Glass Roof Pergolas

Innovative glass-roof pergolas with the structure of Misteral bioclimatic pergolas

The Misteral glass roof pergola is a contemporary architectural solution that combines elegance, durability, and natural light.
Its construction is identical to that of Misteral bioclimatic pergolas, maintaining the same technically refined aluminium system, exceptional structural stability, and modular compatibility with other Misteral pergolas – including bioclimatic and fabric-covered modules.

This allows the creation of unified, architecturally harmonious outdoor spaces where functionality and aesthetics seamlessly merge.

Refined Aluminium Structure – Aesthetics Without Compromise

The frame of the Misteral glass roof pergola is made from high-quality, powder-coated aluminium, ensuring outstanding corrosion resistance and long-term stability.
Every component is precision-engineered, just like in the bioclimatic range, giving the pergola a consistent visual identity and the technical excellence that defines the entire Misteral line.

Glass Roof – Strong, Safe, and Bright

The roof is made of tempered safety glass that lets in maximum natural light while providing full protection against the elements.
We use 10 mm tempered glass or 8+8 mm laminated safety glass, both offering excellent impact resistance and protection against hail and snow loads.

Advantages of the glass roof:

• High resistance to weather and UV radiation

• Long lifespan with zero maintenance

• Optimal daylight entry for a bright and pleasant atmosphere

• Compatible with Misteral shading systems for light and heat control

The glass roof pergola creates a luminous and open environment that blurs the boundary between indoors and outdoors – ideal for gardens, terraces, restaurants, and hotel spaces.

Enhancements and Functional Add-Ons

For complete comfort and visual harmony, the Misteral pergola can be complemented with a variety of side elements and shading options:

• Sliding glass panels for wind protection while maintaining open views

• Vertical ZIP screen blinds for efficient shading and privacy

• Aluminium brise-soleil systems (B210, B220) for precise light control

• Integrated ambient LED lighting for a cosy evening atmosphere

To prevent overheating during summer, the pergola can be upgraded with an external Misteral fabric shade or horizontal brise-soleil panels, which reduce heat without compromising the structure’s clean design.

Reliability and the Misteral Quality Guarantee

At Misteral, we ensure the highest standards of quality and precision across all our products.
Each pergola structure comes with up to a 25-year warranty, reflecting our confidence in the materials, production process, and long-term functionality.

Every pergola is the result of meticulous engineering and years of experience in custom architectural projects, ensuring perfect integration with both the building and its surroundings.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Does a glass roof cause overheating in summer?
Glass transmits solar energy, so the space can heat up (greenhouse effect) if not properly shaded. At Misteral, we offer solutions for thermal protection:

• Integrated shading: Motorized fabric awnings can be installed above or below the glass.

• Ventilation: If the pergola is enclosed with walls, sliding systems can be added to allow airflow in summer.

• Glass selection: Slightly tinted or reflective glass can be used to reduce heat gain.

 

2. Is a glass roof safe from hail?
Absolutely. We use only safety glass (tempered or laminated-tempered). These glasses are tested for impact resistance and can withstand large hailstones and heavy snow loads. Safety is our top priority.

 

3. How is a glass roof cleaned?
The roof is installed with a minimal slope, allowing water to drain and rinse most dirt automatically during rain. For thorough cleaning (pollen, leaves), the glass is walkable (with appropriate caution and equipment) or can be cleaned using telescopic tools.

 

4. Can a glass roof be combined with louvers?
Yes, this is a specialty of the Misteral system. Because the profiles and posts are the same, we can create a pergola where one module is glass (e.g., above the entrance to let light in) and the adjacent module has louvers (e.g., above a dining area for ventilation). The transition is visually seamless.

 

5. Where does water from the glass drain?
Drainage is completely concealed. The glass slopes toward an integrated gutter in the frame profile. Water then flows through the interior of the posts into the ground (via sand trap or drainage system). The exterior remains dry and aesthetically clean.

 

6. Is the structure resistant to corrosion?
Yes. The structure is entirely made of aluminum with Inox fastening elements, protected by powder coating (25-year guarantee). It does not rust and requires no maintenance beyond occasional cleaning with water.
