Aluminium Canopy – Frequently Asked Questions
Do aluminium canopies require building consent in New Zealand?
In many cases, aluminium canopies under 30 square metres and non-enclosed may not require building consent in New Zealand. Requirements can vary depending on wind zone, proximity to boundaries, fixing method, and local council rules. A site assessment is recommended before finalising the design.
Are aluminium canopies suitable for New Zealand wind conditions?
Yes. Aluminium canopies can be designed to suit New Zealand wind conditions when post sizes, spans, and fixing details are properly considered. The final design is typically adjusted based on the project’s wind zone and installation location to support long-term stability.
What roofing options are available for aluminium canopies?
Aluminium canopies can be fitted with polycarbonate or glass roofing. Polycarbonate is lightweight, impact-resistant, and provides strong UV protection. Glass offers a clearer appearance but requires stronger supporting structures due to its weight.
What is the difference between polycarbonate and glass canopies?
Polycarbonate canopies are lighter and highly impact-resistant, making them a practical option for New Zealand outdoor conditions. Glass canopies look more transparent but are heavier and may require additional structural support. The best option depends on your site conditions, design preference, and budget.
Can aluminium canopies be customised in size and colour?
Yes. Aluminium canopies are custom-made to suit your site measurements and fixing points. Frame colours are commonly available in Black, Grey, and White, with other powder-coat options available on request.
How long do aluminium canopies typically last?
With proper installation and normal maintenance, aluminium canopies commonly last 15 to 25 years or longer. Aluminium frames are corrosion-resistant and generally require less upkeep than traditional timber structures.
Can a canopy be installed onto an existing house, deck, or concrete area?
In most cases, yes. Aluminium canopies can be installed onto existing houses, decks, or concrete areas. Fixing points, waterproofing details, and drainage direction are checked during a site assessment to ensure a safe installation.
Do aluminium canopies require much maintenance?
Maintenance is minimal. Periodic cleaning and clearing leaves from drainage areas are usually enough to keep the canopy in good condition.
How long does canopy installation usually take?
Once materials are ready, installation typically takes one to two days, depending on canopy size, design complexity, and site access.
Can side enclosures or outdoor blinds be added later?
Yes. Side enclosures or outdoor blinds can be added during the initial installation or at a later stage. Additional structural considerations may apply depending on enclosure size and wind exposure.
