The website of an aluminium pergola and conservatory manufacturer on Joomla 6: 40 product pages, galleries of finished projects and of the factory, and enquiries tracked all the way into advertising.

The manufacturer of aluminium pergolas, conservatories, terrace glazing and shading makes its own profiles — from extrusion to the powder coating line — and builds everything to measure. We built the website on Joomla to show the full range, the in-house production and hundreds of finished projects, and so that every enquiry arrives with dimensions and ideally a photo of the terrace.

Details that make a difference
The whole range at a glance, old addresses still work
Pergolas, conservatories, terrace and balcony glazing, shading and hot tub enclosures — 40 product pages with the LIGHT, ROBUST and MASSIVE model ranges. The drop-down menu shows every category with a photo. Addresses from the previous version of the website, including all size variants of the products, are redirected to the new pages by over 50 rules, so links from search engines don't lead nowhere.
In-house production on show
The Our production page shows a gallery straight from the factory floor, and product pages have technical drawings of the profiles with dimensions and wall thickness. The customer can see they are not buying an import but a pergola made from the company's own profiles.
Galleries the company manages itself
Projects, production and technical documentation are in Semapix — nine galleries with over 200 photos. New photos are uploaded at once, thumbnails and enlargements are created automatically, without touching any code.
Enquiries with a photo of the terrace
The form asks for the product, approximate dimensions and preferred timing, and offers to upload a photo of the terrace. Those who want can tick a personal meeting with samples of profiles and glass on site. The company can send a price without unnecessary back-and-forth.
Enquiries tracked server-side
Sema Track sends every submitted enquiry to Google Analytics 4, Google Ads and Sklik straight from the server, according to the consent from the cookie bar. The forms are protected by Cloudflare Turnstile, which usually lets a human through without typing characters.
Search engines, AI and social media
Every page has its own title and meta description, structured data for the company, the page and breadcrumbs. A link shared on Facebook shows a product photo, and canonical addresses are free of ad parameters. The sitemap from SemaSitemap covers all product pages and the llms.txt file describes the company's range to language models.

Looked after after launch too
A website doesn't end at launch. With our Website management and monitoring service we monitor website availability, versions of Joomla, extensions and PHP, security alerts and backup status. We know about a problem before your customers do, and once a month you get a report. For websites we built, the Monitoring plan is free.
