Canopies
Bespoke timber canopies for schools, nurseries and playgrounds, creating practical covered space beside buildings and outdoor play areas.
Canopies create practical covered outdoor space beside school and nursery buildings, helping playgrounds, teaching areas and quieter spaces remain useful in more varied weather. The examples here include compact courtyard structures and longer wall-side installations designed around very different sites.
We plan each canopy around the available footprint, adjoining buildings, access and how the covered area will be used. Timber framing and clear roof panels can be adapted to suit the site rather than forcing every project into one fixed layout.
Planning a school or playground canopy
Photographs and approximate measurements are useful when you contact us, but you do not need a finished specification. We can work from the space and the way it needs to be used to shape an initial canopy layout.
For a freestanding teaching shelter, compare our outdoor classrooms. Where open shade rather than a roofed structure is the better fit, see our shade sails.
