Archgola’s new gable profile creates a seamless transition between roof and canopy for this Ashburton home

Having recently refreshed their product line to include a gable profile, Archgola were perfectly positioned to deliver the desired solution.

“We have recently added gable-shaped roofs to our Archgola Linear canopy range. It was perfect timing for these clients,” Katrina explains. “Because every roof line has unique gradients, we customise all designs to suit the property, as is the case with this home. We were able to accurately match the roof’s gradient, creating an elegant transition between the existing roof and the canopy. The canopy has an overall span of 24 square metres.”

To complement the home’s palette, the clients selected a Blue/Grey polycarbonate roofing with a Dulux Protexture Monument powder coat for the canopy’s aluminium and steel frame.

“The polycarbonate roofing provides excellent UV protection and shields from wind, rain, hail, and snow — which was important for this Ashburton property located in a snow zone. We offer three tint options with varying degrees of light transmission and heat reduction, lowering glare and helping to maintain a comfortable temperature on hot summer days. Dulux’s Protexture range is ideal for the metal frame as it is scratch-resistant and doesn’t show fingerprints, which helps to keep the canopy looking good as new.” 

The client is also planning to add some outdoor blinds to the canopy, creating a sheltered space to enjoy their garden year-round, Katrina explains. 

“Archgola will custom make the blinds to fit their space, and the client has the option of five ThermaShade mesh tints at 5% opening, or a clear PVC solution.”

A Cook’s Beach batch has also welcomed the addition of gable solution. The canopy has doubled the living space at the holiday home and matched the converted garage’s gable profile, creating a delightful addition to the property.

“All Archgola projects are assigned a dedicated Archgola Licensee who manages the project from start to finish, ensuring the client’s vision is executed perfectly,” Katrina says. “Each project starts with a client meeting to understand the brief, followed by a design quote. The high standard of Archgola’s professional installation process is well regarded by clients, and a real point of difference for the business. Dealing with the same person throughout the project means our clients receive all the care and attention they need, and they can trust that the installation will be completed to the highest quality.”
