    Maximize Your Outdoor Experience With Pergolas & Gazebos

    Garden pergolas are a wonderful addition to the backyard. They are essential for an outdoor lifestyle. They provide a sheltered area or a shaded walkway over a patio or a deck. Garden pergolas may be used as an extension of the house or they can be freestanding structures. Standalone garden pergolas allow in breeze and sunlight but offer protection from the heat of direct sunlight.

    Wooden Gazebos are either freestanding or attached to the wall of the garden. They are roofed but open on all sides. They offer shelter from rain and shade from the sun. They also double up as an ornamental feature of the backyard. Movable gazebos can be easily moved about. For example, they can be placed in the driveway to provide shelter for cars in the summer.

    Pergolas vs Gazebo

    Garden pergolas have a rectangular shape while wooden gazebos are usually round or octagonal in shape. Gazebos are better when it comes to providing shade from the sun. They are also better at keeping the rain at bay when you want to enjoy the rain without getting wet. While garden pergolas are open on all sides, wooden gazebos can be screened in to protect against mosquitoes in the evening. Wooden gazebos block the sun completely because of their dome-shaped roof while garden pergolas allow some sunlight through the slatted roof.
