Canopy

• Glass canopies are a practical feature that can be added to a building or a home. They are generally added to the front of a building in order to protect pedestrians and/or customers from the weather outside.
  
• Whether it be rain, sleet, or snow, glass canopies will ensure that customers will have a dry place to stand under the weather clears up. Another reason as to why a glass canopy may be installed is to allow natural light to light up an entrance way rather than using a generic ceiling light and light bulbs.
• For these particular instances, clear glass is the more popular option but there are other glass options available such as stained glass or tinted glass.

How are Glass Canopies Installed?

• The most important factor to any glass canopy is that the material that it is made out of is resilient to all different types of weathering. Considering that it will be out in the open during all different types of storms, you will want to ensure that it is installed correctly and that the material will be able to withstand any type of weathering.
• If you are interested in installing a canopy, the most common method to installation is to use a frameless toughened glass that will be bolted to the building. This piece of glass will either be supported from the top or underneath by the use of lightweight wires.
• Glass canopies are a fantastic way to add a modern appeal to any corporation whether it be a convenience store or a Fortune 500 company.
