Entrance canopies
in Cyprus —
shade, rain cover, dry door.

A canopy over the door, the staircase or a window. On brackets where the wall carries the load, on posts where the projection is long. Fall and gutter designed in from the start, so the water does not drip where you are looking for your keys.

Canopies I make

A canopy looks like a simple part, but it is decided in two places: how it grips the wall and where the water goes. Both are settled before the first profile is cut.

/ 01

On brackets

The classic build: a frame on the wall with two diagonal braces. Takes no floor space and does not block the path. Works up to roughly 1.5 m projection.

/ 02

On posts

Two posts at the front, concreted into the ground. For deep projections, insulated facades and hollow-block walls where a brace has nothing solid to grip.

/ 03

Staircase canopy

Covers the whole flight, not just the top landing. Longer, with the fall running along the stairs so rain does not drip onto the treads — which is where they turn slippery.

/ 04

Window canopy

A narrow canopy above a window or balcony door: cuts the midday sun and keeps rain out with the window open. Same styling as the entrance canopy.

/ 05

Glass canopy

8+8 laminated glass on a slim stainless or aluminium frame. For modern facades where the canopy must not look bolted on. The only one that genuinely cleans.

/ 06

Shopfront canopy

Over a shop or restaurant entrance: wider, with room for lighting and signage, and set at a height that does not hide the window display.

What goes on top

The frame lasts decades. The roofing is the part that will eventually be replaced — so it is worth choosing with the trade-offs on the table.

8 mm polycarbonate

Twin-wall, UV protected on one face. Light, lets daylight through, 10–12 years. The default for homes.

Galvanised sheet

Cheaper and tougher. Darkens the entrance and is audible in rain — good for service entrances.

8+8 laminated glass

The most expensive. Cleans up, does not yellow, does not go cloudy. If it breaks it stays on the interlayer.

💧

Gutter on the edge

Without it the water falls in a line right in front of the door. With it, it runs off to the side or into the house downpipe.

Why an off-the-shelf canopy usually does not fit

Ready-made canopies come in two or three standard widths and one mounting height. Your entrance has its own width, its own overhang above, perhaps a pipe or a light fitting in the middle of the wall. The result is a canopy that either does not cover the door or is held up by improvised brackets. A frame welded on site costs about the same and fits the opening you actually have.

Why the price here is approximate

What the page works out is an estimate, not a quote. The final figure is always worked out separately, because the same structure in two different places does not cost the same.

  • How easy the spot is to reach, and whether the van and the gear fit.
  • What it stands on and bolts to: wall, concrete, roof, soil — the condition of the base changes the job.
  • Where reinforcement is needed and where it can be done more simply — and come out cheaper.
  • How fast you need it, and how much preparing the site takes.

This is not factory production, where everything comes out identical, soulless and at the lowest price. Each piece is made for your particular spot. Write to me — we will go through where reinforcement is worth it and where it is not, and I will find an option that suits you.

Frequently asked questions

How much does an entrance canopy cost in Cyprus?
A small canopy over a door starts at €300. A typical 1.8×1.2 m with polycarbonate is from €600 fitted, the same on posts from €800. A large 3×2 m with laminated glass is from €2900. Send a photo of the entrance with a tape measure to WhatsApp and you get a price back.
Wall-mounted or on posts?
Wall-mounted if the projection is under about 1.5 m and the wall is concrete or solid brick — the diagonal brackets carry the load back into the masonry. Beyond that, or on an insulated facade, I use two posts: they load the ground instead of the insulation.
Which roofing survives the Cypriot sun?
Twin-wall polycarbonate with UV protection on one face is the usual choice: light, lets daylight through, lasts 10–12 years. Sheet steel is cheaper and tougher, but it is noisy in rain and darkens the entrance. 8+8 laminated glass is the most expensive and the most elegant — and the only one that actually cleans up.
Will the water run off, or drip onto the door?
A canopy is always built with a 5–10% fall away from the wall and a gutter along the front edge. Without that, water pools in the middle, the sheet sags, and the drip lands exactly where you stand with your keys. If there is a house downpipe above, I tie into it.
How long does the job take?
A survey, then 3–5 working days to fabricate and half a day to fit. The frame is welded on site to the real opening — entrances are rarely symmetrical, and an off-the-shelf canopy almost never sits properly.
