LUCY aluminum pergola illustrating the JY model series selection guide

Five pergola model references

LUCY JY160-JY280 Pergola Model Series

The LUCY JY series groups four rotating-louver references—JY160, JY180, JY220 and JY250—and one retractable folding-roof reference, JY280. Start with roof movement and catalogue single-module size, then confirm the final model, post layout, foundations, exposure, drainage and accessories against LUCY technical documents and the actual site.

Model selection for real projects

Choose roof movement before choosing a model code.

JY160–JY280 are starting references, not substitutes for project review. First decide whether the roof should rotate manually, rotate by motor or retract for a wider open-sky condition, then compare project scale and interfaces.

Manual route

Begin with JY160 when compact scale and manual louver adjustment suit the use.

Motorized louver route

Compare JY180, JY220 and JY250 by application, module strategy and project scale.

Retractable route

Review JY280 when folding roof movement and a wider open-sky mode are priorities.

Final confirmation

Requires layout, support grid, exposure, drainage, controls, accessories and local criteria.

Page summary

The LUCY JY series groups four rotating-louver references—JY160, JY180, JY220 and JY250—and one retractable folding-roof reference, JY280. Start with roof movement and catalogue single-module size, then confirm the final model, post layout, foundations, exposure, drainage and accessories against LUCY technical documents and the actual site.

Best for

  • Buyers comparing roof movement before quotation
  • Residential and commercial project teams selecting an initial model
  • Dealers mapping models to repeat customer needs
  • Architects and contractors planning single- or multi-module layouts

Technical specifications

Detailed structural dimensions and performance data are confirmed against the approved project specification.

Rotating louver systems

JY160, JY180, JY220 and JY250 keep aluminum louvers across the roof opening and rotate them to adjust shade, ventilation and rain direction. JY160 is positioned as the compact manual reference. JY180, JY220 and JY250 progress from residential motorized use toward heavier and larger-span project requirements.

A higher model number is not automatically the right answer. The useful choice depends on the required clear span, acceptable post positions, roof direction, side systems and verified structural basis for the destination.

Compatible accessories

  • Manual or motorized rotating louvers
  • Motorized retractable folding roof
  • Single-module or connected multi-module planning
  • LED, ZIP screen and selected glass coordination
  • Project finish and control discussion

Compatibility depends on the selected model, finished opening and approved elevation. Review all pergola accessories, ZIP screens and sliding or folding glass.

Retractable roof system

JY280 uses folding roof blades that retract rather than only rotating in place. It is the starting reference when a project prioritizes a larger open-sky condition for a villa terrace, restaurant courtyard or hospitality lounge.

The stacking direction, motor, drainage, safe operating position and actual frame sizes must be confirmed for the selected LUCY configuration. A retractable roof should not be treated as structurally interchangeable with a rotating-louver model.

Common questions

What is the difference between JY160 and JY180?+

JY160 is positioned as a compact manual rotating-louver reference, while JY180 is a motorized residential reference. Their listed profile and module values still require LUCY confirmation.

Does the catalogue module equal the total project size?+

No. It refers to one structural bay. A larger project may use connected modules after post, drainage, exposure and foundation review.

Which models use rotating louvers?+

JY160, JY180, JY220 and JY250 are rotating-louver references.

Which model has a retractable roof?+

JY280 is the folding retractable-roof reference and creates a wider open-sky condition.

Can I select a model only from width and length?+

No. Final selection also depends on post layout, support conditions, exposure, drainage, accessories, installation and local requirements.
