Canopy with polycarbonate roof

Polycarbonate canopy

An enclosure with a polycarbonate roof is often chosen because of privacy, budgetary reasons and in addition, the appearance of the polycarbonate can also be a decisive reason. A feature of a polycarbonate porch is that an additional post is less likely to be needed due to the lower weight of the roof panels and polycarbonate is cheaper as opposed to glass roofing.

Good to know

The canopy is always custom-made to the centimeter
The polycarbonate roof is available with (heat-resistant) transparent polycarbonate or (heat-resistant) opal polycarbonate
The polycarbonate roof is also possible with a manual or electric sliding roof
The canopy can be placed freestanding or on the facade

Types canopies with polycarbonate roof

Porch with polycarbonate
fixed roof

With a polycarbonate porch with fixed roof, large spans on 2 uprights are feasible because of the roof panels that are lightweight. The roof protects you from the rain and heats up less quickly compared to a glass roof. A polycarbonate roofed porch is also the most economical option.

Mega porch with polycarbonate roof

The mega veranda is a patio covering with high load-bearing capacity. Thus, the roof can be built to a size of 7 meters wide and 6 meters deep, as much as 42 m² on just two uprights. The thicker beams, thicker gutter and thicker uprights make this robust-looking porch extremely strong.

Porch with polycarbonate sliding roof

With the sliding roof veranda, you are prepared for any weather. With the high temperatures, slide open the roof electrically or manually and add walls to turn it into a cozy garden room in winter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for an overhang with a polycarbonate roof?

In many cases, a canopy with a polycarbonate roof is permit-free, especially if it is in the backyard and meets local building codes. However, there are exceptions, such as for large sizes or monumental properties. You can easily do a permit check yourself via your municipality's website.

Do you have doubts or need help? Then we are happy to support you, in cooperation with AlliosDeite, specialists in permit applications and spatial planning. This way you can be sure that everything is legally correct and you can have your dream veranda erected without any worries.

What is the difference between a veranda, garden room and conservatory?

A veranda is an aluminum roof with uprights, usually without walls. This creates an extension of your home where you are sheltered from sun and rain, while still retaining that true outdoor feeling.

A garden room is basically a veranda that is fully or partially enclosed with (sliding glass) walls. This allows you to use the outdoor space comfortably even in cold or windy weather, but a garden room is not fully insulated and usually not heated.

Both verandas and garden rooms are available with various types of roofs, such as a glass roof, polycarbonate roof, sliding roof, slatted roof, cloth roof or folding roof.

A conservatory is a full-fledged and fully insulated extension to your home. It consists of a glass roof with fixed walls, insulation and heating. Often an opening is made in the facade so that the conservatory is fully integrated into the house. Because of the higher insulation value, other foundation requirements apply to a conservatory and the investment is higher than for a veranda or garden room.
