Premium StruXure Pergolas for Lake Forest, IL, Homeowners

Lake Forest summers are too short to spend indoors, and the winters are too long to waste the ones you get. StruXure Northshore builds louvered pergolas that let you stretch every good afternoon a little further, whether the sun is out, a storm is rolling in off the lake, or the shoulder season is trying to push you back inside. 

We install StruXure pergolas made for harsh Illinois weather conditions. Let us show you the value that a new outdoor structure can add to your home.

Enjoy More Time Outdoors with a Motorized Pergola

Unlike traditional pergolas or fixed patio covers, a StruXure motorized pergola adapts as the weather changes. With the push of a button, you can open the louvers to let in sunshine, partially close them for comfortable shade, or seal the roof when rain begins to fall.

Homeowners throughout Lake Forest appreciate the benefits of a motorized pergola because it offers:

• Adjustable louvers for customized shade and airflow

• Durable powder-coated aluminum construction built for Midwest weather

• Smart technology with optional weather sensors for added convenience

• A low-maintenance alternative to traditional wood pergolas

• A modern architectural design that enhances outdoor living spaces

Instead of limiting your patio to a few ideal weekends each year, you'll have a space that's ready to be enjoyed year-round.

Find the Right StruXure System

Every outdoor space has its own personality, which is why StruXure offers two innovative systems designed to fit different lifestyles.

Pergola X

Our Pergola X is ideal for patios, decks, outdoor kitchens, and entertaining spaces. Its open design creates a seamless connection between your home and backyard while giving you complete control over sunlight and weather protection.

Cabana X

Our Cabana X creates a more defined outdoor retreat. It's perfect for poolside lounges, private seating areas, or homeowners looking to create a resort-inspired escape with additional enclosure and privacy.
