Enjoy the perfect balance of sunlight and shelter
Create cozy, wind-protected spaces with optional vertical privacy walls
Open the louvers by hand or with the included pull rod for full sun and open backyard views
Designed for standard decking boards for a warm, natural wood appearance
Made in North America using premium USA polycarbonate for lasting beauty, strength, and performance
Each kit includes all hub and bracket hardware plus one 36" pull rod for manual adjustment. Lumber sold separately.
Each Louver Tops™ Kit is designed for pergola openings up to a nominal 8' x 8'
(actual coverage approximately 7' x 7' from first to last louver).
For the smoothest operation, we recommend keeping each louver section at 50 sq. ft. or less. Larger pergolas can easily be divided into multiple sections using Cross TOPS™ for easier movement and added architectural style.
Example:
A nominal 10' x 10' pergola opening can be divided into two sections approximately 9' x 4' each with two kits.
For best performance:
Use cedar or redwood lumber
Use nominal 5/4" x 6" boards (actual 1" x 5-1/2")
Keep board lengths 96" or shorter
Avoid treated lumber, which may warp or swell over time
Do not apply oil-based stains directly to polycarbonate components.

Each female hub includes three internal boss', while the male hubs are ribbed to firmly secure its resting position. This design allows for adjustment while preventing the wind from shifting the louvers once set.

This step-by-step manual covers everything you need for a smooth and confident install, from tools required to final adjustments.
Quality parts. Instructions are pretty good. It took me a while to see they wanted 5/4 wood for the louvers. I have access to rough cut lumber (cedar in my case) and thats the only way you get 5/4 these days. 3/4 will work just fine also. If you get rough cut you better have a planer also. The included template kept everything lined up perfectly. We put ours in an existing pergola standing on 6x6 but tied together with 2x4s It was easy to adapt the parts to what we had.
