Aluminum arbors are popular outdoor structures made from lightweight, durable aluminum. They serve both decorative and functional purposes in landscaping and outdoor design. Here are the main uses and benefits of aluminum arbors:
Garden Entrances
Create a beautiful, inviting entryway to gardens or backyard spaces.
Can be paired with climbing plants like roses, ivy, or wisteria.
Pathway Accents
Installed over walkways to add structure and charm to a landscape design.
Outdoor Shade or Seating Areas
Provide partial shade for benches, patios, or small seating nooks.
Wedding or Event Backdrops
Serve as elegant, reusable arches for ceremonies or photo spots.
Transition Structures
Mark transitions between different outdoor zones (e.g., from yard to garden).
Support for Climbing Plants
Offer strong, rust-free support for vines and flowers without rotting or warping.

Everybody loves the idea of sprucing up their backyards. One of the best ways to make your backyard look beautiful is to add a pergola or arbor. Here are some of the benefits pergolas can bring to your home.
Green up your garden
A pergola is a structure supported by columns on the side, with lattices or beams along the top linking the columns. It’s a structure that allows climbing plants to intertwine themselves along it, as well as suspending hanging plants. By adding a pergola and choosing some beautiful plants to go along with it, you’ll be greening up your garden and adding the type of beauty that only plant life can provide.
Protection from the weather
If you’re avoiding your backyard because of a lack of shade protection from the harshnes of a Texas summer, then a pergola is the perfect answer. Once the climbing plants have covered the pergola, you’ll find that the shade provided will protect you from the sun’s rays. The fact that the pergola is not completely closed off like a normal roof means it’ll still have that outdoor feel without roasting in the sun.
Block out unsightly views
Sometimes beautiful backyards can be ruined by an ugly structure destroying the view for you and the people who visit your house. Whether it’s an ugly shed at the next door neighbor's house or a dying tree, a pergola can be strategically placed to block out unsightly views and focus the attention on the views that contribute to a sense of beauty in your backyard.
Combine with other structures
One of the best ways to get the most value and use out of a pergola is to use it as connection to other structures, such as gazebos or outdoor BBQ areas. Imagine someone entering your yard and discovering a leafy path marked by a pergola which results in a large, inviting outdoor entertainment area. Or perhaps the pergola could lead from your back door towards a solitary gazebo to create an attractive outdoor living area. Whatever the choice, a pergola doesn’t have to exist on its own; sometimes it works best in conjunction with other structures.
Add value to your home
Finally, adding a pergola will add extra value to your home. Outdoor entertainment areas have proved to add significant value to your home and make it a more attractive prospect when it comes time to sell.
