GRP Canopies
Our GRP canopies are lightweight, durable, and virtually maintenance-free, ideal for enhancing building exteriors. Available in flat, dual pitch, or mono pitch designs, they meet NHBC standards. Perfect for new builds or refurbishments, these canopies combine aesthetic appeal with long-term performance.
GRP Bay Windows
GRP bay windows offer a low-maintenance, stylish solution for residential properties. They can be supplied pre-insulated or with truss rafters for on-site tiling. Designed for easy installation, these bays provide enhanced light and space while maintaining structural integrity.
Dormer Windows
GRP dormers create additional usable space in roofs efficiently. Available in apex, flat, or eaves designs, they can be tiled on-site or supplied with GRP effect roofs. Insulation and fixing points ensure energy efficiency and ease of installation.
Contemporary Canopies
Contemporary canopies feature steel frames with galvanised and powder-coated finishes, paired with UV-stable polycarbonate roofs. These sleek, durable structures provide weather protection while complementing modern architectural styles across residential and commercial settings.
Binstore/Cyclestore Doors
GRP or timber binstore/cyclestore doors combine durability with security. GRP options are maintenance-free, while timber versions offer custom finishes. Both include optional ironmongery and keypad locks, tailored to meet housing development requirements.
