Handcrafted door canopies in Banff and Macduff, Aberdeenshire

Handcrafted door canopies are individually hand made to your specifications.

There are 3 styles of canopies I make:

You can find photos of the different door canopy styles here.

Slide-over canopies

The apex and lean-to style are both also available as a slider-over canopy. If you have an existing concrete slab canopy there is no need to remove it, as this type of canopy is especially made to slide over and cover it.

Construction

The apex and lean-to canopy are of timber construction and finished in UPVC, white being the standard colour but other colours are also available, such as anthracite grey, rosewood, black ash, light oak, etc. The arms and brackets are of timber construction for strength.

The open-fronted apex canopy is entirely made of wood (except the roof tiles, see below).

The wooden sections are given three coats of paint - primer, undercoat and satin finish in the colour of your choice.

For all styles of canopy, the roof is made using lightweight grey composite roofing slates, a durable and low-maintenance alternative to real slate tiles, and widely used in the conservatory industry.

Fitting

All canopies are fitted to the house wall. The arms/brackets are bolted to the wall, then the canopy placed on top and bolted into the arms/brackets. The canopy is also secured to the house wall with a metal bracket at the apex. A lead substitute flashing is fitted to the house wall and canopy edge to form a watertight seal.

Sizes

I can make and fit you a canopy to any size within reason.

Canopies are available in widths from 1 metre (40 inch) to 2.4 metre (94 inch). The depth of the apex and lean-to canopy from the house wall to the front edge of the canopy vary approximately from 55cm to 60cm (approx. 24 inches).
