Now is the perfect time to upgrade your outdoor space with a stylish veranda or awning.

As the days become warmer and we look forward to the summer months ahead, it’s the ideal opportunity to assess your outdoor space.

Adding a veranda or awning is all you need to create the ultimate summer sanctuary.

Its Heritage and Contemporary verandas are made to order in a range of sizes with your choice of roof panel while its award-winning awnings are the perfect finishing touch.

We think Canopy Superstore is a great one-stop shop for your summer outdoor upgrade. Its experienced and highly knowledgeable team are on hand, ready to help you choose the right solution for your needs.

Verandas:

A veranda is the perfect way to blend indoor and outdoor living by creating a private, shady space for dining, relaxing and entertaining.
Protecting you from the elements, it allows you to enjoy all that nature has to offer from the comfort of your own garden or outside space.
A cost-effective alternative to a home extension, it’s also sure to increase your property’s value as well as aesthetic appeal.
Manufactured in the UK, Canopy Superstore verandas are made with aluminium frames in a range of sizes and your choice of roof panels. Pick from 8mm laminated safety glass, 16mm opal polycarbonate, 16mm bronze polycarbonate or 16mm clear polycarbonate.
The two styles – Heritage and Contemporary – feature a unique design that removes the need for a central post in verandas up to 5m wide, giving you an uninterrupted view.
Low maintenance, they are made to order, delivered to your installation site and are easy to install by a competent DIYer. Bespoke options are also available on request.

Awnings:

An awning instantly upgrades your outdoor space, offering immediate shade and privacy thanks to its retractable design in your choice of a manual or motorised opening,
Cost-effective and affordable, an awning can be installed in gardens, on terraces and patios, balconies and decking, in a size, fabric and frame colour to suit your space.
The ultra-fade-resistant acrylic awnings are made by award-winning German manufacturer Lewens. Low maintenance with minimal upkeep, they can simply be extended and retracted as needed without using any ground space.
