WEATHERSHIELD BY RICK'S PERGOLA INSTALLATION IN OREGON & WASHINGTON
Rick’s Custom Fencing & Decking installs WeatherShield pergolas for homeowners across Oregon & Washington. WeatherShield systems are often chosen when the goal is to create more shade and weather protection than a traditional pergola while still maintaining an open outdoor feel.
Unlike standard pergolas that use spaced beams, WeatherShield adds overhead coverage that reduces direct sunlight and improves protection from changing weather. At the same time, the structure maintains the look and feel of a pergola rather than a fully enclosed patio cover.
For many homeowners, this creates a middle-ground option between a traditional pergola and a fully covered patio structure.
WeatherShield pergolas can be installed over patios, decks, and outdoor seating areas to create a more usable and defined outdoor space.

What Makes WeatherShield Pergolas Different
When comparing pergola options, the level of coverage is often the deciding factor. WeatherShield systems are designed for homeowners who want more protection than a traditional pergola without moving to a fully covered structure.
More Coverage Than a Standard Pergola
WeatherShield provides increased overhead coverage, helping reduce direct sun exposure compared to open-beam designs.
Maintains an Open Pergola Feel
Even with added coverage, the structure retains the architectural look of a pergola rather than feeling enclosed like a patio cover.
Improves Outdoor Comfort
Additional shade and protection make it easier to use patios and decks during hotter or wetter conditions.
Works Across Different Outdoor Spaces
WeatherShield pergolas can be installed over both ground-level patios and elevated decks depending on how the space is used.
WeatherShield By Rick's Pergola Design Considerations
Several factors influence how a WeatherShield pergola fits into an outdoor space:
Attached and Freestanding Layouts
Some structures extend from the home, while others are installed as standalone features within the yard.
Size and Layout
The size of the pergola is typically based on the patio or deck area, with structural posts and layout shaping the overall design.
Balance of Shade and Openness
WeatherShield systems are designed to increase shade while still allowing the space to feel open.
Planning a Covered Pergola Installation
Planning a WeatherShield pergola begins with reviewing the patio or deck layout and identifying where additional shade or weather protection would improve the outdoor living space. Rick’s works with homeowners to review:
- The size of the patio or deck area
- Desired level of coverage
- Post placement and structural support
- How the structure connects to the home and surrounding landscape
