Vergola® Colorbond® Louvres
The Vergola® louvre is manufactured in Australia from Colorbond® steel and formed into Vergola®’s distinctive double-skin aerofoil profile.
Vergola offers eight standard colours for the Vergola® Colorbond® steel opening louvre roof system.

Unique Double-skin Construction
The double-skin construction creates an insulating air gap within the louvre. Vergola® describes this as helping keep outdoor areas cooler in summer and warmer in winter than a single-skin louvre system.
Why Colorbond®?
Colorbond® is more than simply painted steel. Its multi-layer construction provides both protection and the finished colour surface.
The construction includes:
-
a ZINCALUME® coated steel base;
-
a conversion layer that assists coating adhesion and protection;
-
a durable protective coating system; and
-
exterior-grade paint baked onto the surface.
The ZINCALUME® base provides corrosion protection, while the baked-on Colorbond® finish provides additional protection against weather and UV exposure.
What Frame Materials Can Be Used for a Vergola®?
Timber
Steel
Mansonry
Aluminium
Vergola® frames can be timber, steel, aluminium or any other structure that complies with local building codes. Customised in various sizes and architectural styles, our frames can be constructed out of timber, steel, masonry and aluminium.
Does Vergola Brisbane provide other Louvre Material and Colour Options?
Powder-Coated Aluminium Louvres
Vergola Brisbane can supply full extruded aluminium louvres with a powder-coated finish.
The Dulux Powder Coat Series provides a much wider choice of colours and finishes, including solid, textured, metallic and pearlescent options.
This can be particularly useful where an architect, builder or homeowner wants a specific colour or finish outside the standard Vergola® Colorbond® range.
Vergola Brisbane works with many leading Brisbane builders, construction companies and architects, and powder-coated options are sometimes specified by architects as part of the overall building design.
ZINCALUME® Louvres
Vergola Brisbane can also supply roll-formed ZINCALUME® steel louvres.
ZINCALUME® has a natural metallic silver finish rather than the painted finish of Colorbond®.
The louvres are roll-formed using the same fabrication method as the Colorbond® version. This is different from the powder-coated aluminium option, which uses extruded aluminium.
ZINCALUME® is especially appropriate for older Queensland homes, where the goal is to match or enhance existing corrugated iron or metal roofs.
How Do I Choose the Right Vergola Colour and Finish?
There are three options:
-
Vergola® Colorbond® steel – the standard double-skin louvre available in eight colours.
-
ZINCALUME® steel – a natural metallic finish.
-
Powder-coated aluminium – offering a much wider selection of colours and architectural finishes.
Because colours can appear differently on computer and phone screens, we recommend reviewing current physical colour samples before making your final selection.
How Can I See My Vergola Design Before It’s Built?
Vergola Brisbane offers a 3-D Visualisation Service so you can see how your proposed design and colour selection will look before construction begins.
The service provides a detailed 3D representation of your project, helping you review the design, proportions and overall appearance before work starts.
Plus, the fees for this service are refundable if you proceed with your design.
Price: $500 + GST
