An Oxford Gullwing Walkway canopy was deemed to be the solution for this 6m wide x 105m long canopy as the columns were required to run centrally with access being needed to both outer sides. The roof has been clad with a flame retardant woven PE material to enable high light levels thereby reducing the need for supplemental lighting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we view existing canopies, so that we know what we are buying?: If you are considering purchasing a canopy from any company, it is in fact strongly recommended that you visit an existing installation to see exactly what you are paying for. At Clovis Canopies we are proud of our work and are happy to arrange (with the clients consent) for you to view examples of our work and structures.
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.

I am writing to say how pleased we are with the new canopies which you recently installed at our school. The whole process, from initial visit to completion, was carried out most professionally with minimal disruption to school life. The installation team were courteous and helpful and took great care to ensure that the site was left clear and tidy. We are all delighted with our new facility, which is a massive improvement on what we had before. Thank you once again.

We have been very satisfied with the work. The installers have respected the work going on within the centre and have worked around us. We would highly recommend Clovis for standard of service.

S Warner, Little Forest Children's Centre

Extremely happy with the aesthetically pleasing design, build quality and courteous, cheerful workmen who erected the canopy. The children are proud of their new outdoor learning area and the staff keen to develop the Early Years Curriculum. A pleasure doing business with you and your team.

S M Greenaway - Headteacher, Mereworth Primary

We are very pleased with how they look and that they will be a ‘boon’ for our children in terms of shade and rain protection. However my main reason for writing is that I am very pleased with the way in which your staff Martin Sears and Timothy Barclay, have carried out the project. The space we used for the canopies is a main thoroughfare to our playgrounds. They have managed to keep this are very tidy and safe throughout the week so that we can function as a school without any inconvenience. This was mainly due to Martin and Timothy, who in addition to doing such a good job have worked exceptionally well, ensuring ‘business as usual’ and have been very friendly with staff and children. They are a credit to your company and I hope that you will let them know that I have followed up my appreciation of them with this letter.
