Cape Town Western Cape 7550
This system is becoming ever more popular. It is the preferred method in the Cape regions and any other areas with adverse weather conditions.
This is due to the rigid frame of the canopy which replaces the conventional cable in the hem of the shade cloth with 48mm round tubing connected to specific corner connectors.
This makes the canopy a rigid frame and incredibly strong, able to withstand winds of high speeds
It serves the basic function of vehicle and asset protection and will not require any maintenance other than a touch up of the paint on the structural steel periodically if not galvanised. The shade cloth fabric will remain taught on the structure for its entire life span and will not bellow in the wind or cause ponding on the shade cloth structure.
This system is also available in a cantilever version. This is done by replacing the standard columns with cantilever columns and hangers from which the canopy steel work and shade cloth is suspended. This renders the driveways free from obstruction and vehicles can move around without the risk of collision into a column. This system can also be bolted from walls if that opportunity becomes available. The columns are replaced by wall plates which are anchored suitably into the concrete or brick building from which the shade port canopy is suspended
