Installation tips

Choose the size according to the width of your front door: the 120 cm version is suitable for doors up to 90 cm wide, and the 160 cm version for doors up to 130 cm. The fixing centre distance of 80 cm must be measured precisely above the door.

The fixing wall must be load-bearing and in good condition. Position and fix the wall brackets using the wall plugs suited to your surface (concrete, brick or breeze block). Ensure the gutter is properly aligned to allow smooth drainage. Two people recommended for fitting.

Maintenance and protection

Anodised or powder-coated aluminium requires no special treatment after installation. Cleaning 1 to 2 times a year with clean water and mild soap is sufficient to maintain the appearance of the structure. Avoid abrasive or solvent-based products that could scratch the lacquer or anodised coating.

Clean the multiwall polycarbonate with a soft damp cloth or non-abrasive sponge. Avoid directing a pressure washer at the sheet so as not to put strain on the seals. For limescale deposits, use diluted white vinegar. The sheet is UV-resistant but may yellow slightly over time in direct sunlight – this is normal and does not affect its mechanical properties.

Frequently asked questions

Which size should I choose between the 120 cm and 160 cm version?

Choose the 120 cm version for a standard door up to 90 cm wide – it extends approximately 15 cm beyond each side. Opt for the 160 cm version for wider doors or if you want more protection at the sides. The 160 cm version also shelters someone waiting outside the door.

What is the difference between the ECHARMEAUX canopy and the BOUBON canopy in the retro range?

Both belong to the Woodup retro range. The BOUBON (160 x 90 x 26 cm) has a distinctive arched shape, while the ECHARMEAUX has a different retro profile. Both models can be fitted with the FAUBEL side panel for lateral protection. Both are available in white or black with an integrated gutter.

Is the ECHARMEAUX canopy suitable for a stone or brick façade?

Yes, this is precisely the use case for which this retro range is designed. Its traditional design harmonises with stone, brick or rustic rendered façades. However, check that the stone or brick wall is strong enough to support the wall fixings — use specialist stone or brick plugs depending on the nature of the substrate.

Does a professional need to install the ECHARMEAUX canopy?

Installation is accessible to a DIYer with basic wall-drilling experience. The kit includes screws and wall plugs. Two people are recommended for fitting. If your wall is made of old stone or an uncertain material, it is advisable to call in a professional for the fixings.

Is the integrated gutter effective at preventing splashing?

Yes, the integrated gutter channels water towards the lateral ends of the canopy, preventing direct runoff in front of the door. For optimal efficiency, ensure the gutter is slightly tilted towards the water outlets and clean it annually to avoid blockages from leaves.
