Pergola FAQ
HOW DO I PLAN FOR A PERGOLA?
​
Thanks to our modular designs the planning process can be super simple. Completing our Planning Form will help us to gather all the important information.
​
With our help, the planning of an IKON bioclimatic pergola will prove to be easier than you may expect despite the flexibility to create individual shapes and layouts. Customisation is our passion; every pergola is planned ergonomically according to your entertaining needs with particular attention to location, outlook, maybe an outdoor kitchen and of course your garden furniture. If you have already drawn up some ideas, sketches or plans, let us know and we will realise your vision.
​
You are welcome to send us your own planning guidelines, we always look forward to hearing your ideas. First of all of course, you should consider the following questions:
​
-
What is the perfect position for your pergola in the garden?
-
What about the garden surface? Patio or deck? Maybe a roof terrace?
-
Which shape will fit your needs? Freestanding, against the house - or will it need a platform?
-
Will you need our motorised fabric sidesscreens or sliding glass doors?
-
Will your pergola cover an outdoor kitchen?
If you have it, a floor plan will help us to understand your ideas. You might want to add some other helpful information such as the current garden surface, or perhaps just the overall space that you have available.
​
WHAT CAN I SPECIFY?​

WHICH COLOURS CAN I GET?​
Concerning colour, you can choose from standard Anthracite (RAL7016) or a range of other RAL options or ask us for your own unique hue. On top of these multiple options you can also choose to contrast various parts in alternative shades and various wood effects.
​
HOW DO I CHOOSE THE LOUVRED ROOF?​
In terms of budget, as the roof operation becomes more complicated, costs can go up of course- but with remote control IKON Pavillion Pro you will not pay over the odds. Our rotating blades are great for catching the sun, or providing shade or protection from rain. Choose a colour. Or go for a fully retractable fabric roof with IKON Pavillion Essential.
