Apex is the no-compromise tier of the Hansø lineup. Built for extremes. Engineered for the people who refuse to settle.

Apex vs. Cheap Pergolas ($1,000 – $6,000)

The difference isn't a price tag. It's a category. Cheap pergolas are patio products. Apex is architecture built to last generations.

	Cheap Pergolas	Hansø Apex
1. Frame Material & Weight	Thin-wall T4 or T5 aluminum, often steel-mixed. Light, hollow, cheap to ship.	T6 aerospace-grade aluminum, 43% stronger than T5. Apex is up to 5x heavier than cheap pergolas, with thicker walls, wider beams, and far more material at every connection.
2. Frame Engineering	Welded joints with thin connectors. Fails at the corners in moderate storms.	Reinforced TitanCore engineering throughout. Engineered to ignore the storms that take cheaper pergolas down.
3. Louvers	Single-layer with plastic clip mounting. Rattles immediately, warps within a few seasons.	AeroCore Pro™ Dual Chamber louvers, extruded as a single piece, with rubber grommets sealing between every louver.
4. Coating	Generic single-layer powder coat. Fades to chalky white within 2–3 years.	AkzoNobel premium coating. The world's #1 coating, used by NASA, Aston Martin, and luxury yachts.
5. Wind Rating	Unrated. Collapses in moderate storms.	167 mph. Past Category 5 hurricane levels. Independently certified.
6. Snow Load	Unrated. Often fails under the first heavy snowfall.	65 PSF. More weight than the average rooftop carries.
7. Lifespan	5–10 years before structural failure.	40+ years. Engineered to outlast the home it stands beside.

Apex vs. Mid-Market Pergolas ($6,000 – $15,000)

⚠ Worth Knowing — The Wind Rating Trick: Most mid-market competitors claim 120, 130, even 165 mph wind ratings. In reality, the highest independently certified rating in this tier sits around 92 mph. The bigger numbers are usually marketing copy with no engineering report behind them. If a competitor lists a higher rating, ask for the documentation. Most won't have any.

Mid-market pergolas are engineered to a standard. Apex is engineered past it, past mid-market, past our own Horizon, past everything in the category until you hit custom builds costing four times more.

	Mid-Market Pergolas	Hansø Apex
1. Material Thickness & Weight	T5 aluminum at standard wall thickness. Standard structural mass.	T6 aerospace aluminum, 43% stronger than T5. Apex is up to 5x heavier than mid-market pergolas — and 42% heavier than even our own Horizon. Thicker walls, wider beams, heavier baseplates.
2. Louver System	Single-layer or basic double-layer louvers. Often rattle in storms.	AeroCore Pro™ Dual Chamber louvers, extruded as a single piece with rubber grommets between every louver. Silent in any wind. Watertight when closed.
3. Wind Rating	Real-world certified rating around 92 mph maximum. Higher claims are usually uncertified marketing copy.	167 mph. Past Category 5 hurricane levels. Independently certified and documented.
4. Snow Load	30–40 PSF.	65 PSF. Roughly double the load-bearing capacity.
5. Coating	Generic industrial powder coat. Visible fade within 5–7 years.	AkzoNobel premium coating. Used by NASA, Aston Martin, and luxury yachts. 10-year warranty.
6. Baseplates	Aluminum baseplates that pit in coastal or poolside environments.	Reinforced SUS304 marine-grade stainless steel. Same alloy as yacht hardware and offshore platforms.
7. Smart Features	Proprietary apps. Manual or basic motorized louvers.	Full smart-home integration. Virtually silent motor. SoftGlow™ LED recessed inside every louver. Optional electric remote-controlled shades.

Apex vs. Custom & Luxury Pergolas ($20,000 – $90,000+)

This is where Apex actually competes. Same engineering, same materials, same hurricane rating, at a fraction of the cost.

⚠ Worth Knowing — Even At This Tier: Some luxury brands publish wind ratings of 160, 170, even 200 mph without independent engineering certification. The premium price tag isn't proof. If a custom builder advertises an extreme rating, ask for the certification report. Apex's 167 mph rating is documented, independently verified.

	Custom & Luxury Pergolas	Hansø Apex
1. Material Grade & Weight	T6 aerospace aluminum at standard wall thickness.	T6 aerospace aluminum with substantially more material throughout. Apex is heavier and thicker than most custom builds in this tier — including dealer-installed pergolas costing three to five times more.
2. Louvers	Double-layer louvers, sometimes dampened, occasionally sealed.	AeroCore Pro™ Dual Chamber louvers, extruded as a single piece. Rubber grommets seal between every louver, creating a continuous waterproof barrier when closed. Built like a yacht deck.
3. Coating	AkzoNobel or comparable premium coatings.	AkzoNobel premium coating. Same product, same warranty.
4. Wind & Snow Ratings	140–180 mph wind, 50–70 PSF snow. Independently certified by the better brands; marketing copy at the rest.	167 mph wind, 65 PSF snow. Independently certified. Right in the middle of the luxury range.
5. Smart Features	Full smart-home integration, often proprietary. Visible motors. Bolt-on lighting.	Full smart-home compatibility, multi-platform. Invisible silent motor. SoftGlow™ LED recessed inside the louvers themselves.
6. Sizing	Custom dimensions available, priced accordingly.	Standard sizes engineered to fit the dimensions most custom buyers end up picking anyway.
7. What You're Paying For Above Apex	Dealer network. Showroom overhead. Install crew. Brand premium. A custom dimension you may not need.	Engineering. Materials. Direct-to-you delivery. Nothing else in the price.

Five Generations. Built For Extremes. <span>Built For The Uncompromising.</span>

Hanso Apex, Gen 5

Five Generations. Built For Extremes. Built For The Uncompromising.

Heavier. Stronger. Quieter. 40% more material than Horizon. 167 mph wind certified. 65 PSF snow load. Engineered to a spec that doesn't make commercial sense, for the patios that don't either.

AeroCore Pro™ Dual Chamber Louvers: <span>Best Made Better.</span>

Dual Air Temperature Seal

AkzoNobel™ Premium Powder Coat

Water Channels

SoftGlow™ LED Lighting

AeroCore Pro Water Seals

6063-T6 Aluminium

Dual-Chamber Louvers

Most pergolas show their age in the louvers first. Apex doesn't. AeroCore Pro™ is two chambers of aluminum extruded as a single continuous piece, with no bond lines to fail and no seams to crack. The geometry holds for 40+ years.

20°F Cooler Underneath

An insulating air gaps inside every AeroCore Pro™ Dual Chamber louver blocks radiant heat at the source. The space below stays up to 20°F cooler than single-layer louvers in direct sun.

Silent and Watertight In Any Storm

Hurricane winds. Torrential rain. Heavy snow melt. The conditions most pergolas leak through, Apex holds against. Rubber seals between every louver create a continuous waterproof barrier when the roof closes.

Hansø Apex. Built For Extremes and Those Who Want the Best.

Up to 167 MPH Wind and <span>65 PSF Roof Snow Load Rated. </span>

Up to 167 MPH Wind and 65 PSF Roof Snow Load Rated.

167 mph winds. 65 PSF of snow. Apex is certified past Category 5 hurricane levels and engineered to hold through the worst weather your yard will ever face.

35% More T6 Aluminum. <span>Thicker. Heavier. Wider.</span>

35% More T6 Aluminum. Thicker. Heavier. Wider.

35% More T6 Aluminum vs. our Horizon Pergola. Thicker aluminum walls. Larger beam profiles. Heavier baseplates. More material at every load-bearing connection. Apex is engineered to a structural standard, not a price point. The kind of build that doesn't flex in any extreme conditions.

Smart Motorized Roof Control. <span>Phone, Alexa, or Google Home.</span>

Smart Motorized Roof Control. Phone, Alexa, or Google Home.

Electric, Remote Controlled Shades

Motorized shades drop from the structure on command, transforming the pergola from open to enclosed in seconds. Wind, sun, and privacy controlled with a remote or your phone. The fourth wall of an outdoor room. Invisible when retracted.

SoftGlow™ LED Lighting <span>Inside the Louvers.</span>

SoftGlow™ LED Lighting Inside the Louvers.

Most pergolas mount LED strips to the frame. Apex hides them inside the louvers. SoftGlow™ LED is recessed inside every louver, casting architectural ambient light from the structure itself. Dimmable. Dual-color. Invisible when off.

Invisible Almost <span>Silent Motor</span>

Invisible Almost Silent Motor

Engineered to operate in near silence and stay completely hidden within the frame. No exposed mechanisms. No mechanical noise. The roof opens and closes the way a luxury car's panoramic glass does. Quietly. Smoothly. Invisibly.

43% Stronger T6 Aerospace-Grade <span>Aluminum.</span>

43% Stronger T6 Aerospace-Grade Aluminum.

T6 aerospace-grade aluminum is the alloy aircraft wings are built from and yacht hulls are formed with. 43% stronger than the standard T5 most pergolas in the category use.

AkzoNobel™ Premium <span>Powder Coating.</span>

AkzoNobel™ Premium Powder Coating.

The world's #1 coating. The same finish trusted by NASA, luxury yachts, Aston Martin, and Rolls-Royce now protecting your pergola for the next decade.

TitanCore™ Gen 2 Frame

Double-channel internal structure for full-length rigidity helps to improve wind resistance by up to 38%. T-connectors locking every beam at the top. Two engineering moves that turn the frame from a bolted assembly into one rigid structure.

SUS304 Reinforced <span>Baseplates</span>

SUS304 Reinforced Baseplates

Where the pergola meets the ground, two things happen. Wind shears hardest. Moisture sits longest. Most baseplates fail to one or the other within a decade. Horizon uses reinforced SUS304 marine-grade stainless steel, built to absorb both for the life of the structure.

AeroCore Pro™ <span>Vibration Dampeners</span>

AeroCore Pro™ Vibration Dampeners

Every louver is mounted on a precision-engineered vibration dampener and a water seal. The same principle that gives a luxury car its silent ride. Wind energy is absorbed at the source, before it travels through the frame as rattle, hum, or fatigue. Silence by design. No spillover.

2x Thicker <span>Reinforced Beams </span>

2x Thicker Reinforced Beams

Thanks to T6 Aluminum. Engineered for strength—up to 30% stronger than our class leading T5 Aluminum Gen 4 Pro+ Pergola. Triple-layer protection built to endure and resist the harshest weather conditions

Dedicated Electrical <span>Channels</span>

Dedicated Electrical Channels

Most pergolas run electrical wiring through the same channels as drainage. That works until a seal fails, a wire frays, or a storm pushes water past a connection. Horizon uses a dedicated electrical channel, separated from the water management system entirely.

A Sealed Roof, On Command.

Each louver closes against the next with engineered precision edge to edge, sealed at every joint. Rain runs down the surface into the integrated gutters. None of it reaches the space below.

The Gutters You’ll Never See.

Concealed gutters run within the structural frame itself, channeling rain along the same lines as the architecture. No box gutters. No bolt-on runs. Nothing breaks the silhouette.

Why California Builder of the Year Chooses Hansø.

What Hansø offers more than anything else is a complete package. You've got the shades, the lighting feature, the drainage system, the heating system already built in, and you did it electronically, which makes it very convenient for the homeowner. So the Hansø pergola, for the cost, it is probably one of the best products in the market.

It comes down to material and mass. The Apex is built from T6 aerospace aluminum (43% stronger than T5) and carries up to 5x the material of a cheap pergola, and 42% more than even our Horizon, with thicker walls, wider beams, and heavier baseplates. Its AeroCore Pro™ dual-chamber louvers are extruded as a single piece and sealed with rubber grommets between every louver, so they are silent in any wind and watertight when closed. Reinforced SUS304 marine-grade stainless baseplates anchor it against extreme wind and salt air. That combination is what earns the 167 mph rating, the 65 PSF snow load, and the 40+ year lifespan.

Yes. Like every Hansø, the Apex ships pre-machined with a step-by-step manual and video guidance, and assembles much like flat-pack furniture. Because it is our heaviest, most robust structure, plan for a capable build with two or more people. And if you would rather not lift the extra mass, our optional professional installation is the easy route.

We wanted a sleek, contemporary design to match our modern home, and this pergola fits perfectly. It complements our backyard with clean lines and provides shade over our outdoor kitchen. The quality is outstanding - durable, powder-coated, and wind-resistant.The price was much more reasonable than other options we looked at.

Barry California Builder of the Year

Choosing the Hanso Pergola was the best decision for our summer house. Its lightweight, rust-proof aluminium and easy installation made it a perfect fit. Now, we have a cozy space for dining, cooking, and relaxing outdoors - all within budget! It’s stylish, functional, and has completely transformed our backyard into a versatile outdoor haven for the whole family.

Neal California Builder of the Year

I was looking for a sleek, modern pergola that was strong, but didn’t come with the usual sky-high price tag. Hansø was exactly what we needed. The quality exceeded our expectations, and as soon as we saw the first one installed, we ordered another. The design, the durability, and the little details - like the adjustable louvers made it the perfect choice.

Our Backyard Space Looks Like A Resort

We ordered two 10x10 Hanso pergolas in mid June of 2025. The pergolas were promised in 14 weeks but were not delivered until Dec 2026 and then the wrong size shades were shipped! The construction of the pergolas was straight forward and my husband and two sons knocked out the project in about 4 hours. The replacement shades arrived in April 2026 and we finally have our outdoor space completed albeit the time to receive all the pieces to this order was ridiculous. Hanso gave us a credit with which we ordered two strands of lights and a table top fire pit; we are still waiting on the table top fire pit. Customer service did their best to work through the circumstances and we finally can enjoy our space. Hanso makes a really nice product and we love how the pergolas look in our backyard. It completely matches our aesthetics and compliments our paver patio. I would recommend this product but warn that patience is key when dealing with this company.

Love our new Hanso pergola!

We ordered the 10x13 model in October and received it in 4 weeks. Weather didn't permit setup till yesterday (4/11/26). Assembly was tedious, but every bolt, track, and shade fit perfectly. The engineering is superb. In its 1st 24 hours, it has attracted 3 neighbors calling to ask how they can get one. The track lighting is a nice touch. We love it!

Couldn't be Happier

We just had our Hanso pergola installed and couldn’t be happier with the result. The quality and finish of the materials are exceptional and clearly built to last. Just as impressive was the NAI installation team — first-rate, professional, and extremely conscientious throughout the entire process. From start to finish, this was a very positive experience, and it’s something we would happily do again without hesitation

Just what we were looking for.

Ordered the 10x10 Hanso pergola during a Black Friday sale back in 2024. It was a long wait for delivery (May 2025), but everything was delivered in excellent shape. Directions were easy enough to follow and the build was simple. I just took my time and didn't rush the process. The construction of the pergola is awesome. Everything fit together without any issues. We had our landscape contractor come out and pour concrete footings underneath our paver patio, so the pergola is properly bolted to the ground. We love it! Love how it looks in our backyard. It has the modern look and feel that we wanted and matches our backyard furnishings and aesthetic perfectly. I would definitely recommend this product.

Just Awesome Addition to our Back Yard

We are so impressed with the quality of this pergola! The set up was relatively easy for a 79, 78 and a 75 year old. I do think the instructions could be a little clearer or provide a more detailed video. But it is up!

Thank you so much for sharing this, what an impressive accomplishment! We’re thrilled to hear you’re enjoying the quality of the pergola and that setup went well. We also really appreciate your feedback on the instructions and video guidance; that’s helpful input we’ll be sure to share with our team as we continue to improve. Wishing you many wonderful moments enjoying your new pergola!

A Whole Other Level

We are in LOVE with our yard now with the 13x13 Hanso Pergola! We added 2 shades for the summer sun and an outdoor tv, extending the living space of our home. Our pergola lets us enjoy time with family and friends, along with a nice fire in the evenings. Our outdoor life went from boring and uneventful to a place where we are making memories and truly enjoying life! The Hanso team is easy to work with and they truly care about their products. We recently had 65mph winds and the pergola didnt budge! The construction is like no other, proving it is the best one out there, amongst many. If you are considering improving your time outdoors, you will not be disappointed!

Wow! Thank you so much for sharing this! We absolutely love hearing how your pergola has transformed your yard into a space for gathering, relaxing, and making memories with family and friends. It’s especially great to know it stood strong even through high winds, that’s exactly what we design for. We truly appreciate your kind words about our team and craftsmanship, and we’re honored to be part of such a special outdoor space. Enjoy every moment!

The larger pergola is what we needed

We selected the largest percola available at the time to serve as a spa covering. There is plenty of room underneath for both the spa and other furniture. Everything was packed with care and arrived in great condition. Was easy to assemble with 2 adults. Highly recommend purchasing. This is our second pergola from Hanso.

Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, and for choosing Hanso again! We’re thrilled to hear the larger pergola was the perfect fit for your spa and that everything arrived in great condition and was easy to assemble. Your continued support truly means a lot to us. Enjoy your outdoor space!

Loving our Hanso pergola

We needed a strong patio cover for the high desert winds. We chose the 10 x 10 model. It's very sturdy and perfect for sun shelter during the days and for viewing the stars at night with the louvers open. It's tall enough that it doesn't obstruct the view from inside. Would highly recommend!

Thank you so much for sharing, Cheryl! We’re glad to hear the pergola is standing strong against the desert winds and providing the perfect balance of sun shelter by day and stargazing by night. It’s great to know the height and design work well with your view too. We truly appreciate the recommendation!

Hanso Pergola

My husband and contractor were able to set up the pergola and 2 screens by working straight for 9 hours in one day. (The parts are heavy). We have kept the slats closed and it has provided lovely shade during the summer. The gutter worked well during recent rain. We rest there during the day and ur family enjoys congregating there in evening. Grateful we made the decision to get Hanso.

Worth the wait

So far so good, we’ll see how it fairs through a Montana winter. The wait was excessive, but customer service truly did their best to pacify me through the whole process. Customer service gets an A+! I Packaging was phenomenal, nothing broken, with no missing pieces. We had friends help with the installation, several comments about the shade instructions that were not ideal but we got them up and they work perfectly.

Thank you Hanso! We would highly recommend recommend your product!

13 x 13 White Pergola with Sun Shades

We love our new pergola. The main structure was shipped and received within the timeframe quoted upon purchase. Some of the shades came later put the team at Hanso kept us informed of their status until received.

The assembly process was straightforward and the completed structure is stable and strong. The louvres (manual type) operate smoothly and are water tight when closed. The pergola is the perfect size for our new outdoor reclining sola, two recliners and a fire pit table. We will use this outdoor room for three seasons in NY. The heat produced by the fire pit table is held in by the sun shades.

The customer service team was responsive and responded quickly to all of my inquiries along the way.

Thank you Hanso!

Like having an extra room on our house!

Last week we installed a 13'x19' Hanso Pergola on our back patio and now we are wishing we had done this years ago! So far, this is the hottest week of the year here in SoCal, and because of our Hanso pergola, we are able to be outside in the wonderful shade enjoying the breeze and our backyard birds. It did take us longer to assemble and install than we had thought it would, but we are very satisfied with the quality of the hardware and the finished aesthetic.

Exceptional Pergola

We recently completed the excavation and construction of our backyard. I considered a number of alternatives before deciding to invest in a Hanso pergola. I considered ones that were far less expensive, but I decided to invest in a high quality pergola that would last and hold up to New England winters. I bought a 13x10 black pergola with electric roof, lighting and two side shades for privacy. It is sturdy, beautiful, and functional.
My main purpose in purchasing was to protect my furniture from the elements, but on hot days I have enjoyed the shade. The electric roof is a great feature and I enjoy opening it to see the sky and closing it to avoid the rain. I am very happy with the Hanso pergola. It adds an element of luxury to our backyard.

After rearranging the furniture to pull it in 1.5 feet from the edge of the pergola, it does a much better job of protecting the furniture from the rain.

I love it!

Works well! Very solid and modern.

Beautiful Pergola

I ordered the 13X19 white Pergola. I received it in October and had it installed early November. I can’t wait to really use it this year. It is beautiful . This was the perfect addition to my yard. Will provide the shade that I desperately needed. the quality of the pergola is the best. So worth the money.

13x19" pergola, free standing, motorized, with sun screen

I love the gazebo--the installation was simple, well laid out and with quality materials---I just have positive things overall to say. I have two gripes that I hope they will address. One is that the dimensions given are hard to deduce if they are from the edge of the legs or the edge of the mounting plate and it would have been nicer to have center-to-center dimensions from leg to leg to properly place the caissons/mounting substrate. The other is the LED light kit. Mine is a very cool white LED which is very harsh at night on the eyes--it also is not dimmable, which makes it a waste of time and money to me. It is mounted on the side of the gutters facing out in lieu of down, so it is impossible to get out of the glare. 2700K would have been much better, even 3000K, but mine is bluer--probably in the 4000-5000Kelvin range and frankly isn't appropriate. I will have to relight the entire structure and take it off the motor control to make them dimmable.

Beautiful addition

Just finished construction of 13x19 pergola. Easy install, 2 people, well built and great finished product. Delivery was a bit slow but worth the wait. So happy that I chose Hanso. see video attached

We recently renovated our backyard

We recently renovated our backyard and were on the lookout for the perfect shade solution. After trying a couple of other products which didn’t quite live up to the hype, we stumbled upon this one. Installation was a breeze, and the quality is top-notch. Our backyard BBQs have been so much more enjoyable without the relentless sun beating down on us. Plus, it's become the talking point when we have guests over. Highly recommend!

After a long delivery delay, it finally did show up and we have it installed. I have not yet installed the heaters or the privacy screens. But I’m very happy with the quality and aesthetic and functionality of the louvers. The installation instructions weren’t very clear. But I think it’s going to work out nicely for us.

It all went well. I would improve the install instructions a bit especially with respect to the installation of the slider for the pulldown screen.

I have installed the pergola but I haven’t put on the shades yet. Went together easy and quickly. I can’t wait until early summer so I can enjoy our deck. The sun is blazing back there in the afternoon and this pergola should do the trick. Shades will be on the Lind side away from the house.

When I started this process of making my summer home into my permanent home I knew I needed a new deck and although I love the sun I don’t like sitting outside in it. I called a couple of local companies who did rainproof pergolas and their prices were close to $30,000. When I stumbled upon your advertising it looked like just what I needed except at that time Hanso didn’t have white ones. I called to verify that and was told in the fall, Hanso would. I waited and placed my order after speaking to someone at Hanso. Your customer service is extraordinary. My son cautioned me that this company was a scam because it seemed too good to be true. Although it took a long time to get my pergola I am thrilled with the pergola. I am 58 years old and I was able to put 90% of this together on my own. I have no experience with this kind of work, but still managed to successfully put it together. The louvre opens and closes in a second and with no effort. As happy as I am with the pergola I wanted to make sure you understood how grateful I am for your support, empathy and helpfulness in securing me with receiving this. I am sure you were tired of my phone calls, but you were always gracious about them. I loved that every call was reiterated in an email so there was verification of what was discussed. I just wanted you to know that I really appreciate your service and this company. I am still in the process of renovating my home, but this is one project I can now check off the list. I have no doubt that future orders are coming your way based on how many neighbors have already admired my new deck and pergola.
Sincerely,
Jacqueline

He got multiple issues about the shades and louvers but customer support was able to assist him with his concerns. He rated that he is so satisfied.

I've seen all the ones they sell at Costco and I've looked them up. Other pergolas, but there is nothing like yours and you see that tiny house in the background. It is it perfectly the the the metal.
Yes, I I thought. It's like, you know, a seamless extension, a seamless, seamless background, yeah.
It looks perfect. It was perfect for that tiny house. I bought it for the tiny. And it was it just it. Just blends really well with it and I was really, really happy that I picked that that one. Perfect.

We love our Pergola and the added bonus of putting up ourselves has given us extra satisfaction. It took my 16 year old daughter and I about 4 hours to assemble it. I do consider myself a bit of a “handy lady” but as advertised the assembly was not difficult at all. We literally had dinner under it the day we built it! Thank you Hanso for providing both a great product and experience for my family!
