Pergola specification coverage index

A transparent view of what our curated pergola dataset documents, where evidence is missing and how to check each manufacturer's original claims. Built from variant-level research, not hands-on product tests.

Coverage in our reviewed catalog

Scope: intentionally indexable variants with a recorded primary source, not every pergola on the market. The figures count variants, not independently tested structures.

16

Reviewed, source-linked product variants across 4 brands and 10 model families.

16 / 16

Variants with a recorded manufacturer-published wind figure and the conditions attached to that claim.

9 / 16

Variants with a recorded manufacturer-published snow-load figure and stated conditions.

Exact-variant price observations with a recorded price source and verification date: 16 / 16. All other prices are starting prices, unverified or lack the documentation needed for this count. They are not treated as zero.

Latest saved technical verification date among included records: 2026-09-09. Seller prices have their own observation dates in the downloadable CSV. Figures update when our underlying reviewed catalog is updated—not on a timer.

Documentation coverage by brand

Alphabetical, not a ranking of quality or safety. More documented records in this selected dataset do not establish that one manufacturer's products are stronger or better than another's.

Download the CSV to inspect each exact variant, its recorded source URL, weather-condition notes, dates and missing fields. A family-wide claim is not automatically copied to every sibling size.

What this index measures

Coverage in our own researched catalog. A documented wind or snow claim is counted only when both its published numeric figure and recorded conditions are present. The counts do not measure construction quality or establish comparative structural safety.

What it cannot tell you

It is not a census of US pergola sales, a market-share estimate, independent laboratory testing or approval for any local building code. Different manufacturers may use non-equivalent test methods, sizes and installation conditions.

Using or citing the data

Researchers and publishers can cite the index and link to exact manufacturer pages listed in the CSV. Describe it as our curated product sample and preserve each observation date. Confirm specifications and local engineering before purchasing.
