Breslow Design & Build — Luxury Outdoor Shade Solutions Since 1924

What is a motorized pergola?

A motorized pergola is a pergola whose roof can be opened and closed at the touch of a button. The Azenco R-Blade™ features motorized aluminum louvers that rotate 0°–160°, giving you full control over sunlight, shade, and rain protection from your phone or remote.

How much does a Breslow system cost?

Residential systems typically range from $50,000 to $150,000+ depending on size, complexity, and features. Commercial projects are scoped individually. We provide accurate, detailed estimates during your free consultation. Financing options are available.

What is Azek wrapping?

Azek wrapping is custom-milled PVC trim applied to every column, beam, fascia, and crown moulding — matched precisely to your home's existing architecture. The result is a pergola that looks like it was designed with your home from day one, not added on afterward.

How long does it take to install a motorized pergola?

Residential projects typically take 2–4 days on-site. The full process — design, permitting, fabrication, and installation — is typically 8–12 weeks from signed contract. Our team handles everything including PE-stamped engineering.

Do motorized pergolas require maintenance?

Azenco R-Blade™ systems are built from 6063-T6 aerospace-grade aluminum with a powder-coat finish — they require very minimal maintenance. We recommend an annual inspection of the motor and louver seals. Breslow offers a lifetime service program for all installed systems.

What areas do you service?

We're based in North Jersey and serve NJ, CT, NY, PA, MD, DE, RI, MA, and Florida — 9 states in total. By appointment only — call or book online to schedule a consultation.

Can I add heating and screens to a motorized pergola?

Absolutely. Breslow integrates infrared heating panels, motorized zip-track screens (R-Shade™), LED lighting, and outdoor audio into every R-Blade™ system. These are engineered in from the start — not added as afterthoughts.

Is a motorized pergola worth the investment?

For homeowners who use their outdoor space regularly, an Azenco R-Blade™ system transforms a seasonal patio into a year-round living room. The combination of rain protection, heat, and lighting means the space is usable 10–11 months a year in the Northeast.
