Suspended Metal Canopies
At Bensalem Metal we can fabricate and install (if needed) metal canopies of various designs.
Our pre-engineered suspended systems have a clean look from above and underneath.
0.050″ Clear Anodized aluminum interlocking soffit panels create clean modern appearance of a composite metal ceiling at a fraction of the price. Width of the panels can be changed to achieve universal seam distribution under the metal canopies. Other soffit colors, materials and designs are also available.
From above the metal canopies are covered with mechanically seamed Englert A1301 standing seam roofing system. It adds superior protection from the elements. The roof can have different options of internal gutter to properly drain all water. Roofing on the metal canopies will carry 35 years finish warranty along with weather-tightness warranty if required.
Exterior lights can be easily added during installation if needed as all metal canopies are designed to be completely waterproof.
How Hard Is It to Install Our Suspended Metal Canopy?
While some common skills are needed it is not very complicated as the system comes with all accessories required for a clean successful installation. Here is quick overview of the process.
- Metal Frame is fastened to the wall. Some parts of it can be disassembled for convenience.
- Metal canopy suspension wires are tightened to keep the frame level.
- Pre-cut aluminum soffit panels are installed inside the frame J-channels. Minor adjustments need to be made with first and last panels.
- Gutter is placed inside and the hole is cut in soffit ceiling to accept the downspout outlet.
- All perimeter flashings of roofing system are installed.
- Counter flashing is installed and sealed to the wall for a watertight connection between finished metal canopy and building envelope.
- Downspout is connected to an outlet. All protection films are removed which completes the metal canopy installation process.
