Majestic Outdoors is your trusted StruXure® motorized pergola installer in Durham, NC, and beyond. We build motorized louvered pergola systems engineered to transform your outdoor space into a room you can use year-round.
A traditional pergola gives you shade when the sun happens to be at the right angle. That’s it. When it rains, you go inside. When it gets dark, you light candles. When the afternoon heat rolls in, you move the party indoors.
At Majestic Outdoors, we chose StruXure® Pergola X as our premier motorized pergola system because it solves the fundamental problem with traditional shade structures: they’re passive. StruXure motorized pergolas are active. With motorized aluminum louvers that pivot up to 170 degrees, integrated smart technology, and a precision-engineered extruded aluminum frame, a StruXure motorized pergola doesn’t just cover your outdoor space, it gives you complete control over it.
For Raleigh-area homeowners, that control matters. Summer humidity, afternoon thunderstorms, and unpredictable spring weather demand an outdoor structure that can adapt, not one that leaves you watching from the window.

The flagship StruXure motorized louver rotates a full 170 degrees, giving you precise control over shade depth, sunlight angle, and rain runoff. Adjustable in real time, from fully open to fully sealed.
An enhanced motorized louver system with increased span capability and added structural strength, ideal for larger installations where flagship Pivot 6 performance is needed across a wider opening.
The most versatile motorized louver configuration StruXure offers. Louvers on the Slide system both pivot and retract, giving you true open sky on demand and full weatherproof coverage when you need it.
A sleek, solid-ceiling solution for spaces where permanent overhead coverage is the priority. Same premium aluminum construction as the motorized pergola system, clean sightlines, and no moving parts.
Control your motorized pergola's louvers, lighting, fans, and heaters through the StruXure app, a handheld remote, or your smart home system. Set scenes and schedules for fully automated outdoor living.
Parallel backdrops add privacy and modern visual structure. Glass backdrop walls by Lumon provide wind and weather protection while maintaining your sightlines, with sliding and retractable configurations available.
When you compare a StruXure motorized pergola to a basic wood or aluminum pergola, you’re comparing two different categories of product. A traditional pergola provides fixed shade and requires regular maintenance to stay presentable. A StruXure motorized pergola gives you on-demand weather control, smart technology, integrated accessories, ICC-certified structural performance, and a lifetime warranty. Homeowners who invest in StruXure motorized pergolas consistently report using their outdoor space far more than they did before, across more seasons and more weather conditions. For families who genuinely want to live outside, the value is clear.
Yes. The Pergola X motorized pergola system is available in both attached and freestanding configurations. Attached installations anchor to your home’s exterior and integrate cleanly with your roofline. Our team handles all structural attachment details and permitting to ensure the connection is safe, code-compliant, and weather-tight.
Most residential StruXure motorized pergola installations are completed within a few days once permitting is secured. Permitting timelines vary by municipality across the Raleigh area, but our team handles submissions and tracks approvals throughout. We give you a realistic schedule estimate during your design consultation.
StruXure motorized pergolas come in a range of powder-coat finishes to complement your home’s exterior. Standard colors include white, black, bronze, and champagne, with custom color options available. The finish is UV-resistant and requires no maintenance over the life of the structure.
Yes. StruXure’s motorized pergola technology platform is compatible with Amazon Alexa and Google Home for voice control of louvers, lighting, fans, and heaters. The dedicated StruXure app provides full manual control and lets you create automated scenes and schedules. Our installation team configures everything before we leave so the system works exactly as expected.
StruXure offers a limited lifetime warranty on structural components of their motorized pergolas, transferable if you sell your home. Majestic Outdoors also provides a five-year labor warranty covering all construction and installation work we perform on your project.
Absolutely. The fully extruded aluminum frame, UV-resistant powder-coat finish, and stainless steel fasteners in every StruXure motorized pergola are built for long-term durability across varying climates. The motorized louver system actively manages rain runoff, and the structure meets ICC-certified load standards. Raleigh’s combination of humid summers, UV exposure, and occasional winter weather is exactly the kind of environment where a StruXure motorized pergola outperforms wood, and where motorized weather control pays for itself every season.
