A better pergola.
This Northville, Michigan project features a custom StruXure louvered pergola installed over an elevated deck and outdoor kitchen. The homeowner previously had a traditional wood slat pergola, but after it collapsed during a storm, it became clear that a more durable, low-maintenance solution was needed. The Skyview team designed and installed a StruXure system that provides adjustable shade, long-term performance, and a clean architectural look. Unlike wood structures that require constant upkeep, this pergola offers a maintenance-free solution built to withstand the elements and enhance the usability of the space year-round.
A durable upgrade for an outdoor kitchen space.

Replace failing wood with something that lasts.
After experiencing the failure of a traditional wood pergola, the homeowner wanted a solution that would eliminate ongoing maintenance and hold up in all weather conditions. The goal was to create a reliable, low-maintenance structure that would enhance the outdoor kitchen space while providing flexible shade and long-term durability.
“The wood pergola just didn’t hold up the way we expected. After it collapsed, we knew we needed something stronger and more reliable.”
— Mr. Godfrey, Homeowner

StruXure Pergolas
This project features a StruXure louvered pergola system designed to provide adjustable shade and long-term durability. Unlike traditional wood pergolas that require staining, painting, and ongoing maintenance, the StruXure system is built from high-quality aluminum and engineered to withstand the elements. The motorized louvers allow for precise control of sunlight and ventilation, creating a comfortable outdoor environment without the upkeep of wood.
“This project highlights the difference between traditional wood structures and a modern pergola system. The homeowner now has a solution that performs better, lasts longer, and requires virtually no maintenance.”
— Trevor Calero, Skyview Detroit Owner & CEO
The biggest benefit of this project is the long-term reliability of the structure. Instead of dealing with ongoing maintenance and potential failure, the homeowner now has a pergola that is built to perform year after year. It’s a solution that not only looks better, but also removes the stress and upkeep that comes with traditional wood construction.
“The finished pergola looks great and gives us peace of mind knowing it’s built to last. Thank you to Skyview Detroit.”
— Mr. Godfrey, Homeowner
