Frequently asked questions
Can you deliver on a public procurement framework?
Yes — we've delivered South Yorkshire school canopies via YPO, ESPO, and MAT direct-award routes. Framework paperwork is handled by our commercial team.
What warranty comes with a school canopy?
Structural frame carries up to 10 years, roofing membrane carries manufacturer warranties from 5-10 years, and LED lighting carries a 5-year warranty on a Doncaster install.
Can canopies span a MUGA?
Yes — larger structural canopies can cover a full MUGA. We size the columns and foundations to the Doncaster wind zone and provide a chartered engineer's sign-off.
Are the fixings anti-vandal?
Yes — all school canopy fixings are tamper-resistant as standard, and shear-nut bolts are specified on any accessible connection.
Can you install at a live Doncaster school site?
Yes — installs are scheduled around term time or delivered in half-term windows. All operatives on Doncaster school jobs carry DBS clearance.
