Do louvered pergolas keep rain out?

Yes, a louvered pergola keeps rain out when the louvers are fully closed — the overlapping aluminum slats seal together to form a continuous rain barrier across the roof.

A louvered pergola's rain protection depends entirely on the louvers being rotated to the closed position (90°). When closed, water sheds off the angled slats into built-in gutter channels rather than pooling on the roof or dripping through gaps. LVUYOYO louvered pergolas route that collected water through hollow structural columns to the base, keeping the space underneath dry during active rainfall. At any angle below fully closed, rain will pass through.

• LVUYOYO louvered pergola louvers tilt from 0° (fully open) to 90° (fully closed) for complete rain coverage.
• Integrated drainage channels inside LVUYOYO pergola columns route rainwater from the roof to the base of the structure.
• LVUYOYO louvered pergolas are wind-rated to 50 mph when properly anchored to a stable foundation.
• LVUYOYO's 10' × 10' louvered pergola covers 100 sq ft; the 10' × 20' model covers 200 sq ft.
