When it comes to creating the perfect outdoor living space, there’s one upgrade that outshines the rest: a smart pergola. If you’ve ever wished you could enjoy your outdoor space no matter the weather — while keeping energy costs down and comfort up — then it’s time to explore how a smart pergola can improve energy efficiency and comfort outdoors. If you’re leaning toward a more personalized design, you can even build your custom cabana to match your style and functional needs.
At StruXure, we’re proud to lead the way in transforming outdoor spaces with our award-winning, American-made, high-quality pergola solutions. Unlike traditional pergolas, which offer limited protection from the elements, our automatic and smart pergolas give you total control over your environment with the simple tap of a remote control or the help of smart home systems.

Bringing Smart Technology Outdoors
Today’s outdoor living experience demands more than just a simple roof or an open-air deck. Modern technology has changed how we think about outdoor comfort. Our motorized pergolas, featuring adjustable louvers and integrated LED lighting systems, are designed to adapt to changing weather conditions automatically. Rain sensors, wind sensors, and remote-controlled features allow your outdoor structure to adjust the louvers to provide the right amount of natural light, shade, or shelter without you lifting a finger.
This smart technology doesn’t just offer unparalleled convenience—it also plays a major role in creating an energy efficient, comfortable outdoor environment year-round.
Energy Efficiency Starts with Shade
Hot summer days can make any outdoor area feel like an oven. But with a smart pergola from StruXure, you can automatically adjust the louvers to block direct sunlight and provide shade exactly when and where you need it. This simple act helps keep your outdoor living space cool without the need for energy-hungry air conditioning units or cooling systems.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, shaded surfaces can be 20–45°F cooler than those that are unshaded, significantly improving comfort in outdoor living spaces. By adjusting your louvered roof based on sunlight exposure and weather conditions, you can significantly reduce your reliance on artificial lighting, cooling, and heating elements. It’s an effortless way to enhance your outdoor living experience while making a smart investment in energy efficiency and overall outdoor comfort.
Durability Meets Design
At StruXure, we don’t believe you should have to choose between style and substance. All of our products are built with high quality materials and weather resistant materials, offering exceptional durability that withstands even the harshest weather conditions.
Our outdoor structures are crafted right here in the U.S.A. and backed by an expansive dealer network that ensures expert installation and service. Whether you’re planning a full backyard transformation or simply want to upgrade your home’s exterior with a more energy-efficient, weather-resistant outdoor structure, StruXure has the smart pergola solutions that perfectly complement any architectural style.
Outdoor Living, Simplified
Imagine a cooler evening with a gentle breeze, your outdoor furniture dry and inviting even after a sudden rain, and your outdoor living area lit perfectly with integrated lighting — no scrambling for covers, no fiddling with umbrellas. This is outdoor living the StruXure way.
Our automatic pergola systems can be customized with integrated LED lighting systems, heating elements for chillier nights, and even smart features that connect directly to your home’s smart home systems. You can adjust the louvers to create customizable shade, ensure weather protection, and even accommodate outdoor speakers to enhance the appeal of your outdoor area.
Combining modern technology with thoughtful design, StruXure’s smart pergolas truly offer the ultimate outdoor transformation experience.
How a Smart Pergola Improves Comfort
Comfort is all about creating the right environment — and with a motorized pergola, you can do just that. Here’s how:
- Protection from the Elements: Smart pergolas provide shade from harsh sunlight, shelter from rain, and even protection from strong winds thanks to advanced weather sensors that automatically adjust your louvered roof.
- Temperature Regulation: By blocking direct sunlight, your outdoor space stays cooler naturally, reducing the need for costly cooling systems.
