Undercover Industries stands out in the market, offering unparalleled quality and innovative designs in our aluminium pergolas.

Superior Material Quality
Undercover Industries prioritizes quality above all, utilizing 6061 T6 structural grade Aluminium for our pergolas.

Our pergolas are equipped with Laserlite roofing, offering 99.9% UV protection. This feature is crucial for maintaining a comfortable outdoor environment, keeping harmful rays out while allowing natural light to brighten your space.

Exceptional Durability and Finish
Each pergola is powder-coated with Dulux Powders and undergoes a chromate solution pre-treatment through full submersion, ensuring a long-lasting and flawless finish. The full TIG welded components, as opposed to bolted or sleeved alternatives, and pre-assembly in-house affirm our commitment to durability and strength.

Undercover Aluminium Pergolas feature clean, minimalistic lines that enhance structural integrity without compromising on style. The unique attachment methods and the ‘Hidden Foot’ system for mounting ensure a sleek look with minimal visible brackets or base plates, perfectly complementing your home’s aesthetic.

Top Quality and Durable – No Rust
What sets Undercover Pergola systems apart is our unwavering dedication to quality. Unlike the offerings of many competitors, our pergolas are constructed using top-grade structural aluminium. This choice of material is not arbitrary. Designed to withstand high wind zones and coastal conditions, our pergolas assure longevity and resilience. When investing in your home, the largest asset for many, settling for anything less than the best is not an option. Undercover Industries understands this, ensuring our pergolas are built to endure the test of time and elements.
99.9% UV Protection
In the relentless battle against the sun’s harmful UV rays, Undercover Industries takes no half-measures. Our company exclusively employs top-grade Alysnite roofing materials, offering 99.9% UV protection. This commitment to quality is evident in our avoidance of cheap twinwall materials, which are prone to mould and rapid aging. Protecting your space from UV rays isn’t just about comfort; it’s about health and maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your property.
Shelter from the Rain and Hail
Understanding the unpredictability of coastal weather, our Undercover Pergolas are designed to offer robust shelter from rain and hail. Each pergola is equipped with custom aluminium gutters and flashings, enhancing the canopy’s watertight capabilities. Additionally, the option to integrate Undercover Ziptrak Outdoor Blinds provides an extra layer of protection, offering flexibility to adapt to changing weather conditions.
Made Locally, by Locals, for Local Conditions
Proudly situated in Mount Maunganui, Undercover Industries is more than just a business; it’s a local institution. Our pergola systems, shade sails, and awnings are not just manufactured locally but are born from the ingenuity and dedication of our team of local fabrication engineers. This local production ensures a deep understanding of the unique coastal conditions of the Bay of Plenty, a stark contrast to competitors who rely on inferior imported alternatives.
Uncompromising Quality and Craftsmanship
The meticulous attention to detail in our manufacturing process sets Undercover Aluminium Pergolas in a league of their own. Consider the use of 6061 T6 structural grade Aluminium – a material chosen for its ultimate tensile strength, commonly used in aircraft structures. This level of robustness is vital for structures exposed to coastal elements.
In addition to the structural integrity, our pergolas feature Laserlite roofing, providing optimal UV protection while maintaining the light within your home, without the heat and glare. Our powder-coating process utilizes only Dulux Powders, preceded by a chromate solution treatment via full submersion, ensuring a finish that is both beautiful and enduring.
Moreover, each of our pergolas is a testament to superior craftsmanship, with full TIG welded components and pre-assembly in-house. This approach guarantees ultimate strength and durability, eschewing the less reliable methods of bolting or sleeving and cutting onsite.
In summary, Undercover Industries’ pergola systems are not just an addition to your beach house; they are a long-term investment in quality, comfort, and style. Designed and built to withstand the unique challenges of coastal living, our pergolas promise to be a centrepiece of your outdoor living experience, blending seamlessly with the stunning beachside landscape of the Bay of Plenty.

Unwavering Quality and Durability
At the core of Undercover Industries’ confidence is our use of the highest quality materials. Each pergola component is fully TIG welded, a process known for its strength and durability. The structural grade aluminium used, notably the 6061 T6 grade, is renowned for its ultimate tensile strength, often being the material of choice in aircraft structures. This high-grade aluminium ensures that the pergolas are resilient, enduring, and, crucially, rust-free – a vital factor in coastal and high wind zone areas.
Customized and Innovative Design
Each Undercover Pergola is a product of meticulous design and manufacturing. Leveraging advanced CAD software, the team designs these structures in-house, ensuring that each pergola is tailor-made to complement the individual style of your home while standing up to the specific environmental challenges it may face. This direct-from-manufacturer approach eliminates the need for intermediaries, ensuring quality control and cost-effectiveness.
Protection and Aesthetics Combined
Understanding the harshness of the New Zealand sun, Undercover Industries equips its pergolas with Laserlite roofing, providing 99.9% UV protection. This roofing material not only protects from harmful rays but also offers comfort cool technology, keeping the light in and the heat and glare out. The pergolas are also pre-treated with a chromate solution and powder-coated with a selection of colours from the Dulux range, ensuring both aesthetic appeal and additional protection against the elements.
Innovative Attachment and Assurance
Our company’s unique “Hidden” Attachment Methods further sets our pergolas apart, adding to the sleek design and robust construction. This innovative approach to installation ensures that the pergolas not only look great but are also secure and long-lasting.

Ziptrak® outdoor blinds, renowned for their easy and smooth operation, are a staple in enhancing your outdoor living spaces. Undercover Industries, a trusted supplier and installer in Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty, emphasizes the importance of correct usage to maintain their pristine condition.
• Manual Operation: To maintain the life and function of your hand-operated Ziptrak® blinds, always use the centre handle. This ensures the fabric winds uniformly, preventing uneven wear or damage.
• Motorised Use: When operating motorized blinds, remain present to oversee the movement. Cease operation during high winds to protect the mechanism.
• Weather Considerations: In winds over 30km/h, either fully retract or lower your blinds. Extreme weather calls for complete retraction to safeguard the system.
• Handling Wind Pressure: If wind is creating resistance, gently push the blind fabric to alleviate pressure before operating.
• Moisture Management: Avoid rolling the blinds up when damp. Trapped moisture can lead to mould. Always allow them to dry thoroughly.
• Operational Issues: Should you face any difficulty in operating the blinds without an apparent cause, contact Undercover Industries for support.
Cleaning: A Key Aspect of Care
Maintaining the cleanliness of your Sunscreen mesh or PVC Ziptrak blinds is crucial. Regular, gentle cleaning not only preserves their appearance but also their functionality.
• Basic Cleaning: Use a soft cloth with soapy cold water. Ensure they are dry before retraction.
• PVC Maintenance: Treat PVC material with extra care to avoid scratches. VuPlex® is recommended for PVC blinds, following specific manufacturer guidelines.
• Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Never use strong detergents, insecticides, or solvents on your blinds. Bore water and high-pressure hoses are also a no-go.
• Prevent Stains: Address bird droppings and other stains promptly to avoid permanent damage.
Ensuring Smooth Operation
While Ziptrak® blinds are designed for low maintenance, certain environments might require additional care.
• Lubrication: In dusty areas, apply a food-grade silicone spray like Helmar H4000. Spray the tracks lightly while the blind is fully extended. Avoid oil-based lubricants as they can damage the system.
Spare Parts and Repairs
Longevity and Repairs: These blinds are built to last. However, should you encounter any issues or require spare parts, contact Undercover Industries or your retailer for assistance.
Maintaining Level Operation
• Avoiding Imbalance: Always operate the blinds from the centre. Uneven operation over time can lead to an unbalanced bottom bar. Should this occur, it’s not a product fault but a result of improper use. Undercover Industries is here to help rectify such issues.
Undercover Industries is dedicated to ensuring your Ziptrak® blinds remain a seamless, functional, and attractive part of your home. For any maintenance queries or services in Tauranga and the Bay of Plenty, feel free to reach out to us.
