Traditional pergolas have overhangs, while modern pergolas have clean, squared-off corners.
Hybrid pergolas are technically "traditional" pergolas but modified to look more modern.
Manufactured in the USA and backed by a lifetime warranty, our premium vinyl exterior and aluminum frame pergolas are built to stay beautiful forever and are virtually maintenance-free. Use our interactive design tool to find the pergola perfectly suited to your lifestyle, space and preferences.
High Strength. Low Maintenance. Real Shade.
1. HIGH STRENGTH - All structural components have a heavy-duty (and we mean heavy-duty) aluminum frame. The aluminum frame inside the posts (columns) is .150 gauge aluminum, while the beams and rafters have either .060 gauge aluminum (2x6s) or .080 gauge aluminum (2x8s).
2. LOW MAINTENANCE - The exterior of every piece is made of premium extruded vinyl (colored all the way through) that is as beautiful as it is durable. Anyone who has ever had both a vinyl fence and a wooden fence knows how much easier it is to clean and maintain vinyl. Our pergolas are virtually maintenance-free and are guaranteed to never chalk, pit, discolor or become brittle.
3. REAL SHADE - Our pergolas aren't there just to look pretty; they're there to offer REAL shade. Other pergolas might as well come with a bottle of sunscreen, while Sunset Pergolas are essentially lower-cost patio covers.
We know our pergolas aren't the cheapest pergolas on the market, and we're okay with that (even proud of that). Sunset Pergola Kits are made to last a lifetime. If you're looking for a low-cost pergola that will look nice for a couple years before it starts bowing, sagging, discoloring and falling apart, you're in the wrong place (though we'll gladly welcome you back in 2-3 years when you're ready to replace the economy/value pergola you made the mistake of getting). It's very telling that almost 50% of the pergolas we sell are to people replacing a low-cost pergola (as opposed to people buying a pergola for the first time).
Sunset Pergolas are commercial grade... premium all the way and protected by a lifetime warranty. All men and women are created equal... but the same cannot be said of vinyl or aluminum. Just because a pergola has a vinyl exterior doesn't mean it's high-quality vinyl that won't chalk, pit, discolor or chip. Just because a pergola has an aluminum frame doesn't mean it's made of high-gauge aluminum that will hold up to extreme winds, extreme heat, extreme cold and other extreme weather conditions.
If you're going to invest in a pergola, don't go half-way. Spend a little more and get a Sunset Pergola that will not only last a lifetime but will also stay beautiful for a lifetime.

I really like the pergola, my contractor said it was really easy to install and the video really really helped. He said the quality was very good! He had it up in 2 days by himself. If I had to do it over again I might have decided on the 90% shade verses the 75%, but I will see how I like it this winter, that might make a difference.
I am the installer for Lee Pake and and I give The Heritage model pergola a five star. Assembly was straight forward. I did not need to cut anything and installed it as it was. For thoughs who need to cut it will be an easy task as the video described and instructions.
Support is great. If you have any problems support is a phone call away.
If your thinking about a pergola install kit I suggest Sunset Pergola kit. The kits are very well made. Thank you
This was the perfect addition to our new stamped concrete patio. The tan vinyl matches our house perfectly. We had looked at wood pergola options for a while, and then found Sunset Pergola Kits vinyl options and decided to go vinyl to minimize maintenance (especially in our area where wood outdoors gets torched by the sun).
The pergola gives the patio the finished look we were hoping for, and will allow our family of 5 to enjoy the patio even more now. Looking forwarding to putting a fire table underneath for the colder weather. I had our contractor put it up and he was very complimentary of the materials and design. It took 2 professional contractors a day and a half to put it up. The hardest part was the unique nature of how it attached to our home. I considered doing this myself, but I'm glad I didn't. This is not a simple DIY project, especially when you're attaching it to your home. Overall, very happy with our purchase.
Excellent product and quality. I was very impressed with the whole process from quote, ordering, delivery, and assembly. The materials used are first quality and it shows in final product.
PS: We’re getting many positive compliments. I can send photos.
The landscapers that installed my pergola said this is a really good one. So many are simply, vinyl but this has the aluminum inside which is excellent for the weight bearing parts. I'm so thrilled with it. Would highly recommend this!
I absolutely love my pergola from Sunset Pergola Kits! I love being able to lay in my chaise lounge chair and read my book on my shady deck with the fan above me giving a light breeze. And on those nice summer nights it is the perfect cool spot to play cards with our friends well into the night with the lights on and our favorite oldies playing on our speakers. It is my happy place!
I wanted a nice looking pergola for my deck, but didn’t want to pay the steep price of handyman to come and construct one for me. My deck is pretty big, and I knew it would cost a lot of money to install a pergola. With Sunset Pergola Kits I was able to customize my pergola, have it delivered, and a friend of mine and I put it together in just three days! Thank you Sunset Pergola Kits for a great pergola and a great price!
I was always too embarrassed of my patio area to have a BBQ with my friends. Now that I was able to customize my Sunset Pergola Kit to include lights and speakers my BBQs last all night long after the food is gone. I love having an entertaining space that looks so good to share with my family and friends.
