Canopies and shelters designed around how your site is used

A canopy outside a primary school, a hospital entrance and a railway station all do the same basic job, but they don’t face the same demands. Pupils climb on things. Patients need step-free, sheltered routes. Passengers need clear sightlines and somewhere to wait. Broxap is a UK manufacturer, so each structure is designed, fabricated and installed with the people who use it in mind, not just the weather.

Our range covers entrance canopies, covered walkways, cycle shelters, car park shelters, smoking shelters, spectator shelters and more, in steel, polycarbonate, glass, fabric and timber.

 

Education

Schools, colleges and universities use canopies to extend teaching space outdoors, keep pupils dry at drop-off and break times, and protect cycle and scooter storage. Our education range includes outdoor classrooms, covered play areas and entrance canopies, with installations at schools such as Offley Primary School in Sandbach and Cambourne Village College in Cambridge. Browse education canopies and shelters.

 

Healthcare and hospitals

Hospital and healthcare sites need sheltered, accessible routes between buildings, weather protection at entrances and drop-off points, and shelters that keep smoking away from doorways. We’ve supplied hospital sites including Royal Stoke University Hospital. Browse healthcare and hospital canopies.

 

Public transport

Stations, bus interchanges and transport hubs need durable, easily maintained structures that give passengers somewhere sheltered to wait and a secure place to leave a bike. Our range includes passenger waiting shelters, covered walkways and cycle parking. Browse public transport canopies and shelters.

 

Commercial

For offices, retail parks, industrial units and mixed-use developments, canopies and shelters do a practical job and also shape how a building looks. Typical projects include entrance canopies, car park shelters, covered walkways and BREEAM-compliant cycle shelters and compounds. Browse commercial canopies and shelters.

 

Hospitality, leisure and sports

Pubs, restaurants, hotels, leisure centres and sports clubs use canopies to extend their season outdoors and give spectators and customers cover. Options include outdoor dining and social canopies, pergolas and sport and spectator shelters. Browse hospitality, leisure and sports canopies.

 

Standard ranges or fully bespoke

Many of our canopies and shelters are available as standard ranges in a choice of styles (mono-pitch, duo-pitch, cantilever and curved roof, among others), materials and fixings. If your site needs something different, our Design & Build service takes a project from initial design through project management to installation and handover. Every product comes with our guarantees and warranties, and BIM objects are available for many products to support your specification.
