Industrial canopy shelters can offer greater protection from the elements across multiple types of industrial and commercial buildings in April 2024, making them a great safety measure for a range of different use cases. They are easily installed and can provide numerous benefits, depending on the exact design.

Many companies turn to canopy buildings as an easy way to supplement existing buildings or to offer protection between two buildings as outdoor short-term storage. However you plan to fuse your industrial canopies, we can offer a wide variety of styles that are perfect for your needs.

What is an industrial canopy?

Industrial canopies are a common type of custom canopy architecture that can provide excellent outdoor protection, either in high traffic areas or lesser-used storage spaces for many types of merchandise.

Typically, canopies are part of simple construction projects, such as temporary buildings. For example, a company may create a temporary building that can act as a garage, using a canopy and steel frame that allows for the storage of vehicles and double trailers.

Canopies can be suited to multiple different weather conditions, covering all kinds of Great British weather in a single covered space. From small covered walkways to much larger structures, our canopy buildings and sheets can help with protecting goods and offering shelter to customers or staff.

Choosing an Industrial Canopy Design

We have many different industrial canopies on offer, and all our products are designed to be perfectly usable on their own. However, we can also combine multiple copies together or use them alongside other structures.

Warehouse Canopies

The simplest of canopies are easily-installed temporary warehouse structures. These offer basic walls (or even none at all) and are supplied as a simple cover, creating a quick-installation structure that can create temporary shelters for storing supplies and equipment.

Covered Walkways

We can offer multiple walkways using steel frame canopies, giving you a covered area between an existing building and another space. This can grant your employees some weather protection and can also mark out walk spaces where they normally would not be clearly marked.

Logistical Covers

Your company may find canopies that cover a large area useful for spaces like a loading bay or supply pick-up point, helping to shield important equipment while it is being supplied to drivers or loaded into vehicles.

Entrance Canopy

Entrance canopies are often used as a way of providing shelter to people near an area’s entrance. Canopies can be added to an existing building – including an entrance canopy on a temporary building – to provide shelter to people waiting to enter the space.

Wall-Mounted Canopies

Wall-mounted canopy designs can be attached to any structure to offer additional shelter, providing a canopy roof that sits off to the side of the main structure. This is good for any building that lacks any real outdoor shelter and can also work well for loading bays connected directly to a building.

Most Popular Industrial Canopy Colours?

There is not a ‘best colour’ for these canopies since it depends on your business. You might prefer to have a canopy for your loading bay that matches the colour of the walls or a loading bay canopy that uses the same colour scheme as your brand.

If you are looking for a certain colour for your canopy, get in touch with us, and we can help point you in the right direction.

Industrial Canopy Materials

A different material will change how different industrial canopies work and how much protection they provide.

Many use material choices like a polycarbonate roof, able to handle strong wind loadings as long as the struts and supports are strong too. When you buy or hire industrial canopies, you get a choice over which material you want to use.

A shelter for employees can be something fairly simple, like wooden supports and a basic canopy that can be left unchanged. These are often cost-effective to hire or just purchase outright.

Larger operations that need year-round rain and wind protection may prefer stronger material elements: things that can stand on their own and shield the equipment underneath them.

On top of this, some industrial canopies require lighting. Entrance canopies might need power to light it up so that people can navigate properly in the dark, even if that just means a few bulbs are hanging down from the polycarbonate roof.

Where can Industrial Canopies Be Installed?

Industrial canopies can be used in many different ways and places, and many of them are multi-functional in particular situations.

Warehouses make heavy use of industrial canopies, especially any warehouse that has a large outdoor component. Industrial canopies can shield things like double-deck trailers or scrap materials from being damaged in bad weather.

Hospitals often use entrance canopies. Even temporary hospitals will use entrance canopies to provide more rain resistance and to guide visitors to the main building.

Any businesses can use industrial canopies, entrance canopies, and other options as they see fit. They might work well as a temporary storage building or as a way to protect other on-site elements from bad weather all year round.

How much do industrial canopy shelters cost?

The average cost of an industrial canopy shelter is around £5,000 in total, but can vary heavily. This can be much higher or much lower depending on the size of the structure, the install process, the site, and the material choices.

Something like a simple entrance canopy over each of a site’s three entrances can be fairly cheap since the installation is easy and material use is minimal. A larger project, like trying to install multiple large canopies at warehouse-sized scales, can quickly add up to a much higher cost.

Choosing the right option for your needs is important. If you choose the right canopy for each project or job, like entrance canopies for your entrances, then you can save a lot of money.

Benefits of building Industrial canopies

Industrial canopies are a multi-use tool that can serve a range of different site types and applications. At their most basic, they can shield customers and staff from a varying range of weather-related hazards and disturbances, making it easier to use the site comfortably.

A temporary canopy can be used while a site is being constructed, such as to protect workers during an outdoor project or to help survey the site for validation purposes. Whatever the reason, a canopy does not have to be connected to a building or business premises to be useful and can stand alone.

Industrial canopies key features

Industrial canopies can come with numerous different core features, some of which are optional on specific designs. These include:

Increased Productivity

Many canopies have high-density overhead lighting, which lets them run during daylight hours or late at night. This allows a business to keep outdoor areas efficient if they have night-shift workers, all without needing to set up lights independent of the canopy layout.

Even during the day, canopies can help prevent key equipment (from small machines to entire double-deck trailers) from getting wet or battered by the wind. This makes them a lot more comfortable to use and minimises the chance of breakdowns or important gear going missing.

Rapid installation

Time is money, and many of the canopies that we offer are designed to be installed quickly whenever they are needed. This can make them great as temporary loading bays, entrances, or even just generic company shelters with no specific intended purpose.

Loading them onto a delivery vehicle is easy, meaning that we can provide you with your new canopy very quickly and get it installed in record time.

Weather Protection

The weather resistance coming with these canopy roof options makes them ideal for outdoor use, regardless of the weather. They can be used to help protect existing outdoor areas that lack a full roof or as the basis for a brand new one.

How to Maintain Industrial Covers and Entry Canopies?

Maintaining your new canopy is as simple as making sure that it does not get heavily damaged. Most canopies can easily survive heavy weather conditions and harsh changes in temperature, with many of them relying on solid material that can’t be broken easily.

It is important to make sure that you choose the right material options for your situation, as well as the right design. Our friendly staff can advise you on which designs might be perfect for your business.
