Oxford XL Barrel Vault Canopy

The Oxford XL Barrel Vault is a large span canopy structure using a trellis arch design. It is ideal for large communal areas such as covered outdoor dining and recreation areas in secondary schools, and for covering large courtyards. The roof of the canopies can either be clad with flame retardant waterproof PVC fabric or polycarbonate.

Substantial columns enable eaves heights to be matched with virtually any adjoining building.

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Can we view existing canopies, so that we know what we are buying?

If you are considering purchasing a canopy from any company, it is in fact strongly recommended that you visit an existing installation to see exactly what you are paying for. At Clovis Canopies we are proud of our work and are happy to arrange (with the clients consent) for you to view examples of our work and structures.

Do you use Polycarbonate, PETG, GRP or Acrylic for non fabric cladding?

At Clovis Canopies we use polycarbonate roofing as although slightly more expensive, we find it has a better combination of strength, impact resistance, sheet size and colour, fire / flame resistance and longevity of life than any of the other above mentioned cheaper materials.

How are the fabric sheets attached to the framework?

Fabric sheets are securely attached all round using an aluminium cladding rail system, which has been tried, tested and proven for over 30 years.

Do you fix your canopies directly onto tarmac?

No, all canopies are fixed on to concrete pads or bases as the structures can lift out from the ground if not fixed into a suitable concrete base due to the uplift created by wind acting on the roof area.
