Canopies for Modular Buildings

Modular buildings are a popular solution for temporary spaces, offering flexibility and practicality for a variety of settings, such as schools, hospitals, and construction sites. However, many assume that these structures cannot accommodate durable, long-lasting canopies. At Able Canopies, we’re here to dispel that myth. Our Coniston Wall-Mounted Canopy is designed to seamlessly integrate with modular buildings, providing an elegant and robust shelter solution.

The Coniston canopy is crafted from high-grade aluminium and features vandal and shatter resistant polycarbonate roofing panels, making it ideal for a range of commercial applications, from covered walkways to sheltered entrances or outdoor learning spaces. Importantly, this canopy can be securely fixed to modular buildings, ensuring stability and performance even when attached to structures that may not have traditional brick or concrete walls.

Our expert team have designed special brackets to enable a safe and secure fixing to attach the canopy to the building, creating seamless weather protection from the moment someone step outside, meeting all safety standards.

The addition of canopies on modular buildings, create sheltered spaces that protect against the elements while enhancing the aesthetics and usability of buildings. Whether you need to extend your usable space or improve access, the Coniston canopy delivers a durable and cost-effective solution tailored to your needs.

Modular Building Canopy Example

A great example of showing how we can adapt the Coniston canopy to fit your projects needs is the Southampton University Hospital project.

The contractor Portakabin, who supplied and installed the modular buildings, required a canopy to link two buildings together, creating a weatherproof walkway between them. The Coniston was perfect for this as we used our brackets to ensure a secure installation onto one of the buildings, and we were able to install the eaves of the canopy tight against the building to create a watertight seal.

If you have a project that requires protection from the weather, either for modular buildings or traditional buildings, give us a call or send us an email and we’ll be in touch.
