  5. A Boon for Both Residential and Commercial Clients: The benefits of freestanding aluminum pergolas extend beyond residential applications. Restaurants can enhance their outdoor seating areas with pergolas, creating a more inviting atmosphere for diners. Hotels can offer guests a luxurious poolside retreat with shaded cabanas. Country clubs and parks can utilize these structures to create designated areas for gatherings and social events. The possibilities are truly endless.
