The different types of 5x3 bioclimatic pergolas available from AKENA

At AKENA, we offer two main configurations for our range of 5x3 bioclimatic pergolas, each designed to meet specific outdoor design requirements.

  • The lean-to model is the ideal solution for creating a natural extension to your home. Its sleek structure blends harmoniously with the existing architecture, as it is fixed directly to the front of the house. This configuration creates perfect aesthetic continuity between the interior and exterior. This model stands out for its ability to create a fluid transition space, transforming the terrace into a true extension of the house. Supported by two posts, it offers a sleek design while ensuring excellent stability.
  • The free-standing model of the bioclimatic pergola, also known as a freestanding pergola, offers maximum flexibility in terms of installation. This independent version, supported by four posts, can be positioned anywhere in the garden, allowing you to create a relaxation area exactly where you want it. Its architectural design allows it to blend perfectly into any landscape, whether it's a secluded terrace or a relaxation area near a swimming pool.

When it comes to roofing, the available options enhance these two basic configurations. The adjustable blade system allows for precise sunlight control, while various side protection options can be added for greater comfort. The motorised blades ensure simple and practical use, quickly adapting the pergola's configuration to weather conditions.

This range of 5x3 bioclimatic pergolas can also be customised with various equipment such as integrated LED lighting, motorised side blinds and weather sensors, allowing you to create a space that is perfectly suited to your needs.

Your questions about the 5x3 bioclimatic pergola

Where can I install a 5x3 bioclimatic pergola?

Installing a 5x3 bioclimatic pergola is a strategic choice to enhance your outdoor space. This particularly balanced size of 15m² offers remarkable potential for creating a functional living space while blending harmoniously with different terrain configurations. Its depth of 3 metres allows for optimal installation at the front of your property, while its width of 5 metres creates a generous space without being visually imposing.

To maximise its bioclimatic potential, a south or south-west orientation is particularly recommended. This layout optimises sunlight management thanks to the adjustable slats, providing effective sun protection in summer while capturing natural heat during the winter months. This strategic orientation also helps to create a pleasant microclimate under the pergola, encouraging extended use throughout the year!

What materials should you choose for a 5x3 bioclimatic pergola?

When designing our bioclimatic pergolas, we made a decisive choice in opting for aluminium as the main material. This choice was based on an in-depth analysis of the specific requirements of 15 m² outdoor structures and the climatic conditions to which they are subjected.

Aluminium stands out for its remarkable mechanical strength, which is particularly suited to the dimensions of a 15 m² pergola. This natural robustness allows us to design structures that are both elegant and solid, capable of withstanding daily stresses while maintaining their structural integrity. For a pergola of this size, aluminium's ability to resist deformation and heavy loads is particularly valuable!

The exceptional durability of aluminium is another major advantage. Even when exposed to extreme weather conditions, such as heavy rain, strong winds or prolonged UV exposure, aluminium retains its mechanical and aesthetic properties. This natural resistance to weathering is reinforced by a specific surface treatment: powder coating. This industrial process guarantees optimal protection against corrosion while offering an impeccable aesthetic finish, available in a wide range of colours.

From a technical standpoint, aluminium offers excellent thermal conductivity, contributing to natural temperature regulation under the pergola. This property, combined with the adjustable blades, optimises thermal comfort throughout the year. In summer, the structure helps to maintain a pleasant temperature by limiting heat build-up, while in winter it helps to conserve heat when the blades are closed.

Please note: Aluminium also allows for high precision in manufacturing, which is essential to ensure the proper functioning of the moving parts of a bioclimatic pergola. This precision contributes to the reliability of the blade orientation mechanisms and the overall durability of the structure, ensuring a long-lasting investment for discerning owners.

What is the average price of a 5x3 bioclimatic pergola?

Of course, it is essential to discuss prices!

A 5x3 bioclimatic pergola generally represents an investment of between £8,000 and £15,000, depending on the level of equipment chosen. This budget includes several essential services that guarantee the optimal completion of the project. For more information, visit our page dedicated to pergola prices.

More specifically, the first step is a customised technical study, which allows us to tailor the structure perfectly to your environment. The bespoke manufacturing in AKENA's workshops ensures impeccable quality, while professional installation guarantees perfect implementation. A manufacturer's warranty completes the package, offering total peace of mind.

Of course, customisation options influence the final price: LED lighting system, side blinds, weather sensors or choice of finishes. Each element is carefully selected to enhance the user experience.
