FAQs
Does this canopy come with roof tiles?
No, the Snowdon Timber Porch Canopy is supplied as a timber frame kit, and you will need to purchase your own roof tiles to finish the project.
Are the wall fixings included?
No, you must source appropriate wall fixings depending on the construction material of your exterior wall, such as brick, stone, or timber frame.
Can I paint this canopy?
Yes, it is highly recommended to paint or stain the timber canopy to match your home and to provide an extra layer of protection against the elements.
Is this suitable for all door types?
The canopy is designed to fit most standard doorways, but we recommend measuring your specific door width and the space above the door to ensure a proper fit before assembly.
How do I maintain the wood?
Apply a suitable exterior wood treatment or paint immediately after installation, and inspect the wood annually for signs of moisture damage or wear.
Troubleshooting
Canopy feels unstable after installation
Verify that all structural joints are fully tightened and that the wall fixings are correctly anchored into the structural substrate of the house.
Water pooling on the flat roof
Ensure the canopy was installed with a slight pitch or that the roof tiles were laid correctly to facilitate proper drainage away from the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation of the Snowdon Timber Porch Canopy requires basic carpentry tools and a level surface for mounting. Before starting, ensure your wall can support the weight of the timber structure.
- Measure the width of your doorway to ensure the canopy provides adequate coverage.
- Secure the wall brackets using appropriate heavy-duty masonry or timber fixings based on your wall type.
- Assemble the pre-drilled frame components following the provided instructions.
- Install the preferred roof tiles to ensure the structure is fully waterproof.
For maintenance, apply a high-quality wood preservative or exterior-grade paint shortly after installation. Periodically check the wall fixings annually to ensure they remain tight and inspect the timber for any signs of weathering that may require a fresh coat of sealant.
