Playground canopies in Whitefield

Playground canopies for Whitefield schools and nurseries are our core work, covering Unsworth, Sunny Bank and the Whitefield centre as well as neighbouring Prestwich, Bury and Radcliffe. Every canopy is made in the UK from powder-coated steel with a polycarbonate roof, engineered to the site and fitted around the school day, whether you need an EYFS shade area, a covered outdoor classroom or all-weather cover over the playground.

Playground canopies in Whitefield

Our core structure across Whitefield is a powder-coated steel playground canopy with a mono-pitch polycarbonate roof, engineered to the site and finished in your colours. From Ringley and Besses o' th' Barn, we work right across Whitefield. It gives schools and nurseries all-weather cover over play and social areas.

Early-years and nursery canopies in Whitefield

Playground shade sails in Whitefield

Where a Whitefield 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 Whitefield

Do you install playground canopies across Whitefield?

Yes. We design, manufacture and install playground canopies, early-years shade, outdoor classrooms and covered MUGA across Whitefield and the surrounding area, for schools, nurseries and councils.

Can you install during term time in Whitefield?

We plan Whitefield 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 Whitefield?

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 Whitefield planning or building-control officer needs.
