“Let me say a few words about AVC Build. I’m extremely satisfied with the overall craftsmanship and quality of the work. The attention to detail is clear in every aspect, from the clean lines to the solid construction. The aluminium structure feels incredibly durable and well-finished, giving the entire space a modern and high-end look. What really stands out is how sturdy and precisely installed everything is — it not only looks great but also feels built to last. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the result. Highly recommended.”
“Installation took 2 days but the result is great. Will definitely contact you in the future to install a canopy with side panels on our balcony. Special thanks to the manager Anton for being with me every step of the way.”
“We had AVC Build supply and install a combined bicycle and motorcycle shelter for our factory yard. Pricing was competitive, they recommended a sensible roof with side walls, and handled everything on site from the survey to the install. The team were punctual, courteous, and easy to deal with. Delighted with the result and the service.”
“Very pleased with the quality of the canopy. Special thanks to the manager Anton for advice and help even during off-hours.”

Frequently Asked Questions About Aluminium Canopies
How much does an aluminium canopy cost in Ireland?
The price depends on the width, projection, attachment type, roof material and additional equipment. Use the calculator above for an initial estimate. The final price is confirmed after the dimensions, site conditions, delivery access and installation requirements have been reviewed.
What types of aluminium canopies do you supply?
AVC Build supplies made-to-measure entrance canopies, balcony canopies, staircase covers, bicycle shelters, smoking shelters, BBQ roofs, public shelters, covered walkways and other residential or commercial canopy systems. For larger patio structures, see our aluminium pergolas. For vehicle shelters, see our aluminium carports.
Are AVC Build aluminium canopies made to measure?
Yes. Width, projection, height, roof fall, post positions, wall connection, colour, drainage and optional equipment are confirmed individually before production.
What roof materials are available for an aluminium canopy?
Depending on the structure and intended use, fixed-roof options can include laminated safety glass, polycarbonate and trapezoidal sheet with fleece. The most suitable option depends on the required appearance, daylight, shade, dimensions and budget.
Can a canopy be wall-mounted or freestanding?
Yes. Many canopy systems can be configured as wall-mounted or freestanding structures. The suitable arrangement depends on the building, dimensions, supporting layout, fixing conditions and intended use.
Can side walls, glazing or lighting be added later?
Compatible modular elements can often be added later after the existing structure and proposed addition have been checked. Options include fixed side walls, glazing, sliding glass systems, privacy panels, lighting, heating and shading. See our extension elements for available options.
What is the difference between a door canopy and a larger entrance canopy?
A compact door canopy primarily provides overhead protection immediately above the doorway. A larger made-to-measure entrance canopy can extend farther across the entrance area and may include support posts, side walls, glazing, lighting or additional weather protection. See our front door canopy page for dedicated entrance options.
How long does canopy installation take?
Installation time depends on the dimensions, roof material, fixing method, foundations, access and additional equipment. Straightforward residential projects can often be completed within a few days, while larger or more complex installations require additional time. The expected schedule is confirmed before installation.
Does an aluminium canopy include rainwater drainage?
Rainwater management is planned as part of the structure. Depending on the selected canopy system, gutters and downpipes can be integrated into the aluminium profiles. The final drainage route is confirmed during design.
Do I need planning permission for a canopy in Ireland?
Planning requirements depend on the property, dimensions, height, location and level of enclosure. Where there is any uncertainty, the property owner should confirm the applicable requirements with the relevant local authority or a qualified planning professional before work begins.
