Playground canopies in St Albans
We design, make and install playground canopies for schools, nurseries and council play areas throughout St Albans, taking in Marshalswick, Fleetville and London Colney as well as nearby Harpenden and Hatfield. Each canopy is engineered to its site and manufactured in the UK from powder-coated steel, from all-weather cover over a primary playground to an EYFS shade area or a covered outdoor classroom.

Playground canopies in St Albans
Our core structure across St Albans is a powder-coated steel playground canopy with a mono-pitch polycarbonate roof, engineered to the site and finished in your colours. That takes in Verulamium, Marshalswick and Fleetville and the rest of St Albans. It gives schools and nurseries all-weather cover over play and social areas.

For nurseries and EYFS settings in St Albans, we install low-eaves, free-flow canopies that link the classroom to the outdoor area so children can move safely between the two in any weather. From Fleetville and Sopwell, we work right across St Albans.

Where a St Albans site needs sun and UV protection rather than an all-weather roof, we supply and tension playground shade sails over play, seating and early-years areas, sized and anchored to the space.

Playground canopy questions in St Albans
Do you install playground canopies across St Albans?
Yes. We design, manufacture and install playground canopies, early-years shade, outdoor classrooms and covered MUGA across St Albans and the surrounding area, for schools, nurseries and councils.
Can you install during term time in St Albans?
We plan St Albans installations around the school day and, where a project needs it, work in the school holidays so the playground is back in use for the new term. We confirm the programme once the design is signed off.
Do I need planning permission for a playground canopy in St Albans?
It depends on the size, the site and the setting. Many school and nursery canopies need planning permission and building-regulations approval, and we provide the drawings, structural calculations and specification your St Albans planning or building-control officer needs.
