Premium door canopies, designed to suit heritage, classic, and modern homes

Most UK front doors measure 1981mm tall by 762mm wide. Wider doors up to 838mm are common in newer homes, while older cottages may have narrower openings.

For a standard door, a 1200mm wide canopy is the most popular choice. It gives good coverage without looking oversized.

Most canopies project 600–800mm from the wall. A deeper projection (up to 1000mm) gives more shelter, ideal for keeping parcels dry.

Usually not — most canopies fall under permitted development rules, as long as they project less than 1 metre from the wall. If you live in a listed building or conservation area, check with your local authority.

Measure your door width including the frame, add 100–200mm each side, check vertical clearance above the door, and ensure space for gallows brackets.

If you have limited vertical clearance, a Flat or Low Pitch canopy is a good choice. Apex styles generally need more space above the door.

Yes — most canopies come with full fixing kits and instructions. If you’re confident with DIY and basic tools, you can fit one yourself. For larger models, professional fitting is recommended.

Most installations take 2–3 hours for DIYers or less than an hour for a professional installer. Always follow the fitting instructions supplied.
