Walkway Covers

It is common to have plenty of paths to get to where you are going, especially on a university campus, for example, or other complex of buildings. In order to provide a better environment for employees and visitors, many times the organization will erect a walkway cover on some of these paths that are more heavily used. Our team at MASA Architectural Canopies can provide you with several different walkway cover ideas with our existing lines of canopies. But we can also work with you to develop something unique that compliments your brand and organization. These are simple, passive structures that provide important benefits for everyone that uses them. Contact us today to learn about the different options that you have for your walkway covers.

Important Reasons to Add Walkway Covers

It could be intense sunshine that feels like it is baking you, or it might be a pounding rain that would quickly soak anyone. Protection from the elements is one of the key reasons that walkway covers are added to properties. Especially if the walkway is a significant distance, even passing over a street or highway, having a walkway cover provides this important protection to those using the walkway. And the walkway itself is likely easier and faster to use than trying to use another mode of transport.

For some organizations such as churches, hospitals, hotels, and other venues, a walkway cover provides an option for optimizing drop-off areas. In these cases, walkway covers provide double duty by giving shelter for loading and unloading, but they can also function as covered walkways that lead out to a parking area as well.

Lower Maintenance Costs for Properties

Covered walkways are not only a benefit for people coming into and leaving the building; they can also help lower maintenance costs for properties that have walkway covers in place. In colder climates, covered walkways usually require less maintenance for clearing snow and ice. They can also help to limit damage to entrance ways as well from the weather. And indoors, the covered walkway helps to limit the amount of dirt, water, snow, and other debris from coming inside and needing to be regularly cleaned.

We have worked with many different organizations such as hotels, hospitals, and municipal buildings to add walkway covers to their different paths. These added enhancements elevate the experience of everyone working and visiting the buildings.
