Custom Motorized Pergola & Four-Season Restaurant Expansion – Astoria, NY

A Retractable Pergola is an attractive outdoor structure with slatted roofs that can be adjusted to block sunlight and protect from rain. These structures are a popular option for homeowners looking to add a canopy to their home.

Vision Art Aluminium successfully completed a custom four-season motorized pergola enclosure for a restaurant in Astoria, NY, transforming an unused outdoor area into a beautiful, weatherproof event space.

Our client, Jack, wanted to expand his restaurant to accommodate more guests and private events without constructing a traditional building addition. We designed and fabricated a fully custom aluminum enclosure featuring a motorized pergola roof, motorized guillotine windows, and thermally broken bi-folding doors, seamlessly connecting the existing restaurant with the new outdoor space.

The client selected a bold red finish to complement the restaurant’s architectural design and create a unique, eye-catching atmosphere. The engineering, fabrication, and production process required approximately three months, while our experienced installation team completed the project in just 10 days.

The finished enclosure provides a fully insulated, waterproof, four-season outdoor dining area that can be enjoyed year-round. The motorized roof and windows allow the restaurant to quickly adapt to changing weather conditions, while the large bi-folding doors create an open-air experience during warmer months.

By adding significant usable square footage, Jack now has a versatile space for private parties, special events, and additional dining capacity. This investment is expected to generate a strong return by increasing seating capacity and creating new revenue opportunities throughout the year.
