Product Details:
A Modern Entrance Shelter for Public Buildings
The Richmond has been developed as a versatile entrance shelter that can be installed as a freestanding structure or wall-mounted to the rear, subject to the suitability of the existing building fabric. This flexibility allows it to be integrated into both new-build projects and retrofit schemes.
Typical applications include: • School entrance canopy installations • Commercial and office building entrances • Healthcare and community facilities • Leisure and cultural venues • Residential developments with shared access points
As a building entrance canopy, it enhances arrival points while offering reliable shelter from the elements.
Steel Structure with Planar Glazing
The Richmond combines a robust steel framework with planar glazed roof panels, creating a canopy that is both structurally sound and visually light.
Structural framework • Circular steel uprights for strength and a contemporary profile • Powder coated to a wide range of colours • Engineered for permanent external installation
Roof glazing • Planar glazing system for a clean, uninterrupted finish • Opal or bronze cladding options available • Designed to balance daylight transmission with weather protection
This configuration positions the Richmond as a refined steel entrance canopy suited to prominent façades.
Integrated Drainage and Lighting Options
The Richmond canopy can be specified with features that enhance both performance and usability.
Available options include: • Aluminium guttering for controlled water run-off • LED lighting for consistent illumination • Solar lighting for low-energy installations • Aluminium profile weather-resistant barriers
These options support safe, comfortable use throughout the year, particularly in high-traffic environments.
Installation and Site Integration
A full installation service is available, ensuring accurate positioning and secure fixing. Where appropriate, the canopy can be wall-mounted to reduce the number of front supports, maintaining clear access routes beneath.
The Richmond can also be coordinated with complementary site features such as signage, lighting columns, and seating to create a cohesive entrance environment.
