Features
Enjoy the outdoor season for longer with our strong prefabricated patio cover veranda. This premium veranda is manufactured in Germany to the highest standards, so you are assured of quality and its why we offer all our customers a 10-year warranty.
The upright posts are sleek and strong 110mm x 110mm low-maintenance, durable aluminium and is built to last all seasons. You can screw the uprights directly to the floor thanks to the supplied U-plate foundations. These are lightweight surface mounted metal anchors that can be bolted or screwed to concrete, slabs or timber platform.
The Veranda Plus is fitted with two roof options – a sheet of thick 16mm opal polycarbonate (milky white yet sun permeable, giving you a soft, even light on the patio) or transparent clear polycarbonate for light and sun protection, or 8mm laminated glass for a more luxurious option with maximum light.
This is a strong structure and has been tested for snow load of 135 kg/m² and wind load of 25 m/s.
The Veranda Plus has an integrated rainwater drainage system whereby rainwater is drained off through the front of the uprights. The gutter is 100mm high and are very stable, with 3mm thick aluminum.

Planning permission is not required as a Veranda is not a room and can be classed as a removable structure.
The roof has a wall-plate profile that is screwed to the house wall (please see our installation video in this section).
For dry/pebble-dashed walls, you would simply scrape off any loose pebble where the wall plate is to be fitted. After fitting the plate, a silicone seal can then be applied to the wall to cover any gaps between the pebble and wall profile.
Note: Wall fixings are NOT included, they must be purchased separately because each situation requires different fixings and depends on the substrate or construction to which it needs to be affixed. Always seek advice from a specialist building supplier about what is required in your particular situation and only use stainless steel fixings.
Yes, it is no problem to fix the veranda but it must be fixed directly to the masonry of the house so there is no weight bearing on the insulation.
It is recommended to purchase some countersunk concrete screws from your local hardware store, these will go straight through the insulation to fix the veranda wall plate into the original blockwork.
See here for an example of what you need (7.5 x 180mm screws). These are 180mm so assuming that your insulation is 100mm this will give you 80mm into the masonry, if your insulation is thicker then just simply order longer screws.
Ideally, the patio would always be laid after the Veranda, so that the paving can be cut around the veranda posts to leave a nice finish.
This product has been tested for wind speed at 90km/h.
The veranda has robust and heavy upright posts of 110m x 110m.
Wind should not be an issue for your veranda if it is fixed square and plumb to the house wall so that the roof sheets fit correctly. Installation of the veranda with concrete foundation pads ensures additional security against tough weather.
The roof is 100% waterproof, however with no side panels there will always be the possibility of rain coming in the sides depending upon the wind direction.
Temperature changes and moisture in the air can cause dew or condensation to appear outside and inside the veranda. This is normal and does not mean the veranda is leaking.

- Dimensions: 102 x 102 x 50mm.
- This is a post anchor bracket designed to allow the verandas vertical posts to be fastened on top of decking, concrete, slabs, and other similar foundations.
- These are lightweight and easy to use and perfect for when you don’t need to dig into an existing base.
- Screws will be supplied with the main veranda kit for the post fixings.
- Specialist screws will need sourcing depending on the surface of your base.
2A. Concrete Foundation With Drainage
- Dimensions: 220 x 220 x 300mm. Also includes 2500mm Drainage Pipe & 90 Degree Bend Piece.
- This is a concrete foundation that has drainage outlets already installed within the structure, used where a footing is required below ground. This is a concrete pack that will come with concrete footings without drainage (2B).
- The concealed downpipe in the veranda’s upright post simply connects to the pipe in this concrete foundation base. You can then connect your drainage to the foundation. This will allow rainwater from the veranda gutter to drain from inside the upright post and exit through the foundation into a pipe connected to your existing surface water system.
2B. Concrete Foundation Without Drainage
- Dimensions: 100 x 100 x 930mm
- This is a concrete foundation without drainage used where a footing is required below ground. If you select the concrete foundation option for this product, you will get a concrete foundation with drainage (2A) along with 1 or 2 concrete of this footing, depending on your veranda size and the number of uprights.
- The concrete foundation slides inside the verandas aluminium post which is then inserted into a hole in the ground at a suitable depth.
- Once the veranda is levelled and squared you can secure the foundation by pouring postcrete into the hole, adding water, and allowing it to set.
