TIMELESS CHARM
A canopy awning is a fixed fabric awning shaped over a window, door or walkway. It shades the glass and the entrance from sun and rain, keeps rooms cooler, and adds instant character to the front of your home.
Choose from door canopies, elegant cupolas and traditional Dutch hoods, made to measure in a wide range of quality Sattler fabrics and colours.

OUR STYLES
OVER YOUR DOOR
A neat fixed canopy over an entry door or porch. Shelters the doorway from sun and rain and gives the front of your home a warm, welcoming finish.
ELEGANT CURVES
A softly rounded, domed canopy for windows and entrances. The curved shape adds a classic, upmarket look while shading the glass below.
CLASSIC HERITAGE
The traditional convex hood over a window or door. A timeless heritage shape that suits period and character homes and just keeps looking good.
WHAT IT COSTS
Every canopy awning is made to measure, so the price depends on the style, size and fabric you choose. A small door canopy costs far less than a large cupola over a picture window.

Your Questions Answered
A canopy awning is a fixed fabric awning shaped over a window, door or walkway. It shades the opening from sun and light rain and adds character to your home. Unlike a folding arm awning, it stays in place rather than retracting.
Three main styles: door canopies over an entry, elegant curved cupolas, and traditional Dutch hoods. All are made to measure in a wide range of quality Sattler fabrics, shapes and colours.
A Dutch hood is a traditional convex “hood” shaped canopy fitted over a window or door. It is a timeless, heritage look that suits period and character homes, and it shades the glass while sheltering it from the weather.
Canopy awnings are made from quality water-resistant acrylic fabric, so they shed sun and light rain and protect the opening below. They are weather protection rather than a fully sealed roof. For an all-weather waterproof cover, ask us about the Sintesi retractable roof.
Choose a canopy awning if you want a fixed, decorative shade that adds street appeal and never needs operating. Choose a folding arm or retractable awning if you want to open and close a larger shaded area over a patio or deck. Our team can help you pick the right one.
