Create bigger, cleaner spans with fewer posts and a sleeker roofline. The StruXure Pivot 6 Max is an extra wide louvered pergola—up to 16-foot pergola louver—so your wide pergola feels open, usable, and stunning. It’s the same Pergola X DNA people love (motorized rotation, smart controls, integrated drainage), engineered for wider bays and larger footprints.

Pergola with 16 ft louvers

What Counts as a “Wide Span” Pergola?

Wide Span” describes pergolas designed with longer single-piece louvers that reduce the number of beams and posts interrupting your space. With louvers up to 16 ft long, Pivot 6 Max motorized louvered pergola covers more area per bay—great for dining layouts, sectionals, and unobstructed views.

Why Pivot 6 Max for Wide-Span Designs

  • Longest louver option (up to 16′) for broader, uninterrupted bays and cleaner sightlines.
  • Engineered strength for large spans — dealers cite up to ~65 psf in the open position and ~30 psf closed over a 16-ft span (project-specific engineering applies).
  • Same Pergola X comforts at scale — motorized louvers with a 170° rotation range and integrated 360° gutter water management.
  • Smart control ecosystem — Somfy® motors, app control, voice, and automation options.

Design Options That Scale With You

  • Frames, posts & profiles to suit residential or commercial aesthetics
  • Colors & woodgrains — six standards plus thousands of customs
  • Lighting, heaters, and fans, for true four-season comfort
  • Smart controls — app, sensors (rain/wind), and voice integrations

All of the above are supported across the Pergola X line and available on Pivot 6 Max builds.

Pivot 6 vs Pivot 6 Max vs Pivot 6 XL (Quick Compare)

  • Pivot 6 – The popular residential workhorse with motorized 170° rotation and integrated drainage. Great for typical patios.
  • Pivot 6 Max – long span pergola builds with 16′ louvers to reduce posts and beams; dealer-reported design pressures up to ~65 psf open / ~30 psf closed at 16′ (verify per project).
  • Pivot 6 XL – Engineered for larger commercial spans and handles ~3× more rainwater than Pivot 6; choose XL when drainage throughput and span targets exceed typical residential needs.

Where the Pivot 6 Max Shines

  • Restaurants & hospitality — fewer posts improve traffic flow and table layouts
  • Rooftops & lounges — wide bays maximize usable square footage
  • Large patios & pools — clean sightlines over sectionals, fire features, and kitchens

If you’re designing for very large surfaces or unusually heavy rain events, consider Pivot 6 XL for its elevated drainage capacity.
