The Good Canopy Guide Part 5
Able Canopies have put together a fantastic guide to help you choose the ideal canopy for you. It is named The Good Canopy Guide. This guide outlines all of the different options you will need to take into consideration when purchasing a canopy.
Each week we will post a new section of the guide for you to read and take into consideration. If you would like to view the full guide now please click here where you can view it online or download your free printable version.
What Makes a Good Canopy?…
Choosing the correct canopy for you and your organisation can be a daunting prospect as there are so many different products to choose from and, when choosing a product, you may also find yourself faced with even more choices to make; for example, the design, size, and construction materials are all important factors to consider, along with the roof covering and colour of the canopy. There are also other important factors that you may need to take into consideration such as whether the canopy offers UV protection.
That’s why here at Able Canopies, we would like to make your life a little easier by giving you all the information you need to help you to choose the right canopy for you.

This week we are going to go through the importance of quality, UV protection and we will also explain bespoke canopy options.
6. Quality
It is important that you choose a canopy company that offers quality and long life expectancies with all their products to give you value for money and peace of mind. Here at Able Canopies, all of our canopies can have a life expectancy of 25 years and we make sure we always use the highest quality materials possible to ensure that your canopy is durable and meets all of your shade and shelter needs.
7. UV Protection
It is advisable to choose a canopy which offers high UV protection from the sun’s harmful UV rays, especially for early years settings. Most of our canopies offer up to 99% UV protection from the sun making it easy to protect those underneath allowing them to play, sit or eat safely in sunny weather.
8. Bespoke canopies
If you are unable the find a design that you require or need a canopy constructed from a specific material, we offer a Design & Build service to allow you to create a canopy tailor made to your requirements. Bespoke canopies can be almost any shape or size as long as it is structurally viable. Contact us on 0800 389 9072 for more details.
