Smoking Shelters

Smoking Shelters

Fordingbridge's curved roof structures provide an excellent solution for pubs, restaurants, cafés looking to provide smoking shelters for their customers in light of the new UK smoking ban. Our structures are also ideal for employers looking to provide employee smoking shelters and any other UK businesses needing outdoor smoking shelters from the 1st of July 2007. We excel in finding bespoke solutions to suit individual sites but also provide a budget-conscious off the shelf structure with prices starting from £4,100 + VAT for a self-assembly smoking shelter 5 metres by 5 metres in size.

Canopies and awnings can be built in a variety of shapes to suit the site, providing solutions for customers looking for commercial smoking shelters, employee smoking shelters, and outdoor smoking shelters for pubs, clubs and restaurants.

Our outdoor canopies, awnings and walkways are supported by either laminated timber or steel frame works. Steel frames have a hot dip galvanised steel finish as standard, with RAL/BS paint finish also available.

Fabric roofs – guaranteed for five years - allow for 60% light transmission whilst still giving 95% UV protection. The triple wall polycarbonate is guaranteed for ten years. Both coverings are fire retardant.

We also offer a tension fabric design and construction service, providing a range of elegant design solutions offering long life structures with a lightweight appearance and minimal structural support.

The structure is a steel framework with hot-dip galvanised or RAL/BS painted finish, plus fabric membrane offering durability of 10 to 20 years for the PVC membrane, to 25-30 years with the PTFE membrane coating.

Shapes include: cantilevered, hypar, umbrella and double conic. We are continually exploring the application’s possibilities.

Full building regulations calculations and CDM package are available with all structures.
