Portugal / CADARN louvre systems
Louvre pergolas for Portugal: CADARN kitset and ARKEN architectural systems.
Plan project-supply packages for hotels, guest terraces, architects, villas, padel clubs and resort developments in mainland Portugal, Madeira and the Azores. Explore suitable roof, shade, sport, wellness and outdoor systems, then send your destination and drawings or dimensions for product-specific technical and freight review. CADARN is the modular kitset louvre pathway, with standard-size planning prioritised and limited made-to-measure flexibility where the kitset platform allows.

Portugal system selection · Louvre roof selection
Kitset or architectural louvres? Specify the build first.
CADARN serves compact kitset projects with limited sizing flexibility; ARKEN is the made-to-measure architectural route for more demanding layouts. Select using dimensions, structure and exposure—not a claim that either model is pre-approved in Portugal.
01 · Select the scope
Which pathway matches the project?
What to confirm
Review the nominal 6 × 4 m kitset platform limit, bay/post layout, finish options and actual fixing configuration with the current manufacturer drawings.
02 · Prepare a useful enquiry

These fields travel into Apollo's existing enquiry form. No information is sent until the full enquiry is submitted.
Continue to quotation enquiryProduct specification, conformity documentation, delivery price and lead time are confirmed only for the selected system and project. Local engineering and installation remain separate.
03 · Project interface
Information worth checking before selecting a model.
Structural and wall interfaces
Freestanding, attached or roof-only condition, substrate/footings, permitted post locations and relevant architect/engineer drawings.
Exposure and drainage
Mainland or island project, coastal salt, local design wind, terrace rainfall, gutter/discharge route and any neighbouring building impact.
Controls and enclosure
Manual/motorised intent, electrical route, rain/wind sensor needs, adjacent zip screens or glass and safe maintenance access.
Evidence requested at technical review
- Selected product and configuration drawings
- Manufacturer material and coating information available for the exact model
- Applicable wind/structural performance evidence for independent review
- Operation, maintenance, motor and fixing documentation as relevant
These are request categories, not a claim that every supplier document or certification is already available.

Questions buyers usually need answered early.
What is the difference between CADARN and ARKEN in Portugal?
CADARN is a kitset louvre roof pathway with defined module limits and some configuration flexibility. ARKEN is the architectural made-to-measure pathway. Support geometry, local site loads and exact model documents decide suitability.
Can a Portugal louvre roof be fitted without new posts?
Roof-only or attached arrangements may be reviewed for suitable selected systems, but a supporting structure must be verified by the locally appointed engineer. A post-free layout is never guaranteed from a product category alone.
Is a CADARN roof suitable for a coastal Portuguese terrace?
Coastal corrosion, finish, fasteners, wind actions and site fixing requirements need a product- and location-specific review. Apollo does not claim automatic suitability for all coastal locations or islands.
Can Apollo supply aluminium louvre pergola kitsets to Portugal?
Yes, subject to the selected system, exact destination, quantity, project requirements, freight route and current technical evidence.
Is one aluminium louvre pergola kitsets specification suitable across Portugal?
No. Site exposure, use, local requirements and operating conditions must be reviewed for the actual project before the final configuration is confirmed.
Does Apollo provide local installation?
Apollo is supply-only. Local installation, civil works, electrical work, engineering and approvals remain with the appointed local project team unless expressly included in writing.
What should the first project brief include?
Start with the Portugal site, intended use, dimensions or drawings, quantities, project stage, technical evidence requirements, timing and receiving / unloading plan.
