GARDEN FIXED-ZONE SHADE
Start with the dining or gathering footprint, then plan support positions, drainage and the paths that must remain open around planting.
Bring the garden footprint, surface levels, planting plan and the desired covered and open-air use.
PLAN THE GARDEN ROOM FIRST
The system follows the footprint, support layout, drainage route and the way people move through the garden.
Set the dining or gathering footprint first, including the paths people use around it.
Place posts and anchors around circulation, planting, surface levels and future maintenance access.
Plan roof drainage and ground falls as part of the structure, not as a later addition.
Decide when the zone should be protected and when it should open back to light and sky.
SYSTEM DIRECTIONS
Retractable roof systems and pergolas suit a dedicated garden room; screens can support an exposed side.
STRUCTURED GARDEN ROOM
For a permanent garden zone where supports and the opening roof are part of the landscape plan.
RETRACTABLE GARDEN COVER
For a defined garden use zone that needs overhead cover on demand while retaining open-air use.
EXPOSED GARDEN EDGE
For a compatible side of the garden room where low sun, wind or privacy needs added control.
APPLICATION PLANNING
01 / GARDEN TABLE
Let the dining or lounge footprint set the cover, then preserve the routes around it.
02 / OPEN-SKY ROOM
A movable roof direction works best when the outdoor room’s supports, drainage and operation are planned together.
03 / EXPOSED SIDE
Add a screen direction at the open side where glare, breeze or overlooking affects the zone.
Use these zone patterns to brief your opening; final size, fixing and configuration follow the selected product.
PROJECT SUPPORT
A project review can narrow the roof and support strategy before final configuration is set.

Answers for footprint, post layout and open-air use.
Start with the intended footprint, post positions, surface levels, drainage route, planting clearance and the paths that need to stay open.
A retractable or operable roof direction can support both covered and open-air use, subject to the selected system and site conditions.
Share a simple footprint, photos, ground levels if known, planting plan, intended use and the direction of drainage.
