Benefits of Cantilever Shade Canopy Structures

As a beam-supported structure, cantilever shade canopies are perfect for covered parking, offering ideal solutions for spaces without obstructions. Some of the benefits of cantilevers include:

Allowing for design versatility: Cantilever shade canopy structures are available in various fabrics and steel colors. You can match every aspect with your brand's identity or your team's colors for a recognizable design.
Increasing marketability: An investment in shade structures can increase your property's value by adding desirable parking locations visible to customers from far away.
Saving additional space: Cantilevers create freestanding, unobstructed spaces without any columns, posts, or additional supportive bracing in the spots.
Shading areas from sunlight: Harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays increase temperatures in your vehicle's interior, making it uncomfortable until the air conditioner cools it down. UV rays can also fade your vehicle's interior as well as cause the exterior paint to fade and peel over time. Cantilevers can help limit vehicle exposure to sunlight.
Protecting vehicles from precipitation: Hail, rain, sleet, and other inclement weather conditions can cause damage to vehicles such as dings and dents.
Providing durable, cost-effective options: The strong material of our cantilevers are long-lasting compared to wood or lighter framing materials.

Applications of a Cantilever Shade Structure

People choose cantilevers for their durability to withstand weather conditions and versatility to create covered parking in most spaces. For suitable parking options, cantilever shade canopy structures work well for:

Car dealerships: Cantilevers can protect the inventory on your lot as the weather changes and the market fluctuates. In the warmer months, your customers can browse options in cooler spaces that keep the vehicles in ready-to-sell conditions. Plus, low maintenance and added security lets you focus on the appearance and the performance of your cars, trucks, and SUVs.
Airport parking: Offering parking under cantilever shade structures lets you offer premium parking that helps protect vehicles from UV-rays, rain, and other inclement weather. You can also put cantilevers at car rental lots or loading and unloading areas for continued convenience.
Corporate parking: By providing covered parking, you can make it easier for drivers to exit your lot promptly. They avoid scraping ice off their vehicle or waiting for the interior to cool down on a hot day. You can show your employees and your customers that you care about their comfort and convenience.
Rooftop parking: With cantilever shade canopy structures, you can easily add additional covered parking to your rooftop parking lot. You won't need to put in additional supports for a full roof, and cantilevers allow you to select colors for an aesthetically appealing look.
