Cover Your Steel Building’s Bases with a Custom
Metallic Products Door Canopy

Metallic Products’ personnel door canopies are an easy, affordable and eye-pleasing way to ensure your metal buildings and the people who frequent them are covered. Not only do they provide a virtually maintenance-free way to keep team members and visitors protected against the elements, but they keep building systems and budgets in check.

Canopy covers above outdoor cooling units safeguard your systems against unnecessary wear, extending their overall lifespan. Meanwhile, a well-placed door canopy also decreases the amount of solar radiation able to enter through doors and windows, lowering energy costs and placing less stress on HVAC systems.

With a solid build and 16-gauge galvanized frame, Metallic Products’ personnel door canopies are built to last and engineered to stand up against extreme winds and snow/ice loads. And with a wide range of sizes, colors and finishes available — and both single- and double-door options, as well — it’s easy to customize your door canopies to suit your unique structure and aesthetic. Interested in additional building canopy options? Metallic Products offers lighted canopies, corner canopies and ice shield canopies, too.

Load Specifications

Wind loads shown are uniform loads on a 4′- 6″ wide canopy with 2 braces.

Wind loads calculated per ASCE 7-16 Section 30.11, using net pressure coefficients on attached canopies considering contributions from upper and lower surfaces.

Topographic factor, Kzt = 1.0
Wind directionality factor, Kd = 0.85
Ground elevation factor, Ke = 1.0
Mean canopy height, hc:
- Max 60′ above ground for 4′ Projection, Exposure — B
- Max 53′ above ground for 4′ Projection, Exposure — C
- Max 53′ above ground for 5′ Projection, Exposure — B
- Max 30′ above ground for 5′ Projection, Exposure — C
Mean building eave height, he:
- Max 60′ above ground for 4′ & 5′ Projections, Exposures — B & C

Snow loads shown are uniform loads on a 4′-6″ wide canopy with 2 braces. Snow loads shall be determined by engineer utilizing applicable codes and project-specific design criteria.

Depending on canopy width (10’-0” maximum), up to four hangers may be required per canopy section to achieve wind and snow loads.

NOTE: For more stringent loading requirements, custom engineering analysis is available upon request.

Use our Canopy Calculator to generate specifications based on load data, building codes, risk categories and building dimensions.
