The sun shines down mercilessly or it starts to drizzle? No problem, thanks to the water-repellent surface of the sliding roof, the rain won't affect you. With the two infinitely adjustable fabric tracks, you are protected from the sun and prying eyes at any time of the day. The integrated drainage eyelets ensure that rainwater cannot accumulate on the roof and cause unwanted flooding. Thus, the pergola is even better prepared for rain showers. As a general rule, we recommend removing the roof before heavy rain showers. We must also point out that the cover must be removed in case of snow, as the roof beams are not designed to bear that load. The pergola is assembled with screws made of steel, which cannot be powder-coated. Therefore, they will rust over time under normal weather conditions. However, this rust usually only becomes visible when the roof is disassembled. If this is bothersome, the rust can be easily removed with commercially available rust removers. Note: Please do not wash the cover. The fabric should only be wiped clean. After handover to the carrier, the delivery time can take up to a week.
