Manufacture & Design

We manufacture all carport and canopy kits to exact specifications.  Each system is individually made to your requirements in terms of length, width, height, roof pitch and supports so they are guaranteed to fit your space perfectly.  We even build in adjustment, so you have a little ‘wiggle-room’ when it comes to installation.

To get started, we ask you to send some photographs to us and then we can help you with design.  We’ll return drawings, you can make as many revisions as you like and only when you approve the design do we commence manufacturing.

Installation

We supply our systems to trade and DIY in kit form, so if you’re handy with a few basic tools, you can save a significant amount compared to similar systems on the market that can only be purchased with installation included.

Our carports are completely bespoke in size & specification, so you can guarantee that it will fit your application perfectly.  All the cutting, folding, welding and drilling is pre-finished in factory, so you only need to fix the pieces together with the pre-supplied fittings.

Finish

Our canopy kits are supplied powder coated in any RAL colour of your choice (RAL 7016 Anthracite Grey being currently most popular), specified to BS EN 12206-1:2004 over hot dipped galvanising treatment to give a lifetime maintenance-free finish.

Additionally, the roof material can be specified from clear, bronze or opal polycarbonate double-wall 10mm sheets with UV protection built in at no additional cost.

The roof structure is formed using our uniquely developed ‘G’ frame system, which incorporates an integral hidden gutter all round its perimeter, allowing flexibility for installation and water drainage whilst creating a strong, modern contemporary look with deep fascias and smooth lines.  Heavy duty rectangular hollow section (RHS) legs or brackets support the canopy and can be manufactured in various ways to suit the installation.

Delivery & Lead Time

Your canopy will be packaged in a custom made timber crate to keep it safe during delivery.

The weight of your carport or canopy can be anywhere between one third of a tonne for a smaller structure, and a tonne or more for a larger one.  For your convenience, we use specialist delivery vehicles that have an ‘all-terrain’ forklift truck attached to the rear of the lorry which can unload your canopy/carport kit in one go and place it (in most cases) on your driveway or similar suitable location.

Once you’ve placed an order and approved the design, our lead time is generally 3 – 6 weeks dependant on work load.  This allows for the turn-around time through the manufacturing, galvanising, powder coating, packaging and distribution processes.  We’ll confirm our approximate lead time at point of order, and specify an exact delivery date nearer the time that is convenient for you.

If you have any access issues, please let us know and we will do our best to accommodate your requirements.

Ordering

The order process is simple.

Finalise the location and size of structure that you want to order and if you haven’t already, send some photo’s so we can get to work on design. We’ll go through all the technical stuff leaving nothing to chance. If you have any on-site issues, like slopes or pipes on the wall, show these in the photo’s and we’ll advise you…We can work around most issues with minimum fuss.

This is a bespoke product so a deposit of 25% is payable on order. Balance to follow 2 weeks prior to delivery.
