ColdShine Front Door Canopy Outdoor Awning 120 X 80 cm Window Rain Shelter Cover with Polycarbonate Board and Aluminium Frame for Front Back Door Porch (White)

I ordered these to give some added protection over my back door. I was very happy when, despite making two orders, they both arrived together in a good quality package. Fitting was simple once the final position had been decided and the full assembly was finicky in places but generally simple enough given a bit of thought. All items in the porches are of sound Contruction and I am just waiting to see how they hold up to West coast Scotland weather. I already have had one of the flat porches on my shed and it's proved to be solid so hopefully these will be just the same.

Everything needed to assemble and fix was included in the pack, and although it felt a bit flimsy when unpacked, once erected it is sturdy and works well.

It's only 5cm shorter than the dimensions described (120cm is outside of the brackets), but I nearly bought the 100cm version which would not have cleared the drip cast thing above the door and would have made fitting it much more complicated. It's a standard outside door and I recommend nothing shorter than the 120cm based on my experience. Fitting is not difficult if you have an assistant, but sliding the panels into the plastic joining strip is difficult. As another reviewer said you need a lubricant (I had some silicon spray) and carefully applied but serious force to slide them in. Fitting the assembled panels into the brackets is simple. It wouldn't withstand a serious storm but my door is relatively sheltered. Good for the money.

I was a bit sceptical when purchasing but i am now impressed with the product.A little bit fiddly to put together but solid once done.Would recommend great product.I guess we'll just have to wait and see how it goes over time.

Faff to assemble. Slightly easier when I noticed (and removed) a protective film on both sides of the large corrugated plastic sheet that forms the canopy. But still a pig to get both slotted into the tight channels in the long strip that joins them. The strip is flexible so hard to push, and the corrugated sheets are easily damaged so you really don't want to force them as hard as you need to. Soapy water helped, but not not much. For all that, once its together and enclosed (more easily) in its edge pieces and side frames it feels quite sturdy. It comes with 4 x sleeved expansion bolts to fix it to a masonry wall - so be armed with a decent hammer drill! The instructions (just diagrams) didn't say what size hole the bolts need so I assumed (correctly I think) that they needed a 10mm masonry drill bit - and had to buy one. The expansion bolts were a snug fit in those 10mm holes so all seemed well. But when I tightened them (socket or spanner needed) instead of wedging themselves tightly in the (breeze block) wall 3 of the 4 continued to turn. So now I have a fairly nice looking canopy just about fixed to the wall, waiting for a strong gust of wind to do its worst.... . Guess I'll have to try and remove the partially wedged bolts and see why they aren't gripping, and maybe buy some better ones. PS. As others have said, getting this on the wall is a two person job unless you are an octopus who's handy with spanners.

Didn’t know what to expect when I ordered it but after a bit of messing about putting it together and fixing it to the wall it looks brilliant and have had some really good comments about it.Only draw back is that it is very fiddly and you need 4 hands so just be mindful.I would definitely recommend it though.

Great product and easy to install Only came with three screws though not four as neededStill waiting for last screw from. Suppliers so lucky my friend had a spare we used instead

Easy to put together. Tip put the plugs in first and tighten them until the plugs are secure. Then unscrew the bolts and fit the canopy. Makes it easier and quicker to secure it to the wall. Looks great really pleased with it.
