Installation tips

Check that the fixing wall is load-bearing and in good condition before drilling. The weight of 10 kg requires solid fixings in a load-bearing wall (concrete, solid brick or concrete block). Use wall plugs suited to the wall material and the load to be supported.

Two people are recommended for installing the canopy. If you wish to add the FAUBEL side panel for lateral protection, plan its installation at the same time for a consistent result and to avoid a second round of drilling.

Maintenance and protection

Anodised or lacquered aluminium requires no special treatment after installation. Cleaning 1 to 2 times a year with clear 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.

Cellular polycarbonate should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth or a non-abrasive sponge. Avoid direct pressure washing on the panel to prevent forcing the seals. For limescale deposits, use diluted white vinegar. The panel is UV-resistant but may slightly yellow after 10 to 15 years of direct exposure – this is normal and does not affect its mechanical properties.

Frequently asked questions

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

The Woodup retro range includes several models: the BOUBON (arc shape, 158 x 90 x 40 cm) is the main model in the range with its characteristic rounded shape. The ECHARMEAUX (120 or 160 cm, with gutter) and the ONCINS (without gutter, plunging profile) are other variants. The BOUBON stands out for its arc shape and its compatibility with the FAUBEL side panel.

What is the FAUBEL side panel for and is it compulsory?

The FAUBEL side panel is an optional accessory that fits to the side of the BOUBON canopy to provide lateral protection for the entrance. It is not compulsory – the BOUBON works perfectly on its own. The FAUBEL is useful if your entrance is exposed to wind-driven rain from the side, or if you wish to create a more enclosed sheltered space in front of the door.

Is the BOUBON canopy suitable for an old stone facade?

Yes, the retro range is specifically designed for traditional stone, brick or rustic render facades. Its arc design complements this type of architecture. However, check the strength of the stone wall for the fixings – some old stones require special wall plugs or the involvement of a professional.

Does the BOUBON canopy have an integrated gutter?

The available information does not explicitly specify whether the BOUBON has a gutter. Contact WoodUp before ordering to confirm this point if water drainage is an important criterion for your installation.

What load can the fixing wall support for a 10 kg canopy?

A 10 kg canopy with a depth of 90 cm generates a significant tipping moment on the fixings. The wall plugs must be sized to support this dynamic load (wind in addition to the static weight). On a concrete or solid brick wall, well-anchored M8 or M10 wall plugs are suitable. On hollow concrete blocks, use special expansion or injection anchors.
