DURBIZE curved door canopy in aluminium and 4.5 mm multiwall polycarbonate. Measures 158 x 90 x 40 cm; available in white or black, with integrated gutters for effective drainage, screws and wall plugs included, and 80 cm between fixing centres. Effectively protects a standard front door up to 130 cm wide from rain and sun, extending approximately 14 cm beyond each side. Must be mounted on a concrete, brick or concrete-block wall; check its load-bearing capacity before installation.
DURBIZE curved canopy in aluminium and cellular polycarbonate
The DURBIZE is a contemporary door canopy made from aluminium profiles and 4.5 mm multiwall polycarbonate, available in white or black. Measuring 158 x 90 x 40 cm, it provides effective coverage for a standard front door up to 130 cm wide, with 80 cm between fixing centres.
Its curved arched shape gives it a clean profile suited to contemporary façades. The integrated gutters channel rainwater to the sides to prevent direct run-off in front of the door. Screws and wall plugs are included in the kit.

Installation advice
Before ordering, check that the fixing wall is load-bearing and in good condition (concrete, solid brick or breeze block). The fixing centres between the two fixing points is 80 cm — measure precisely the available space above your door before drilling. Use wall plugs suitable for the wall material (hammer-in plugs for concrete, expansion plugs for breeze block).
First fix the wall brackets level, then hang the canopy. Two people are recommended for installation. Check the slight forward tilt so that water drains correctly towards the gutters. Clean the gutters regularly to prevent blockages from leaves.
Maintenance and protection
Anodised or powder-coated aluminium requires no special treatment after installation. Cleaning once or twice 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 a non-abrasive sponge. Avoid directing a pressure washer at the panel, as this could strain the seals. For limescale deposits, use diluted white vinegar. The panel 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
What door width can the DURBIZE canopy cover?
At 158 cm wide, the DURBIZE canopy effectively covers a standard front door up to approximately 130 cm wide. On a 130 cm door, it extends approximately 14 cm beyond each side. For a wider door, see 190 cm models such as the ANCE canopy.
Is a load-bearing wall required to install this canopy?
Yes, a solid wall support is essential. The canopy must be fixed to a load-bearing wall in concrete, solid brick or breeze block — never to insulation, plaster alone or lightweight cladding. Before installation, check the wall resistance and the admissible load according to the wall plug manufacturer's specifications.
What is the difference between the DURBIZE canopy and the FONTMARTIN canopy?
Both are curved aluminium and polycarbonate door canopies, but the DURBIZE (158 x 90 x 40 cm) is taller and deeper than the FONTMARTIN (158 x 85 x 27 cm). The FONTMARTIN has a lower-profile appearance above the door. Both have an integrated gutter.
Are the fixings included in the DURBIZE kit?
Yes, screws and wall plugs are included in the kit. However, the supplied wall plugs are generic — adapt them according to your wall material (reinforced concrete, breeze block, brick) to ensure a secure fixing for the loads involved.
How do I maintain the polycarbonate on the DURBIZE canopy?
Clean the panel once or twice a year with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid directing a pressure washer at it or using abrasive sponges, which scratch polycarbonate. For limescale deposits, use diluted white vinegar. Polycarbonate may yellow slightly over time under intense UV exposure; this is normal and does not affect its strength.
