Commercial Canopies — Frequently Asked Questions
What are commercial canopies?
Commercial canopies are permanent or semi-permanent structures designed to provide weather protection, shade, covered access, or protected operational space at commercial, industrial, institutional, government, and public facilities. Steel commercial canopies may be suspended from a building, supported by posts or columns, or designed as freestanding structures.
What types of commercial canopies does FCP manufacture?
FCP manufactures suspended entrance, walkway, window, and loading dock canopies as well as post-supported canopies, freestanding canopies, architectural canopies, large-span shelters, and custom steel canopy structures.
Does FCP design custom commercial steel canopies?
Yes. FCP can design and engineer commercial steel canopies around project-specific dimensions, structural requirements, architectural objectives, site conditions, building codes, and intended applications.
Can FCP provide canopies for existing buildings?
Yes. FCP provides commercial canopy systems for both new construction and existing buildings. Existing-building applications can be engineered around the building’s structural conditions, attachment requirements, available space, clearances, and project requirements.
What is the difference between suspended and post-supported canopies?
Suspended canopies attach to a building without exterior support posts, helping maintain clear space beneath the canopy. Post-supported canopies use columns or posts for structural support and can be used where building conditions, canopy dimensions, loads, or project requirements favor a supported design.
Are FCP commercial canopies prefabricated?
FCP uses prefabrication and modular construction where appropriate to reduce field fabrication, installation labor, and disruption at the project site. The degree of prefabrication depends on the canopy design and project requirements.
Who does FCP work with on commercial canopy projects?
FCP works with general contractors, architects, engineers, developers, construction professionals, facility managers, manufacturers, building owners, municipalities, government agencies, and other organizations requiring engineered commercial steel canopy systems.
Does FCP provide engineering, fabrication, delivery, and erection?
FCP’s capabilities include design collaboration, engineering, estimating, detailing, steel fabrication, coatings, delivery, and erection depending on the project’s scope and requirements.
Need a Commercial Canopy for Your Next Project?
From suspended entrance and walkway canopies to loading dock covers, post-supported structures, freestanding shelters, and completely custom steel canopy systems, FCP can engineer and fabricate a solution around your building, application, and project requirements.
