ASCLIER door canopy in stainless steel and cellular polycarbonate
The ASCLIER door canopy is manufactured in stainless steel and 3 mm cellular polycarbonate, available in two dimensions: 140 x 90 cm and 180 x 90 cm. The stainless steel guarantees corrosion resistance without treatment, including in coastal or damp environments. The transparent polycarbonate panel preserves the brightness of the entrance.
Clean contemporary design, centre spacing 80 cm, fixings included. Ideal for modern façades and exposed environments.

Key points
- ✓ Stainless steel: maximum corrosion resistance, without treatment or painting
- ✓ 2 dimensions: 140 or 180 cm to suit the width of the door
- ✓ Transparent panel: natural light preserved under the canopy
- ✓ Maintenance-free: stainless steel structure that does not rust, even by the sea
- ✓ Contemporary design: clean lines for modern façades
Installation advice
The centre spacing of 80 cm must be measured precisely above the door. The fixing wall must be load-bearing (concrete, brick, breeze block) - never fix to thermal insulation or lightweight cladding without checking the structural resistance. Use wall plugs suited to the wall material.
Two people are recommended for installation. Stainless steel can be slippery to handle - use gloves. Check the level after fixing the supports to ensure a straight installation.
Maintenance and protection
The galvanised or stainless steel structure is corrosion-resistant without any special treatment. An annual clean with clear water is sufficient for routine maintenance. In coastal or industrial environments (salty or polluted air), increase the frequency to twice a year and check for any rust spots on the fixings.
The acrylic panel should be cleaned with a soft damp cloth only - avoid abrasive products that scratch the surface. Inspect the fixing joints and gutter annually for optimal drainage.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the ASCLIER stainless steel canopy and the CABRUNAS galvanised steel canopy?
The ASCLIER in stainless steel resists corrosion better than the CABRUNAS in galvanised steel, particularly in coastal, damp or industrial environments. Stainless steel requires no treatment even after many years of exposure. The CABRUNAS is sufficient for standard use, but by the sea or in a very damp area, the ASCLIER is preferable. Both have the same size and the same panel thickness (3 mm).
Is the ASCLIER canopy compatible with an external thermal insulation (ETI) façade?
No, direct fixing to external thermal insulation is insufficient to support the weight of the canopy. The wall plugs must pass through the insulation and fix into the load-bearing wall behind. Special ETI wall plugs with a long shaft exist for this type of configuration - to be used with the precise insulation measurements of your façade.
Can the ASCLIER canopy be installed without calling on a tradesman?
Yes, installation is accessible to a DIYer with a drill, drill bits suited to the wall material, and a spirit level. The kit includes the fixings. Two people are recommended to hold the canopy during fixing. If your wall is made of uncertain material (old stone, rammed earth), consult a professional for the fixings.
Which size to choose between 140 cm and 180 cm for the ASCLIER canopy?
Choose according to the width of your entrance door. The 140 cm version is suitable for doors up to approximately 110 cm wide with a 15 cm overhang on each side. The 180 cm version is recommended for wider doors or if you wish to have greater lateral protection for visitors.
Does the 3 mm polycarbonate panel withstand snow and impacts?
The 3 mm cellular polycarbonate supports a moderate snow load. For regions with heavy snowfall, a thicker panel (6 mm as on the ESCRINET canopy) is preferable. In the event of heavy hail, the polycarbonate may become slightly marked but resists without breaking - unlike acrylic glass which is more fragile under impact.
