Product and Service Comparison Checklist –V1.7 LU060122

The Able Canopies Story Just over 18 years ago, we had a vision to offer a comprehensive range of quality and cost effective canopies to the commercial sector. This set us on our journey to be "The Canopy Experts" who could offer the largest range of weather protection solutions in the UK. At the beginning of our business we worked mainly with schools and nurseries, supplying wall mounted canopies to create playground shelters and outdoor classrooms. However we knew that our canopies could also make a difference in many other sectors and so, as our range expanded to incorporate free standing canopies, we also began working with other sectors including healthcare, retail and hospitality, local authorities, and architects and contractors.

Throughout our journey we have always held true to our core values that our customers should receive the best possible products and service, and with this in mind we adopted cutting edge 3D design software early on in the company's lifetime to enable us to create stunning structures which are also functional and adaptable. This also allows us to create bespoke, unique structures and we now have a dedicated Design Team who can turn ideas and hand drawings or CAD drawings into creative and workable solutions.

Over the years we have incorporated a wide range of materials into our range allowing us to create canopies constructed from a variety of material including steel, Glulam timber and aluminium, all of which can be fitted with a wide range of roofing options including polycarbonate and tensile fabric. And as our expertise has grown so has our business, with 3 offices across the UK on hand to help customers with all their shade and shelter needs. Still a family business at heart, Able Canopies has grown from a team of 3 to over 20 employees, and it won't be long before we employ another 20!

As "The Canopy Experts" we are constantly reviewing our products and service to ensure we exceed our customers' expectations from initial contact right though to installation and beyond. So you can rest assured that by working with Able Canopies you will not only benefit from our expertise but also receive a service and product of the highest quality.

DEFERRED INSTALLATION If the buyer or the buyer’s agent delays installation for any reason after a signed order has been placed, the buyer must pay at least half of the agreed amount no later than 14 days after the original agreed installation date so as to offset the sellers material costs and labour costs incurred during manufacture of the bespoke goods.

LAW OF CONTRACT The order on acceptance, will be deemed to be an English Contract governed by English Law.
