Oxford Barrel Vault Link Walkway shown is 2.6m wide x 20m long manufactured to accommodate both the fall on site and changes in direction.

Connecting entrances with another structure housing students lockers, the Oxford remains one the most adaptable styles used and remains a firm favorite with schools.

FAQs

Frequently asked questions

Will I require planning permission?: We always advise that you call your local planning authority as there are no hard and fast rules. They will advise on whether you require planning permission for your proposed canopy. Although it differs from region to region canopies under 30m2 may not require permission but this can be affected by situations such as proximity to neighbours, listed building status, conservation areas etc. so it always best to check. We are happy to provide free of charge, scaled drawings etc. of the proposed canopy structure to assist your application should you require.
Will our concerns over children and staff safety be addressed prior to installation?: We have been working within schools for many years. All contractors are Clovis approved and CRB checked. Full risk assessments are carried out prior to starting installation taking into consideration your requirements and safety fencing is erected wherever needed at no additional charge.
How are the fabric sheets attached to the framework?: Fabric sheets are securely attached all round using an aluminium cladding rail system, which has been tried, tested and proven for over 30 years.
Are your canopies usable all year in all weathers?: Yes unlike some solutions that need to be taken down in the winter or during high winds our canopies are designed to be useable all year round. The cladding materials as well as providing shade are also waterproof so that they can be used during wet weather.

I am writing to express our satisfaction with our two new canopies, which will provide cover for our students at break and lunch times. We have found the staff of your company very professional from the outset, flexible in their approach and producing workmanship of a high standard.
