Clear awnings

Permanent, elegant polycarbonate awnings to protect doors against the elements. Offered with clear, tinted and opaque finishes. Standard widths and a modular option will fit most given areas. Aluminum or polypropylene brackets offered in several colours. Can be installed year-round. Offered with our installation in our catchment area or as DIY kits.

We carry a line of clear polycarbonate canopies for doors and walkways. This style blends nicely with modern and old houses alike and provides good protection from the elements while being hardly noticeable.

Canopies are offered in a variety of finishes with aluminium or polypropylene brackets. Cover sheets made of monolithic polycarbonate withstand the UV, will not yellow or wave. Installation requires little overhead, so can be mounted in tight areas above doors.

Awnings come in two basic styles – front curve and side curve – barrel style. See tabs for sizes and options available.

Installation is straight forward – either by us or as a DIY kit, see install tab.

Awnings are fairly straightforward for self-install. The kit comes in a flat cardboard box with all parts, fasteners and installation instruction. Most sizes are easy to ship, save for the single panel awning wider than 60″. These sizes can be shipped but require additional crating so additional costs may render it prohibitive. For wide sizes, we suggest using modular awnings.

Please note:

• For tight overhead use the low shoe, available in aluminium only.
• If an awning installs low above the storm door check if the awning will clear the door.
• Wall fasteners supplied are for brick / block installation. For other wall material, you will need to add your own appropriate fasteners.
• Stucco or siding wall may present an issue. We recommend installing a 2x plate on the wall and mount the awning brackets on it.
• We have no snow load values. This product has been sold in Europe for many years and was introduced in North America some decade ago. We have had no snow load issues and are not aware of any with other distributors.
