Pergola Oasis Created at Arvida Retirement Village in Kerikeri
Expanding outdoor spaces for comfort and style is what we do best at Shadeland, and our latest pergola installation at Arvida Retirement Village in Kerikeri is a testament to that. The homeowners wanted a functional and stylish solution that blended seamlessly with their black roof and white brick home.
The pergola was constructed with a durable matt black powder-coated frame, paired with frosted white translucent panels that offer both aesthetic appeal and practical benefits. At 4.5mm thick with a 10-year warranty, these panels allow natural light to filter through while reducing heat by up to 70%, creating a well-lit yet cool outdoor area perfect for entertaining.
The structure was carefully designed to integrate with the home’s existing features. Soffit brackets and three custom-welded back support posts provided secure attachment to the house and deck, while reinforced decking joists ensured the front posts were solidly fixed. This meticulous installation resulted in a sleek, weatherproof space that enhances outdoor living, no matter the weather.
Not only does this pergola add significant value to the property, but it also stayed well within budget—proving that high-quality shade solutions don’t have to break the bank. Whether it’s rain or shine, this new pergola ensures effortless outdoor entertaining all year round.
