Pergolas & Shade Structures
Aluminium, timber and WPC pergolas, motorised louvre roofs, car shades and shade sails — engineered for Gulf sun and shamal wind.
Shade is what makes an outdoor space usable in this climate. We design and build pergolas and shade structures as engineered elements — proper footings, correct spans, powder-coated finishes and slat angles worked out for the orientation of your plot.

Useful to know
Good to know: materials, spans & shade
A pergola is judged in July, not in January. Material, span and slat angle decide how much of the year you actually sit under it.
Aluminium, timber or WPC?
Aluminium is light, rust-free and lasts longest with almost no upkeep. Treated timber and teak look warmest but need oiling and are vulnerable to termites. WPC gives a timber look with far less maintenance. Galvanised steel is for long spans only.
Why does the finish fade so quickly?
Ordinary paint fails in two Gulf summers. Ask for powder coating at 60–80 micron with a UV-rated warranty, and marine grade if the site is near the coast — salt-laden air attacks a coating faster than sunlight does.
How far can it span without a column?
Aluminium handles 4–5 m clear. Beyond that you need a deeper beam or an extra column — and a supplier offering 7 m in a light section without either is selling you a sag in two years.
What slat angle gives the best shade?
Slats set at 30–45° facing south or west give 60–75% shade while still letting air move through — shade without airflow just traps heat. Motorised louvres let you change the angle through the day and close them against rain.
What height works best?
2.4–3 m. Lower traps hot air underneath; higher loses the shade entirely once the sun drops toward the horizon in late afternoon — exactly when the space is being used.
Which roof covering should I choose?
Polycarbonate blocks about 99% of UV while passing daylight, HDPE shade fabric breathes best and costs least, and insulated sandwich panels give full shade and rain cover. Match the covering to whether you want light, airflow or a proper outdoor room.
What holds it down in a storm?
Concrete pad footings of at least 400 × 400 × 400 mm per column, or chemical anchors into a sound slab. Seasonal shamal gusts reach 120 km/h — a pergola bolted only to paving becomes a sail.
