A custom pergola order should move through a controlled sequence: enquiry, project brief, model and accessory review, quotation, verified dimensions, approved drawings and finishes, production, quality release, packing, shipment, installation and handover. The order should not enter production while dimensions, interfaces or responsibility boundaries remain unresolved.

How are pergola dimensions confirmed?
Preliminary dimensions support pricing. Verified dimensions and approved drawings control production. Record who is responsible for final site measurement.
How are accessories selected?
Confirm opening schedules, mounting, loads, power, controls, ventilation and safety before drawing approval. Late accessory changes can alter the pergola frame.
How is shipping planned?
Packing marks and shipment sequence should follow the approved module schedule. Confirm consignee, documents, unloading and storage before dispatch.
What affects the quotation?
The accepted quotation should match the drawing and finish schedule. Variations require written scope, price and timing review before production continues.
Buyer process
Keep one current brief, drawing revision and responsibility schedule through every stage.

Common questions
Can LUCY quote from a sketch?+
A sketch can support an initial discussion, but final production requires verified dimensions and approved drawings.
Should accessories be selected later?+
Select intended accessories early because they can affect openings, loads, wiring, drainage and controls.
Does the manufacturer approve local foundations and codes?+
The local project team remains responsible for site conditions, foundations, approvals and qualified final connections unless a written scope states otherwise.
