A Gull Wing canopy is supported by a series of posts and beams, with the roof extending outwards on both sides, creating a distinctive shape resembling its avian namesake.
Advantages of this design include:
• Aesthetic Appeal: unique and modern look.
• Fewer Legs - increased space beneath canopy
• Water Runoff: reducing the risk of water damage to the structure and the area below the canopy.
• Ventilation: can create a natural flow of air, providing ventilation and reducing heat buildup.

• Schools
• Shopping Centres
• Hospitals

Cantilever
A cantilevered canopy extends horizontally from support legs on one side, without any additional support columns or braces on the outward side. It relies on the principle of a cantilever, where one end is anchored or supported while the other end extends freely.
Advantages of this design include:
• Does not require fixing to the building
• Can be designed to fit the space available
• Durable and low maintenance
• Increases usability and value of a space
Ideal option for:
• Walkways
• Business parks

Barrel Roof

Advantages of this design include:
• Minimal design increases usable space beneath
• Extends usable outdoor space
• Low Maintenance
Ideal option for:
• Entrances
• Outdoor classrooms
