The device described in this manual is a 12 x 12 Flat Top Louvered Pergola, model Camelot, manufactured by New England Arbors. It is designed as an outdoor structure to provide shade and aesthetic appeal, featuring adjustable louvered panels on the roof.
The Camelot Pergola serves as a freestanding outdoor structure, offering a shaded area for relaxation or entertainment. Its primary function is to provide adjustable shade through its louvered roof system, allowing users to control the amount of sunlight filtering through. The louvered design enables the user to open or close the panels, adapting to varying weather conditions or personal preferences. It is designed to be installed either in-ground with pressure-treated wood posts embedded in concrete or mounted on an existing concrete or wood surface using bolt-down brackets. The structure is intended for static use and is not designed to support additional weight loads such as swings, people, or other objects.
