The process involved in the manufacturing of GRP Front Door canopies begins with the making of a wooden mould. This mould replicates the external look of the canopy and allows for distinctive design elements that add a realistic feel to the final product. The mould is then layered with a mixture of resin and sheets of glass fibre which bond to produce a very strong finished door canopy.

When we told them we put the porch on, all of them made the statement that they did not notice it was a new addition and fit into the house perfectly.” Real windows were used instead of three season porch windows which also have molding around them to match the existing home’s windows.

You should begin by listing what you want from your porch. For example, do you want it to provide covered storage? Or perhaps your house is looking rather two-dimensional and you feel a porch could be the solution? Would you like your porch to be able to accommodate seating? Would an enclosed porch in which to throw off outdoor clothes and shoes be more practical? Generally speaking, a porch can be built without building regulations if its base is under 3 square metres.
