In short

Which system should you choose?

To enclose a space and keep the view, choose glass curtains or frameless sliding glass. For winter, insulated curtains plus a fixed roof. For shade, a bioclimatic or tensioned fabric pergola. To cover the terrace, a fixed roof or a retractable one that opens in good weather. Every system is made to measure after we see the space.

FAQ

Comparison: frequent questions

Which is better, a bioclimatic pergola or an awning?

A bioclimatic pergola has aluminium louvres that turn to control sun and airflow and, when closed, keep the rain out. An awning or fabric gives shade with a lighter structure. It depends on whether you want a permanent roof or just shade.

Which is better, a bioclimatic pergola or a glass roof?

A glass roof lets the light in and always keeps the rain out. A bioclimatic pergola lets you open the sky and adjust the shade. For a very sunny south-facing terrace the pergola usually fits better.

What are the alternatives to glass curtains?

Frameless sliding glass when there is no side space to stack panels, and insulated curtains when you need insulation.

Which system keeps out the cold?

Insulated double glazed curtains combined with a fixed roof. Single glass systems stop wind and rain but do not insulate.

Why are there no prices in the table?

Every system is made to measure, and the price depends on the size, materials and finish. We give it in the quote, after seeing the space.
