Industrial and Commercial Awnings that fit your needs
—transparent pricing, guaranteed.
Attached / Fixed Awnings
Permanent, steel-framed structures attached to existing sheds, factories, or warehouses. Attached or fixed awnings are an ideal solution when you need additional sheltered space without constructing a new building.
They are made from steel framing with Colorbond sheeting, designed for industrial conditions and engineered to meet all relevant standards. When positioned within 3 metres of a property boundary, a fire rated tilt panel wall is typically required to meet building code fire separation regulations. However, in some cases such as when adjacent to a roadway or waterway the structure may be exempt from the firewall requirement.
Common applications:
-
Loading docks
-
Equipment and plant protection
-
Vehicle and truck bays
Cantilever Awnings
Post-free design for maximum accessibility and efficiency.
Cantilever awnings are permanently attached to the side of an existing shed but extend outward without posts, supported only by the building’s structure.
This creates a clear, obstruction-free area ideal for tight spaces where trucks and forklifts need full access.
The steel framing is specifically engineered to carry roof loads without external supports, making this awning type both practical and durable.
Common applications:
Loading bays
Pallet storage
Drive-through or vehicle access areas
Free-Standing Industrial Awnings & Canopies
Independent, roof-only structures for open-air protection. These are self-supported steel awnings that stand alone, separate from any building. They provide flexible shelter for outdoor spaces such as wash bays, storage yards, or vehicle parking areas.
Some designs incorporate short side skirts usually a couple of metres high to minimise rain or wind entry while maintaining open access.
Common applications:
Wash bays
Outdoor goods storage
Truck and vehicle parking
Fireproofing & Compliance
Safety and compliance built into every design.
When an awning is closer than 3 metres to a property boundary, building codes often require a fire-rated tilt-panel wall for protection.
Our team designs every awning to meet these standards ensuring compliance, safety, and long-term performance.
Note: Not all boundary-side awnings need a firewall. Structures next to roadways or waterways may be exempt our team can advise on the right approach for your site.
