Claim 12:
13. A louvered pergola comprising:
a) a plurality of horizontally spaced apart posts;
b) an elevated frame supported by the posts and defining a central frame opening extending along a frame axis;
c) a plurality of louvers supported by the frame and extended parallel with each other across the frame opening perpendicular to the frame axis, the plurality of louvers including a static first louver fixed to the frame, a static second louver fixed to the frame opposite the static first louver, and a plurality of pivotable louvers pivotably supported by the frame between the static first and second louvers, the pivotable louvers pivotable relative to the static first and second louvers between a closed position in which each pair of adjacent louvers of the plurality of louvers interlock to close the frame opening including (i) the static first louver and an adjacent first pivotable louver of the plurality of pivotable louvers interlocking with each other and (ii) the static second louver and an adjacent second pivotable louver of the plurality of pivotable louvers interlocking with each other, and an open position in which a gap is provided between each pair of adjacent louvers of the plurality of louvers including between (i) the static first louver and the adjacent first pivotable louver and (ii) the static second louver and the adjacent second pivotable louver, and wherein at least one of the first louver and the second louver is selectively retractable and extendable along the frame axis for adjusting are axial extent of the at least one of the first louver and the second louver.
