Luxa Aperio 800 Pergola med Skydebart Lameltag

When fully retracted, the Luxa 800 louvres stack into a compact package occupying approximately 15–20% of the total roof area, depending on module dimensions. The remaining 80–85% is completely open sky.

Yes. The Luxa 800 uses a dual-motor system: one motor controls the louvre blade rotation (0–135°), and a second motor drives the sliding mechanism. Both can be operated independently via remote control, smartphone app, or smart home integration.

Yes. When the louvres are fully closed, the double-walled blades interlock to form a sealed waterproof surface. An integrated drainage system channels rainwater through concealed gutters into the hollow columns. The wider gutter profile handles heavy rainfall.

All components — double-walled louvre blades, precision slide rails, beams, and columns — are manufactured from extruded 6063-T5 aluminium alloy with TIGER Coatings powder coat. All fasteners are stainless steel. Aluminium is 98% recyclable.

Standard modules: 3×3, 3×4, 3×5, 4×4, 4×5, and 4×6 metres. Multiple modules can be coupled for larger terraces. The sliding direction is customisable — stack towards the house wall or towards the garden.

Yes. The Luxa 800 motors are compatible with RTS protocol, integrating with cloud hub, Amazon Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. Optional rain and wind sensors trigger automatic roof closure.

Requirements vary by country. In Germany, retractable roofs under 30 m² are often permit-free. In France, structures under 20 m² typically require a déclaration préalable. A retractable roof may be treated differently from a fixed structure — consult your local authority. Your PONARC dealer provides structural documentation.

Clean blades, rails, and frame 2–3 times per year with water and mild soap. Keep the slide rails free of debris for smooth operation. Clear drainage channels before autumn. Lubricate the sliding mechanism annually. The powder coat requires no repainting.

The Luxa 800 is positioned above the Luxa Sereno 700 due to the dual-motor system and precision slide rails. The price varies by module size, colour, and accessories. Request a personalised quote — consultation and measurement are free.

The Luxa 800 is rated for snow loads up to 150 kg/m² in closed position according to EN 1991. The system includes a temperature sensor that automatically opens louvres below 4°C to prevent snow accumulation damage.
