Post-Free Cantilever Canopies

Post-Free Cantilever Canopies

When posts are not an option — a drive-thru lane, an accessible entry path, a narrow sidewalk, a loading area vehicles have to reach — a cantilever canopy carries its own load back to the wall and leaves the ground completely clear. Ours are pre-engineered extruded aluminum, powder-coated, and custom-fabricated to your projection and width.

Cantilever Canopy FAQs

What does the wall need to support it? The attachment method depends on your wall construction — masonry, tilt-up, stud-framed and steel all get different anchoring. Send us photos and we will spec it.

How far can a cantilever project? Considerably further than most people expect, but the limit depends on width, wind zone and wall condition together. Call 1-800-AWNINGS with your dimensions.

Is it stronger than a post-supported canopy? Differently engineered rather than stronger — the load path changes. Both are rated for their application; the cantilever simply moves the support out of your way.
