Just bought and installed a patio cover. It's a pretty unique patio cover. It is made out of aluminum and I can open and close the louvers on the roof whenever I want. The company is Solara Patio Covers. I am a pretty handy guy and it wasn't hard to install at all. I looked all over the market and this is the one I came up with. I attached a picture to show what it looks like. The website is [HYPERLINK@www.patiocover.us] It will have more pictures.
Haighr I had to send them an email with the specifications and then a price was determined. You can have many variables to a patio cover which changes the prices. So I would say the best bet is to contact them.
To answer your question it holds up great so far this summer. It can provide my patio cover with 100% shade. Also I can control how much sun comes into my patio. When it cools down during the nights I like to open the louvers to allow ventalation for my patio. I am still so happy for this product it has been working great.
John, I love this! It's so perfect! Your space looks a lot like mine and I have been thinking a lot about extending our covered area. I love the idea of the louvers. It's a perfect solution for me. I'm definitely checking into this. Your patio space looks awesome!
Wow...that is awesome! I've been looking for something like this for a Potting area...I was thinking of a pergola, but that really doesn't provide too much shade. Up to now, I've installed a couple of arbors, but this would be perfect! Thanks for the info.
