What is the purpose of a front door canopy?

The main purpose of a front door canopy is to offer both protection and cover from the elements when you need it. For those sunny days, a front door canopy helps to fend off penetrating sunshine, while it also comes in handy for sheltering any friends and family from unwelcoming wind and rain.

Front door canopies can also have an aesthetic purpose to make your home or business seem more inviting, but the practical benefits are often the driving reason for homeowners making this purchase.

 

Do you need planning permission for a front door canopy?

No, generally you won’t need to worry about getting planning permission for UK canopies unless your front door canopy is a particularly large canopy or you’ve already added a significant amount to your property’s floorplan. Ultimately, canopies are considered extensions and they will therefore have set dimensions within the ‘permitted development’ allowance.

While planning permission is not typically required for a front door canopy, it’s always best to check to be on the safe side. It’s going to cost much less to check than it is to remove the front door canopy if it breaches the ‘permitted development’ allowance. If you’re ever unsure, you should always contact your local planning authority for more advice and guidance.
