Overview
Let your pergola react to the weather
Smart sensors make motorised outdoor systems automatic. A rain sensor closes a retractable roof or louvres when it starts to rain; a wind sensor retracts blinds and awnings before gusts can cause damage; a sun sensor lowers shading when the room starts to heat up.
Upgrades can be added to most motorised systems, including many existing installations, and controlled from remote handsets or smart-home platforms.
