Hamilton North School Archgola Pergola Canopies
By Archgola
Hamilton North School had a large classroom space with 16 wheelchair students and all their aids, the classroom was cramped and there was nowhere for the students to have their physiotherapy programmes carried out.
The installation of the Archgolas have given more flexibility to the classrooms and reduced the congestion within the rooms especially for the older students who at times require space away from the whole class and support workers.
With the addition of curtains the space can be used daily in all conditions which greatly benefits the students and allows more space within the classroom.

Archgola provides greater utilisation of space
“The reason for choosing to go with Archgola was that we had a large classroom space with 16 wheelchair students and all their aids. This meant the classroom was cramped and there was nowhere for the students to have their physiotherapy programmes carried out.
We looked at various options and settled on an Archgola as the structure would provide a large area that could be utilised in all weathers. With the addition of curtains the space can be used daily in all conditions which greatly benefits the students and allows more space within the classroom.
The installation of the Archgolas have given more flexibility to the classrooms and reduced the congestion within the rooms especially for the older students who at times require space away from the whole class and support workers.”

Outdoor canopy specialists for shade and shelter.
It was back in 1998 that the concept of Archgola™ originated here in New Zealand. With foresight and vision, not to mention engineering and design integrity, it didn’t take long until Archgola™ became the number one choice of canopies and shade solutions for New Zealanders.
In 2015, the demand for Archgola™ by New Zealanders all around the country saw the business move into its purpose-built facility on Auckland’s North Shore. Our in-house state-of-the-art powder coating operation and dedicated, highly skilled welding team means we have complete control over the production and quality of every Archgola™.
Archgola™ uses the best building code-compliant materials installed by our dedicated national licensee network. With increasing building and compliance costs, our Archgola™ commercial package provides an attractive, competitive and adaptable solution in the residential, education, sporting, commercial and hospitality sectors.
The Archgola™ team offer advice and support with design and compliance requirements.
Custom-designed solution.
Design:
- Our strength is in the versatility of the modular structure of the Archgola™ design. Our ability to cover a breadth of applications – from free-standing and adjoined to building structures, rectangular, square, corners, L-shaped and more- means we can create a solution to fit any project's practical and aesthetic needs.
- Archgola™ licensed installers care for all the engineering and council consent requirements; creating a weather protection zone for your home, business, and customers has never been easier.
- Our team is experienced in working with local authorities, education centres, and associations to ensure the design and build meet the requirements of local building codes and environmental conditions and the needs of the project management group.
Engineered:
- Design methods are certified by an independent structural engineer; each frame provides stability and structure for your Archgola™ to ensure it’s built to last.
- Our customised design concepts are drawn to engineering certification, meet Building Code NZ3604 (IL1), and align with AS/NZ1170 Structural Design Standards.
- This means canopies can be installed in high to very high wind zones.
Roofing:
- Canopies are as watertight as possible using flashings and guttering. Options for roofing material include a variation of polycarbonate, web glass and colour steel roofing, depending on the warmth and light transfer required.
Enclosing the space:
- Outdoor curtains provide extra weather protection. We offer a commercial-quality curtain system, Ezi Guide, with blinds made of mesh or clear PVC. This provides a hard-wearing solution ideal for residential and commercial applications.
Manufacturer:
- Archgola™ steel frames are top quality and durable. The galvanised tubular frame is built to last. We develop our canopy frames from scratch. New Zealand’s leading industrial tube manufacturer, Industrial Tube, makes steel tubes. The pre-galvanised tube is coiled and cut to precision, ensuring the strength required of the canopy frame.
- Hot-dip galvanised then powder-coated frames are also available—please ask your local Archgola™ licensee what is the preferred steel coating to suit your location or structure.
- Powder coating system add layers of protection to deliver a premium product with superior longevity outdoors and an attractive finish. This also means you can choose nearly any colour you like including bright colours for good visibility.
Build:
- The success of our extensive national network, both in the supply chain and with our Archgola™ Installation Agents, is founded on long-term relationships with highly skilled professionals. This has ensured our growth across the country.
