Basic differences between pergolas and pavilions
design and structure
- A pergola consists of columns and an open roof made of cross beams or slats. It is solidly built and is permanently installed. The open and airy design only offers partial protection from the sun. However, a pergola creates a unique ambience in your garden all year round.
- A gazebo consists of a solid frame and a completely closed roof, but is significantly lighter than a pergola. The mobile roof can be easily assembled and dismantled. Since the roof is usually made of fabric, a gazebo can usually only be used in summer.
functionality
- Pergolas are great for creating outdoor spaces for relaxation and entertaining. The columns and crossbeams are ideal for attaching decorative elements such as plants and vines. A wooden pergola is best for this.
- Pavilions offer an enclosed space that provides plenty of shade and is ideal for outdoor dining areas. Even when it rains, you can stay there comfortably. However, a pavilion is not suitable in heavy rain or storms.
Why a pergola from Sky Pergola is the best choice
adaptability and aesthetics
Sky Pergola pergolas are known for their high level of adaptability. They can be customized to suit your needs and the style of your garden.
Our range includes matching slatted walls and glass side walls that provide additional protection and privacy. Our side blinds protect your terrace or garden from wind, weather and prying eyes.
Conventional gazebos, on the other hand, are less flexible and it is more difficult to create individual designs with high-quality and effective solutions . Matching side walls are usually only available in fabric.

flexibility in use
A pergola offers you the ideal mix of openness and sun protection. Unlike a gazebo, which provides shade and protection from rain, a pergola allows you to enjoy sunlight and fresh air.
durability and maintenance
The materials used by Sky Pergola are not only aesthetically pleasing but also durable and low maintenance. All of our pergolas are made of powder-coated aluminum.
Our unique selling point: We manufacture the finished pergola kits in our own production facility, which means we can always guarantee the highest quality standards.
Since gazebos are usually made of fabric, discoloration can quickly occur due to the sun. In the long term, the textiles fade and need to be replaced.
space for creativity
By combining different lighting and decorative elements, you can create a pergola that is not only functional but also looks beautiful. Our pergolas are all equipped with LEDs on the frame - some models also have LED slats. Heating solutions such as radiant heaters or integrated fireplaces are suitable for winter so that you can spend time outdoors even in cooler temperatures. A pergola therefore offers many more options than a gazebo.
