control pergola is that the wires of the light strips and the motor are hidden, making the louvered pergola more pleasing to the eyes and enhancing the sense of design.

The most important advantage of an electric louvered pergola is that with rain sensors, it can detect the rain and close the louver roof automatically so as to protect items under the roof from getting wet.


For an electric louvered pergola, we have the luxury electric pergola (E300) with the first 6-meter-long louver blade design in Asia.

It can be installed in restaurants, hotels, resorts, etc., allowing customers to enjoy themselves in rain or shine.

Not only is it aesthetic, but also it is functional, offering a perfectly comfortable outdoor leisure experience for customers.

Without a crank, it is safer and more friendly to children and the old.

We also have the E220 medium model which can achieve a maximum width of 5 meters.

Compared with the electric louvered pergola, a manual louvered pergola is less expensive, which is a budget-friendly solution for customers.

What’s more, it is easy to install and time saving. There is no need to worry about the arrangement of the wires and motor.

In addition, if you are a DIY lover, a manual louvered pergola offers you a sensory experience where you can see, touch,  and feel about how the pergola works by using the crank by hands to adjust the angle of the blades and open or close the louver for shade or sunshine.


For a manual louvered pergola, we especially recommend the M170 manual control pergola, one of the most popular models, with three optional standard sizes (3m*3m, 4m*3m, and 4m*4m) and two standard colors (dark grey and matt white).

Whichever bioclimatic pergola you choose, it is made of aluminum and thus has longer service life and is of high quality.

It also has good waterproof performance and an intelligent drainage system.

You can also add light strips, aluminum shutters, and sheer curtains to decorate your louvered pergola.
