- In this video I install a 4m x 3m grey aluminium pergola with opening roof.
I bought this from the gardening section at our local supermarket.
I hope you find this video useful.

I like the louvered roof on the pergola. Sweet!
Yes it's a great design feature and keeps everything dry in the rain. Thanks for watching 👍
Glad you read the manual, most men I know don’t. Pergola looks great.
A lesson I learned a long time ago. Thanks 👍👍
Thanks
Thank you very much 👍👍👍👍👍
These actually need to be on a floor that is NOT dead level - or the built in draining will not work properly . Also recommended to place the crack handle according to where the sun rises in your location so the louvres follow the direction of the sun when rotated.
Great advice as most patios drain away from the house 👍
nice job Andy looks very smart, thinking of building one of these outside our back door in wood.. your dog chasing your shadow made me laugh, cheers mate take care ..
Yes I thought about building one in wood, but the opening roof feature changed my mind. It's a great feature. Speak soon 👍👍👍
This is a nice looking pergola, also not that hard to install. Maybe this is a good start for us for using a couple of years before adding an extension to the house. Good work, think your mom will sure love it!
It's been used most days since it went up. It makes the table so much more useable.
Anyone else enjoy the dog chasing the finger shadow from 11:30? 😆
She's crazy 🤣
Really good job, the pergola looks solid and well built.
Thanks 👍
Hi Aj, Instructionssay it needs 4 people you think no don't need 4 people I can do it with a little help from Mum.
The pergola looks fantastic mate.
Take care.
Cheers, Huw
Thanks Huw, I knew you would be first. I have checked and for some reason I am only getting Colin, Grahame and your notifications. 15 hours late. Is no good I will try and re subscribe.
@@ajinfrance Ok. How can anamartinez has commented 4 days ago? 🥴🥴
@@WoodenItBeNice there is a glitch in the matrix
Love the pergola! I have one very similar that is 3x3(m) over our hot tub. In white which in hindsight was probably a mistake, could have opted for a darker colour. Being England I'm sure we get a lot more rain than you do but any over time will build up dirt and residue. My question is do you have any advice or tips to help/ aid the cleaning of a pergola such as this particularly the slats. All the best.
We have only used a hosepipe since the video was done, it seems to keep on top of it. I am not sure what else would work better. If you find something then let us know on here 👍👍👍
Looks fantastic, and also quite close to the shutter for the door ?
Yes that's unfortunate but the last time the shutter was closed was 2012 but if needed I can lift it up and off and then put back on the other side. It was a big point of discussion. 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for this video. Can you please share your experience when it comes to temperature under the pergola. Say you are seated in the shade, pergola is closed, do you feel the heat over your head? Thank you
Hi, thanks for watching. No not in this location. I sometimes open the louvres a small amount which lets any warmer air trapped out without letting sun in. I have recently also fitted blinds to the garden side which we use at meal times.
Good job!👍🏻 does the roof leak when it rains? Will this be a good solution for rainy days?
No it doesn't leak it's amazing we had a BBQ under it last week and it was pouring down 🤩
Great video mate. I would have given up after half hour.
Did it take the 90 mins though?
It most certainly did not take 90 minutes, but I guess that's for four people so I did ok. 🤣🤣
@@ajinfrance in any case, I’m very proud of ya.
Can it be fixed to Monoblock?
It can be fixed to anything you can drill a hoile in, make sure whatever you fix it to is also well fixed.
Do you have the manufacturer's name? Would be helpful thanks!
Thanks for the question, I don't know the model or make. I will try and find the receipt but it was bought at Leclerc supermarket in France if that's of any use.
Maybe your Mum will get you a new hammer. Thanks for keeping it real!
🤣🤣 yeah that was amusing. Don't think it was the best hammer in the world. Thanks for watching
