The outdoor spaces of our home are an opportunity to enjoy the outdoors and nature without leaving home.

No matter the time of year or the weather. Not even if it is a terrace, garden or balcony. We want to make the most of it.

The use of a pergola that protects and enhances your outdoor space can transform the outside of the home into a comfort area, to share with loved ones or simply to enjoy in the company of a good book.

And just as we talk about your home, we talk about your business.

Attached pergolas. Is it the correct option?

One of the questions that arises when we are going to install a pergola, let's say in the garden, is if we put it attached to the wall or independent, further away from the house.

In addition to a personal issue and, obviously, space, each of the options has its advantages and disadvantages.

However, there are not always large sizes or the perfect space to incorporate the typical elements of outdoor living.

To expand the space in your home, the ideal is to opt for an attached pergola, that is, a solution that takes up little space, highly versatile and elegant in its shapes and light in structure, capable of harmonizing with your home and with the structures already existing.

Remember our maxim: An attached pergola = more living space.

What does a pergola attached to the wall give me?

In addition to offering protection and well-being to the outdoor space, pergolas attached to the wall can contribute to improving energy savings at home.

By acting as a barrier against the sun, the attached pergola reduces the amount of heat entering the home, which reduces the need for refrigeration and air conditioning systems.

Also, on rainy days, it allows you to keep the doors and windows open, which favors the natural ventilation of the house and the circulation of fresh air.

They can also be an aesthetic solution for those who want to add a touch of personality and design to the exterior of their home.

Being available in a wide variety of models, materials and colours, it is possible to find the attached pergola that best suits the architectural style of the home and the client's personal tastes.

In this way, the attached pergola becomes a way of embellishing the exterior of the house and highlighting its presence in the neighborhood. And yes, also to revalue the home.

As we indicated before, it should be noted that attached pergolas are not only a solution for the home, but also for the business environment.

Companies can take advantage of the outdoor space for work meetings, informal meals or relaxation activities, creating a more pleasant and comfortable environment for their employees.

Of course, you do not dedicate yourself to the hostel, since if you have a restaurant, cafeteria or bar, you could improve your terrace area with a pergola attached to the wall, providing your clients with shade in summer and protection from rain or snow in the cold months. And if you also opt for a bioclimatic pergola, you will get an ideal temperature (and adjustable at all times) throughout the year.

Not to mention that, the incorporation of an attached pergola can increase the real estate value of the business and improve the corporate image of the company.

Why is an attached pergola the most practical option for your outdoor space?

In addition to taking up little space, attached pergolas offer a wide variety of designs and materials, which makes them highly customizable according to the needs and tastes of the client.

One of the greatest advantages of a pergola attached to the house is that it automatically becomes an extension of nothing. A cabin that combines the protection of a roof and the freedom of the open air.

This type of structure is like a porch, but lighter and above all more functional than the traditional ones made of work.

An attached garden pergola can have different types of roof.

Among the most common are:

  • A deck of aluminum or wooden crosspieces.
  • A roof made of polycarbonate plates.
  • A system of mobile awnings.
  • A bioclimatic pergola with adjustable slats.

Versatility

The attached pergola is a highly adaptable solution, which allows covering large surfaces such as gardens or terraces without the need to duplicate the columns.

Thanks to its structure fixed to the wall, it is possible to create a uniform and stylized coverage, which allows you to enjoy the outdoor space with total comfort.

In addition, some models of attached pergolas offer the possibility of coupling several units, creating a larger and more personalized structure without having to add additional columns.

Another advantage of attached pergolas?

Its easy integration with other elements of the garden or terrace, such as plants or outdoor furniture.

Aesthetics of this type of pergolas

The harmonious introduction of the attached pergolas into the outdoor space, perfectly leaning against the wall of the house, allows for the creation of a beautiful solution of continuity between the outdoor and indoor space, giving life to a single, balanced and functional domestic living room.

In turn, there is also the option of equipping the attached pergolas with a lateral closure. Increasingly popular solution among those who want to enjoy outdoor space at any time of the year, without sacrificing protection and comfort.

Side closures, such as sliding windows, allow you to create an area protected from wind, rain or excessive sun, without compromising the beauty and views of the surroundings. That is, you can enjoy the outdoors at any time of the day, and in any weather condition.

With Six96, the closure can be incorporated even with the installation of the pergola already completed: what will be created will be a true independent space, new and functional.

For a protected autonomous environment, but which offers, at the same time, a charming panoramic view, Six96 offers you, for example, its bioclimatic pergola with contemporary lines that allows the introduction of a double closure: sliding windows to obtain shelter, protection and transparency and screen for more intimate environments and sheltered from light.

What material should my pergola attached to the wall be made of?

Keep in mind that, in addition to the type of closure, it is important to carefully choose the material of our attached pergola, which can essentially be of two types: aluminum or wood.

Aluminum pergola

Aluminum is an extremely light material and, at the same time, solid, which resists the passage of time and the weather.

Thanks to its lightness, it allows to create delicate and elegant shapes, reducing the size to a minimum. Due to these characteristics, aluminum can be considered the ideal material for an attached pergola that does not fear even the most adverse weather conditions.

For example, our bioclimatic pergolas incorporate a rain evacuation system, in addition to supporting winds of up to 175 km/h.

Attached wooden pergola

Wood is a material that has always been valued for its beauty, its warmth and its ability to integrate perfectly with nature.

For this reason, it is a very chosen choice when opting for a pergola, since it allows you to create an elegant and natural environment in the outdoor space.

Despite being resistant to weather conditions, wood requires regular maintenance to preserve its characteristics and strength over time.

It is important to apply specific treatments that protect the wood from humidity, fungi and insects, and that provide it with greater resistance and durability.

At Six96 we love wood. It's true. But not for our pergolas.
