Cerberus Louvre System Series: The Kitset Pergola with Integrated Gutters
When it comes to kitset louvre systems, functionality and visual appeal often come with compromises—especially around water management and structural integrity. That’s where the Cerberus Louvre System Series from Apollo NZ sets itself apart.
Designed with integrated gutters and structural beams, the Cerberus range is one of the very few kitset systems to offer a fully concealed drainage solution—typically only found in high-end custom-built pergolas. At a competitive price point, the Cerberus Series redefines what’s possible with ready-to-assemble louvre systems.
Why Integrated Gutters and Beams Matter
Most kitset pergolas on the market use basic beams with clip-on gutters that need to be manually connected and sealed during installation. This not only adds complexity and time to the install process, but often results in visible seams and a less polished finish. Over time, these external components may shift, leak, or require maintenance—especially in areas with heavy rainfall.
The Cerberus Louvre Series offers a smarter solution with:
Built-in Gutters: These hidden gutters efficiently direct rainwater through a concealed drainage system within the posts. No external pipes, no awkward fittings—just smart design.
Architectural Structural Beams: Each unit includes heavy-duty beams designed to support the structure while maintaining a minimalistic profile. There are no unsightly brackets or bolt-on extras to interrupt the clean lines.
Premium Design Without the Premium Price
Integrated water management is rare in most kitset systems, especially at this price point. In fact, these features are usually reserved for expensive custom installations. The Cerberus Louvre System Series changes that—offering fully integrated guttering and structural framing in a modular kitset design.
It’s ideal for:
Homeowners looking for a high-spec outdoor solution without the high-end cost
Builders and installers wanting a clean, professional result with fewer visible parts
Developers needing durable, attractive outdoor structures that add value
Engineered for Style, Performance, and Simplicity
Every model in the Cerberus range is designed for strength, efficiency, and seamless operation. Whether you choose a manual version or go for a motorised model with surround lights and rain sensors, you’re getting a reliable, stylish structure that performs year-round.
Key features across the Cerberus range include:
Aluminium Frame Construction with corrosion resistance
Motorised or Manual Louvre Options
Optional RGB Surround Lighting
Wind Resistance Ratings Suitable for NZ Conditions
Upgradable with Sliding Glass Doors, Rain Sensors, and More

Why Other Kitsets Fall Short
Most kitset pergolas are designed to hit a price point. As a result, they often come with compromises—like exposed downpipes, bolt-on gutters, or basic frames with no integrated drainage. These systems not only look less refined but also take longer to install and may require extra sealing and ongoing maintenance.
By contrast, the Cerberus Louvre System Series is built from the ground up as a complete, integrated package. The result? Faster installation, better performance, and a modern, architectural look that holds its value.
Cerberus Louvre Systems: Redefining Kitset Pergolas
Apollo NZ has developed the Cerberus range for those who want more than the basics. With built-in features typically found in premium systems—like concealed gutters, clean lines, and modular upgrades—the Cerberus Louvre Series delivers unbeatable value.
If you're looking for a kitset louvre system with integrated gutters and structural beams, the Cerberus Series is in a class of its own.
