Backyard Remodeling with Somfy Smart Control

Somfy smart control lets you open, close, and adjust your patio cover’s louvers easily. We provide OS System controls with Somfy motors and controllers for the Pergola X line. You can use a smart device, Alexa, or home automation to move the roof.

This control makes your space more flexible. Instead of a fixed roof, you have a patio system that adjusts throughout the day to match how you use your backyard from morning to evening.

How a Covered Patio Zone Improves Backyard Layout

A covered patio helps define your backyard, showing where people can sit, eat, or gather. It also connects the patio to the house, making many Orange County backyards look more finished and easier to use.

Creates a dedicated dining or seating area.
Connects the patio more closely to the house.
Makes the backyard look more finished.
Improves use without adding unrelated features.

Who We Help with Backyard Remodels in Orange County

We help people who want to get more out of their backyard with a patio cover or pergola. Some need extra shade near the house, while others want a smart roof over a dining or poolside area. If your ground layout is already set, the next step is adding an overhead system that fits how you want to use the space.

Homes

For homes, we help you look at patio covers and pergolas for backyards, patios, decks, and side yards. You can compare roof styles, controls, colors, and add-ons based on how your family uses the space. We focus on helping you choose the right product and design. We don’t handle installation or construction, but we can refer you to trusted third-party installers.

Commercial Spaces

We help commercial buyers review larger‑span Pergola X systems for outdoor spaces, including finish choices and features that fit seating and gathering areas. Our patio cover systems are not limited to residential properties; they also work well for restaurants, hospitality properties, and other business spaces.

Our Pergola X Models for Different Backyard Layouts

Pergola X gives you four roof directions for backyard use. Each model changes the way the patio opens overhead, covers the space, and fits the property. At StruXure So Cal, we help buyers compare models based on the space they want to cover. The right fit may be for a smaller patio, a wider outdoor area, a multi‑zone project, or a layout with more open sky.

Pivot 6

Pivot 6 is the model most associated with homeowners. It uses the award‑winning pivot roof with up to 170 degrees of motion, helping you adjust overhead shade as the sun moves across the yard. It also includes Somfy motors and controllers, six standard colors, custom color access, woodgrain choices, and the integrated 360‑degree gutter system.

Pivot 6 XL

Pivot 6 XL is designed for bigger backyard areas and commercial spaces. It handles more rainwater than the standard Pivot 6. If you have a wide patio or a large outdoor gathering area, XL gives you the extra coverage you need while staying in the Pergola X family.

Pivot 6 Slide

Some buyers want more than just adjustable roof coverage. Pivot 6 Slide lets you open the roof for a full view of the sky. The louvers can still pivot, but the system also slides open for a wide, unobstructed view above. This creates a different backyard experience compared to a fixed roof or a standard louver setup.

Pan 6

Pan 6 is the fixed ceiling panel option in the Pergola X line. It’s great for larger projects with multiple zones. In these setups, you might want some areas with fixed panels and others with moving louvers, instead of automation everywhere.

Backyard Spaces We Help Remodel with Our Patio Covers

A patio cover does more than just change the area beneath it. It affects how you use the space around your home and how your backyard works overall. We focus on patio covers and pergolas for outdoor areas that need better roof control, improved shade, and a more useful overhead space for daily life.

Outdoor dining areas: A covered dining area works better when the table gets relief from direct sun and overhead glare. Our patio covers help define the dining area as a more distinct outdoor space, whether set close to the house or built farther into the yard.
Poolside patios: Poolside seating benefits from adjustable shade and airflow during warmer parts of the day. A motorized louvered roof provides a more useful overhead layer.
Lounge and entertaining areas: A lounge area under Pergola X can shift from more sun to more cover as guests move through the space, helping the yard work better for conversation, reading, or evening time outside.
Outdoor kitchens: Outdoor kitchens often need better cover above the prep area and nearby seating. Buyers can also review add‑ons for the patio cover frame, which can help when the backyard needs more functionality beyond the roof.
Compact side yards: Custom‑engineered pergolas can work well in spaces with limited dimensions, helping more of the yard stay active and usable.

Backyard Remodel Finishes and Design Options at StruXure So Cal

Finish selection changes the way the patio cover looks against the house, hardscape, and nearby yard elements. We offer buyers several finish directions across the Pergola X line. You can review color, surface look, and added product options before moving forward with a backyard product choice.

Six Standard Color Choices

The standard lineup includes white, black, gray, bronze, adobe, and beige. Those six colors give buyers a strong starting range for a backyard remodel tied to the home exterior. You can choose a color that matches your house’s exterior colors or patterns.

Custom Color Options

The standard color range may not work for every project. If you need a more specific match, you can order Pergola X systems in thousands of custom colors for a finish that fits your property.

Woodgrain and Custom Finish Options

Woodgrain finishes offer another option if you want a different look. They add more warmth compared to standard painted aluminum. Custom finishes are also available if your backyard needs a more unique style.

Add‑On Options

StruXure also offers add-ons like motorized screens, heaters, fans, lighting, and speakers. Each patio cover setup includes a hidden beam chase to help organize wiring for built-in features.

Features That Improve Backyard Comfort and Use

Backyard comfort depends on roof movement, overhead coverage, and how the system adapts during the day. Features like louvers, built-in drainage, smart controls, and different models make this possible. Depending on your setup, the roof can open, pivot, slide, or stay fixed.

Shade control: Adjustable louvers let you change how much sunlight reaches the patio. You can open the roof for more light or shift it for more cover. That works well over dining areas, lounge seating, and other spots where direct sun moves across the space.
Weather protection: A patio cover does more when water has a place to go. The integrated 360‑degree gutter system helps direct rain away from the covered area. During light rain or shifting weather, the space below can stay more usable.
Roof flexibility: Pergola X gives you more than one roof format. Some models pivot, some slide open, and others combine fixed and moving sections. This gives the backyard a roof style that fits its use.
Smart control options: App control, Alexa compatibility, and home automation support let you move the roof without manual effort.

Can I choose between more than one Pergola X model?

Does the Somfy control come with the system?

Are add‑ons available with the patio cover?

Yes. Add‑ons are part of the product range shown on the site. Buyers can review options such as screens, heaters, fans, lighting, and speakers. Those extras can change how the covered area works during the day or later in the evening. They also help shape a patio cover into a more useful outdoor zone.
