DDA Polycarbonate Door Canopies

Our DDA polycarbonate canopies give accessible entrances deep, sheltered cover in a lightweight, maintenance-free material. At 1200mm deep, they leave room to approach and open the door out of the rain, whether you're in a wheelchair, using a mobility aid or pushing a buggy. Choose the curved Type A or the flat Type E, both made to measure in North Yorkshire. For a glass finish, see our DDA glass canopies, or the whole DDA range.

Sized for accessible entrances
Both models are 1500mm wide and 1200mm deep, giving a sheltered space in front of the door for people who need more room or more time to get inside.

Curved or flat
The Type A has a curved profile that sheds water cleanly; the Type E is flat for a more modern, minimal line.

Light, tough and UV-stable
Polycarbonate is shatter-resistant, much lighter than glass and UV-stable, so it stays clear in sunlight. It needs very little maintenance.

Part of a compliant entrance
A canopy is one part of an accessible entrance. Approach routes, door widths, thresholds and landings all play a part too, so check the full requirements for your building with your designer or building control.

Frequently asked questions

How big are the DDA polycarbonate canopies?
Both the Type A and Type E are 1500mm wide and 1200mm deep. Made-to-measure sizes are available on request.
Curved or flat - which should I choose?
The curved Type A sheds water cleanly and softens the line above the door. The flat Type E has a more modern, minimal look. Both give the same depth of cover.
Why polycarbonate rather than glass?
Polycarbonate is lighter and shatter-resistant, while still letting daylight through. If you'd prefer glass, see our DDA glass canopies.
Does a canopy on its own make my entrance compliant?
No. A canopy helps, but compliance depends on the whole entrance, including approach, door, threshold and landing. Check the requirements for your building with your designer or building control.
