Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need support structure in place for these canopies?
We can provide a system whether structure will be completed by others, or you need a ground-up solution. Contact us for more details.
What glazing colors are available?
Standard colors include clear, white, ice white, blue, green, bronze, and refl. gray, with custom colors also available. Contact us for more information on color options.
How do these systems compare to glass canopies?
Polycarbonate glazing is significantly lighter than comparable glass glazing, allowing for more design versatility and less required structure, and is also highly impact resistant.
Are there standard configurations for Briteway® canopy systems?
We custom design Briteway® canopies to meet your needs - from single slope designs to curved systems whose clearspan design allows for more uninterrupted space below the glazing for a comfortable pedestrian environment.
How much do your canopy systems cost?
Because our systems are custom built to your specific project needs, costs per square feet can vary depending on structure, design configuration, glazing and finish colors and more. Contact our sales team for additional information and to request a quote.
