Pergola with Side Walls

Side walls — when the pergola is meant to become a room.

Wind, prying eyes, cold — open pergolas have their limits. Side walls made of glass, fabric, or aluminium louvers turn your pergola into an enclosed space you can use all year round.

Open pergola ≠ enclosed room

A pergola without side walls has its limits.

Wind blows through, eyes look in, warmth escapes.

Wind blows through

In a storm or during the Bise, an open pergola isn’t a comfortable place. The furniture shifts, and guests get cold.

Neighbors can see inside

Open pergolas are on display for the neighbours. The cosy dinner is being watched.

Heat escapes

Patio heater under an open pergola: lots of energy, little effect. The warm air rises up and away.

The side walls are the upgrade that turns the pergola from a garden space into a living space.

Three side wall variants

Depending on the function: glass, fabric, or louvers.

You can also mix and match — e.g., glass on the windward side, a fabric side wall to block the neighbors’ view.

  • Glass side walls Transparent, weatherproof, windproof and rainproof. Ideal for year-round space use and light retention.
  • Fabric side walls Operated like blinds, more affordable than glass, available in 30+ colours. Ideal for privacy and sunny sides.
  • Aluminium Louver Walls Rotatable like the roof. Transparent or opaque at the push of a button — the most flexible solution, premium price.
