Single Column Monopitch Canopies
A Monopitch Canopy features a single sloped roof, supported by a number of mounts or columns. As the name suggests, a Single Column Monopitch is essentially the same but with one crucial difference.
While most canopies in the monopitch style are supported by uprights and fixings along its length, this product is supported by just one sturdy column at either side. This creates a covered space that feels much more open and is free of obstructions, with a structural design requirement that lends the canopy to smaller-scale applications.
Cycle parking shelters and passenger waiting shelters are just some of the ways a Single Column Monopitch Canopy can be used. The minimal, unobtrusive columns bring a gracefulness to this straightforward canopy and a footprint that is suited to most locations. The beauty of opting for a Single Column Monopitch as a cycle shelter is that it allows riders to park their bikes without hindrance. It provides fantastic accessibility and ample room for cycle racks and stands, as well as space for users to manoeuvre their bikes.
With load bearing purlins, anti-climb end frames and anti-tamper high strength bolts, a Single Column Monopitch Canopy is solidly built to high standards and able to withstand almost any weather condition. Meanwhile, the gently sloped roof, guttering, and downpipes efficiently channel even the heaviest of downpours, keeping everyone and everything standing beneath dry and comfortable.
For added security and convenience, a shelter incorporating a Single Column Monopitch Canopy even be fitted with internal lighting, and the heavy-duty galvanised steel frame can be powder-coated to complement existing colour schemes.

Testimonials
"The quality of service and installation was second to none"
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you, your design team and your installation team for their hard work and performance at Richmond Primary School in Hinckley.
As you know the design concept for the canopies was particularly difficult to achieve and the finished product is an important feature of the school.
Your assistance and advice to Value Engineer the finished design was crucial and fundamental in their inclusion in the finished scheme. Throughout the procurement and design processes the open communication links has resulted in a product that not only looks great but is one that the end user is thrilled with.
The finished product belies the effort required, particularly when considering the sequencing, access and programme difficulties which proved a challenge for all of us. The quality of service and installation was second to none.
