FAQ
Questions about R-BLADE.
What is the R-BLADE pergola?
R-BLADE is a motorized louvered pergola with adjustable aluminum louvers that rotate for precise control over sun, shade, and airflow. It combines clean architectural design with smart automation — built for residential and commercial outdoor spaces.
How does the motorized louvered roof work?
Dual-wall aluminum louvers rotate up to 90° on whisper-quiet motors. You can adjust the roof manually via remote or app, or enable optional smart weather sensors that close the pergola automatically in rain for a gapless, watertight seal.
What makes R-BLADE different from other motorized pergolas?
R-BLADE delivers true all-weather protection with a gapless louver design that keeps rain out. Dual-wall louvers prevent backsplash. Concealed hardware keeps the look clean — no visible screws. And it is Miami-Dade NOA approved, meeting the strictest wind and impact standards in North America. See the full comparison →
Is R-BLADE weather-resistant?
Yes. The system is engineered for year-round outdoor exposure — premium extruded aluminum, built-in gutters, concealed hardware, and dual-wall gapless louvers form a sealed protective barrier against wind and rain. Miami-Dade NOA approved for hurricane-prone coastal conditions.
Can R-BLADE be customized for my space?
Absolutely. Every R-BLADE is made to order — any size, any shape, any layout, from a compact patio to a multi-zone commercial rooftop. Personalize color, configuration, and integrated features: LED lighting, fans, heaters, misting, screens, and speakers.
Is R-BLADE suitable for commercial projects?
Yes. R-BLADE is equally at home on a backyard patio and on a hotel terrace, resort poolside, restaurant courtyard, or rooftop bar. The multi-zone configuration and scalable engineering make it a go-to solution for both residential and commercial applications.
Do I need a permit?
Permit requirements vary by city and jurisdiction. We handle permitting in-house on every project — you will receive a permit-ready engineering package with stamped structural drawings included with your order.
How does R-BLADE add value to a property?
R-BLADE adds functional living space and serious curb appeal. Its architectural presence, integrated technology, and premium construction make it a long-term investment that reads as part of the home — not as an add-on.
What maintenance does R-BLADE require?
Very little. The powder-coated aluminum structure and sealed electronics are built for the outdoors. Occasional cleaning with mild soap and water keeps the pergola looking and operating like new.
Does R-BLADE integrate with smart home systems?
Yes. R-BLADE connects to Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit, allowing voice commands and app-based control over louvers, lights, screens, and heaters — a truly smart outdoor room.
