A Selection of our School Canopies:

 

Wall Mounted Canopies

The Coniston Wall Mounted Canopy is our most popular School canopy due to its versatility and value for money. As it is a wall mounted canopy, it provides uninterrupted cover from inside to outside, allowing free movement between the two environments whatever the weather.

Timber Canopies

Our timber canopies are extremely popular within primary schools and secondary schools. They are perfect for creating cover over outside dining areas, allowing your pupils to refresh and enjoy their lunch outside all year round. See more: Timber Canopies for Schools

Tensile Fabric Canopies
We offer a wide range of tensile fabric canopies from umbrellas to free standing canopies which are all perfect for schools. They allow you to hold lessons outdoors all year round, whilst also creating covered outdoor dining areas. See more: Tensile Fabric Canopies for Schools

Benefits of School Canopies

Investing in a school canopy can really benefit your pupils and staff in many ways including:

• Achieve a free-flow play environment, allowing access to the outside at all times
• Create a covered outside space for messy lessons, outdoor eating and storage
• Provide versatile shade and shelter in the playground - all our canopies offer high UV protection
• Create covered slip-free walkways between buildings
• Stop sunlight glare through windows that causes classrooms to become stuffy and uncomfortable
• Allow children to let off steam outside, whatever the weather
• Provide access to fresh air for staff and pupils
• Provide students with an all-weather stimulating outdoor learning environment
• Create an outdoor dining or seating area that can be used in any weather

*In most cases, and by working closely with you, we are able to install your new school canopy within 4 weeks of our initial visit.*

High UV Protection

Another important factor, particularly in summer months is the need for UV protection whilst children are outdoors; all our school canopies feature roofing materials which offer high UV protection to help you to make sure outdoor play is as "sun safe" as possible.

Planning Help

Testimonials

Here's a selection of testimonials from some education facilities we have worked with:

"The canopy was installed within one day, causing very little disruption to the playgroup. We have had many positive comments from parents and more importantly the children love it too. We are very pleased with the finished result."

- Bramford Pre School Playgroup - Ipswich - Suffolk

"We would all (children and staff) like to say “thank you” for the amazing job that you and your staff did in installing our canopy; You could not have been more helpful or patient and your advice was invaluable. I think there were a lot of administrative staff dreading installation - but your team proved them wrong they were efficient and considerate and were finished in record time. With the spate of hot weather we have been having the canopy has come into its own, it has transformed a classroom that used to turn into an oven in the summer into a pleasant place to work and has provided much needed shade and protection for outside play. Thank you again."

- Darlington Education Village - Darlington - County Durham

"From initially contacting Able Canopies to the completion of the installation, the service has been very professional. The installation team were very efficient and very accommodating whilst working outside a classroom of reception children. Many thanks."

- Aldington Primary School - Ashford - Kent

"The new canopy is a wonderful addition to the Preschool. We now have a brilliant all weather learning and play area for the children and staff to enjoy. We were amazed at how quickly it was done - all in one day - and how helpful and accommodating Able Canopies were.”

- Wendover Pre-School - Wendover - Buckinghamshire

"We are thrilled with our new canopy, it completes the overall appearance outside of our new building. The men onsite were very professional, which allowed us to stay open and offer our parents their child's provision with no disruption."

- Kingsfield Pre-School - Chatteris - Cambridgeshire

"The new timber canopies are truly special & really enhance the experience of outdoor socialising for students. I would like to comment on what an excellent job your workmen have done and what a lovely group of workers they were. If I need any further canopies I will definitely be in touch!"

- Carshalton High School for Girls, Carshalton, Surrey
