What is the Difference Between Canopies and Awnings?
At the core of awnings and canopies is their ability to provide shelter to your businesses outdoor spaces, offering additional covered space for customers, protecting those visiting your premises from the elements throughout the seasons. However, there is a difference between an awning and a canopy.
Awnings are attached to the façade and extend / retract whenever shade or shelter is required. They are typically used within shops and restaurants during the Spring to Autumn months to accommodate and protect customers from the higher temperatures along with rain showers.
Shop and restaurant canopies, on the other hand, are permanent aluminium structures with a frame and vertical posts, which can be freestanding or attached to the building. Featuring a louvered roof that rotates or rotates and retracts, they provide complete protection from all weather conditions including shade from the sun and shelter from rain. As such a canopy for your business provides complete flexibility.
Our commercial canopies are made to measure available in virtually any size and with endless customisation options.
The Benefits of Commercial Canopies
- Make Use Of All Your Outdoor Space – With a commercial canopy you can provide shelter for any outdoor area. You can use canopies to provide coverage for outdoor dining settings, wedding celebrations, parties, and more.
- All Weather Protection – Whether it is pouring with rain, brilliant sunshine or blowing a breeze, canopies offer all weather protection ensuring no matter the climatic conditions customers can enjoy your outdoor space comfortably.
- Energy Efficient – By keeping the heat and wind off your windows and doors, canopies can help keep the temperature inside your building at comfortable levels. This removes the need to exert your heating and cooling systems, resulting in a reduction in energy costs.
- Protects Your Property – Canopies block out ultraviolet rays that causes furniture and equipment to fade both indoors and outdoors which in turn helps cut down on repair or replacement costs.
- Aesthetic Appeal – With the right design your canopy can enhance the building appearance providing a striking, eye catching addition. Canopies are built to order, to your exact size, colour and design.
