Flexible shapes & sizes
Made for your space.
The Gola Classic™ pergola’s key advantage is its unparalleled design flexibility, allowing you to create a customised solution that perfectly complements your home’s existing architecture and your outdoor space’s unique requirements.
Intelligent engineering allows for wider spans with fewer posts, creating expansive, open-air spaces with fantastic indoor-outdoor flow and completely uninterrupted views.
Multiple roof designs
Shade that fits.
Arched
Our classic arched shape is where it all began. The super strong, traditional Gola Classic™ look suits most house styles, enhancing the front porch or the back deck.
Cantilevered
To increase the depth of shade needed in sunny spots, our cantilevered Gola Classic™ roofline has an additional overhang, which can be included with either the straight or classic arch shape.
Straight
For a contemporary look to suit modern homes, without compromising on quality, our Gola Classic™ straight roof line provides a stylish flat design finish.
Bull-nose
A fusion between style and functionality, our bull-nose Gola Classic™ roof line is straight with a slight arch at the end.

Our design criteria meet New Zealand building codes and are certified by an independent structural engineer. Unique fittings maximise strength while maintaining an attractive finish.
Fixing options
We use multiple fixing points for superior stability, including soffit fixing (under the eaves) and face fixing (to the building’s facade), ensuring a secure and flawless integration with your home.
Coastal protection
For properties in corrosive sea-spray zones, we offer a hot dip galvanised fittings for ultimate protection and peace of mind.
Colour
We use the Dulux powder coat range for its big selection, proven durability and excellent long term colour retention.
Whilst it’s quite common to match your framing to the joinery or cladding of your home, whatever you have in mind – if you can imagine it, we can match it.
When your local installer comes over to quote, they’ll show you our extensive colour brochure so you can pick the right shade for your Archgola® while you’re outside in the natural light.
