Broxap were asked by BAM Construction Ltd to design a series of canopies to be installed within a confined area at Dolphin School in Bristol.

The canopies needed to make the most of the limited space whilst offering maximum space and a light and airy feel.

BAM Construction Ltd. chose Broxap as they were able to offer a single point as well as provide other elements to the new build such as door barriers and cycle parking elements.

Working closely with Architect and Contractor Broxap designed a series of monopitch canopies based around their Hartcliffe cantilever style canopy that would run throughout the school grounds.

To complement these canopies for the lower school Broxap used a timber Monopitch canopy. This gave the Early Years area a softer and more natural appeal.

Canopy roofs were clad in Multiwall Polycarbonate to give a good source of light through whilst also filtering harmful UV rays. There was also a glazed canopy at the front of the school offering to give a clear view of the sky from beneath.

Working in such a confined area was not a problem for Broxap who took all aspects from design of the canopies, to installation, to transportation and delivery on site on board from the initial design stage.

Broxap also provided a series of their Wardale Cycle and Scooter Shelters complete with lockable gates and also a series of stainless steel door barriers to the outside of the buildings entrances.
