• Canopy with glass material must be more severe than polycarbonate material, therefore make sure the glass is mounted on the frame canopy firmly bound and all the corners are locked in order to avoid the risk of loose and falling.

In addition to using four-column structure, canopy frame can also be made using a hanging structure called a cantilever. This structure allows the canopy installed by hanging without support, the canopy will be installed on one or more walls. Meskpiun hanging without support but does not reduce the strength of the canopy, because the materials used to use a material that is light on the roof frame and cover.
