Glazed canopies can make an attractive focal point for your building’s main entrance. Usually placed outside entrance doors to keep the weather away and providing a covered waiting area for the residents or your clients. Glazed canopies allow natural light through to the entrance area.
We can offer structural glazed and frameless glazed tie rod canopies as well as fully bespoke systems to fit perfectly within your application. Clear toughened/laminated glass canopies are the most popular choice however other glass options are also available.
Canopies can either be designed to be face fixed to an existing wall or fitted back to sunken pad foundations incorporating holding down bolts, with either option we have standard fixing details to match our standard canopy designs. On other occasions we have produced bespoke fixing details where the fixing point is needed to be picked up through an external cladding detail or masonry leaf back to a main structural steel.
Canopies that project from buildings are subject to wind and snow loads and it is very important to determine the correct glass to be used. Our in-house design and project management team will work with you and your construction team from initial concept creation through to site completion. Taking advantage of the latest AutoCAD and where required 3D software, Cambs Glass are able to provide complex designs and geometries to create your unique and bespoke requirements whilst also being able to offer standardised designs to provide cost effective solutions.
