In many areas, small-scale additions like glass canopies generally fall under 'permitted development rights' which means you will not need planning permission as long as specific conditions are met.
However, we recommend always checking with your local authority for any large glass canopies to avoid any issues upon installation.
Glass canopies are ideal for any entryway.
Most commonly they are used for above front entrance doors, but are also often used for rear entrances and patio or bifold doors, as they provide additional protection when venturing outside in wet weather. You can visit our gallery for more inspiration of our glass installations!
