Design and engineering of a motorized louvered roof for Hook & Reel's Bayshore, NY location — a Long Island South Shore seafood restaurant.
Hook & Reel is a seafood restaurant concept with a location in Bayshore on Long Island's South Shore. The patio is a key part of the dining experience — but the South Shore's outdoor season is short and weather-volatile.
Ownership wanted the patio to operate the way the interior does: open every service, regardless of forecast. A motorized louvered roof was the obvious lever — automated coverage means the staff can keep service running through a passing thunderstorm rather than clearing tables.
Suffolk County commercial code required PE-stamped engineering for the wind and snow loads. Material specifications also needed to account for the coastal proximity and the salt-air environment of the South Shore.
Breslow developed the Hook & Reel design around the Azenco R-Blade™ motorized louvered roof, with material grades specified for Long Island coastal exposure and engineering stamped for the local Suffolk County code requirements.
Aluminum louvers rotate from fully open to fully closed in under 60 seconds, integrated drainage routes water through the structural columns, and motorized control via the Bond smart bridge lets the GM run the system from a tablet behind the bar — louvers, lights, fans, and heaters.
Full turnkey scope: design → PE engineering → Bayshore permitting → coastal-grade Azenco fabrication → installation → lifetime service. Sequenced around restaurant operating hours so peak dinner service was never interrupted.
Every commercial structure Breslow installs ships with PE-stamped engineering calculated for the actual site — not a generic dealer spec sheet. Here is what went into Hook & Reel Bayshore.
Commercial decisions aren't made from a pergola catalog. Every Breslow commercial project begins with a photo-real design rendering so stakeholders — owner, GM, board, architect — see the finished space before a single beam is ordered.

Commercial restaurant louvered roof installations on Long Island's South Shore typically run $125K–$275K depending on patio area, coastal-grade material specifications, structural attachment requirements, perimeter screens, lighting, and finish selections. Every Breslow commercial quote is fixed-price and includes engineering, permits, fabrication, and installation. Request a site walk for an exact estimate.
From signed contract to first service under the new structure, Long Island restaurant installations like Hook & Reel run 12–18 weeks: 3 weeks design + photo-real rendering, 4–6 weeks PE engineering and Suffolk County permitting, 4–6 weeks coastal-grade Azenco fabrication and finishing, and 2–3 weeks on-site installation. We sequence around restaurant operating hours so peak dinner service is never interrupted.
Yes. Breslow Design & Build is the Northeast's premier certified Azenco commercial dealer, serving NJ, NY, CT, PA, MD, DE, RI, MA, and FL. Our field crews operate out of Springfield, NJ. We've delivered commercial projects for restaurant groups, country clubs, rooftop venues, and hospitality properties across the region. Every commercial scope includes PE-stamped engineering, permitting, fabrication, installation, and lifetime service — all in-house.
Yes. Every commercial structure Breslow installs ships with site-specific PE-stamped structural engineering — wind loads calculated for the actual site (both louvers open and louvers closed), snow loads sized to local code, and stamps issued in the state where the project is built. Architects and GCs receive full shop drawings and AIA-compatible specs as part of the standard scope, not as an add-on.
Azenco-manufactured Motorized Louvered Roof systems carry a 20-year structural warranty on the aluminum extrusion and a 5-year warranty on motors, electronics, and finishes. Breslow installation work is warranted separately, and every motorized system we install is backed by our in-house lifetime service team — one phone call, one team, for as long as the structure is on your property.
A Breslow project manager on every commercial job. One point of contact from the first site walk through final punch list. No relay between sales, design, engineering, and install.
PE-stamped engineering is standard, not an add-on. Commercial load calculations, wind ratings (open and closed louvers), and state-specific stamps are included in the scope. Architects and GCs receive full shop drawings and AIA-compatible specs.
Permitting across the Northeast. We expedite DOB submissions, handle state-specific commercial requirements, and track the approval timeline so construction starts on schedule.
Full lifecycle — not a dealership handoff. Most Azenco dealers sub out engineering, permitting, and service. Breslow keeps all of it in-house. That's why country clubs, restaurant groups, and commercial property owners across 9 states trust us with their outdoor revenue.
102 years of continuous operation. Breslow was founded in 1924 and is still Shaw-family operated. When you install a commercial structure from us, the company backing the warranty will still be here in ten years.
Lifetime service on everything we install. Motorized systems need a service partner. We are that partner — one phone call, one team.
Tell us what you're trying to build. Our commercial team will walk your site, develop a photo-real design rendering, and give you a PE-stamped engineering scope and timeline — before you commit to anything.
