What is a lean-to pergola?

The benefits of an aluminium lean-to pergola

A lean-to pergola gives you more space to enjoy life to the full. That is a pretty convincing argument by itself, but the benefits of this type of pergola do not end there. We have listed them for you below:

  • When it's raining, there is no need to walk across the wet grass or through the drizzle to reach your pergola. You can simply step straight into it from your home, without getting soaked. This also comes in handy when you need to head back in to fetch extra drinks or snacks. 
  • A lean-to pergola forms a buffer against the cold and serves as an extra layer of insulation for your façade. That way, you can save on heating costs. 
  • Traditionally, your façade is completely exposed to the elements. Bright sunlight, heavy rain or hail: they all put the outer face of your building to the test. A lean-to pergola adds extra protection to at least one of your façades. 
  • Investing in a lean-to pergola is bound to add value to your home. In other words, it is the smart choice to make for both today and tomorrow.

Are there any downsides to a lean-to pergola?

The answer to this question is simple: there is only one downside to a lean-to pergola. A lean-to structure like this may block some of the natural light falling into the rest of your home. That said, much depends on the materials. If you go for a pergola with lots of glass, you will continue to enjoy maximum natural daylight underneath your patio and in the rest of your home. If you would like to draw in even more light, simply opt for translucent roof louvres.

How to maintain a lean-to pergola

Only a minimal amount of maintenance is required to keep your pergola in top condition for many years to come. All you need to do is clean your lean-to structure once or twice a year using the Renson® Maintenance Set. There is nothing more you need to do to retain the intense color of your pergola and keep the aluminum structure protected against acid rain, UV radiation and the sea air.

Frequently asked questions

The ideal dimensions of your pergola depend on the purpose for which you want to use the canopy cover. This includes the furniture you wish to place underneath it, how much free space you want around the furniture, the inserts and accessories you want, etc. All our lean-to pergolas are customised and can be ordered down to the mm.

The installation of a Renson canopy cover requires the necessary experience and knowledge, which is why this will only be done by an authorised Renson distributor who has been expertly trained. This is the only way you will be able to take advantage of the warranty period.

Renson pergolas that are attached to the house are (almost) always custom-made. Prices are therefore strongly dependent on the required dimensions, accessories, roof types, etc. You can contact our recognised distributor network for a quote.

Enjoy your patio cover all year round with integrated heating, and relax with your favourite tracks coming through the built-in speakers. Alternatively, create a romantic mood in no time at all using our LED lighting. Screens, loggia panels, glass sliding panels and perhaps Linarte walls can also complete your patio cover. With the right accessories, you can create a unique experience underneath your patio cover.

Renson lean-to pergolas are carefully developed, tested and custom-made from aluminium. The warranty on the canopy cover starts after installation by a recognised distributor. The exact warranty you get depends on the type of canopy cover. Carrying out annual maintenance on your patio cover means you can take advantage of the extended paint warranty of 15 years.
