Corner door canopies — bespoke

When the door sits in a corner — a returning façade, a street corner, a canted bay — the canopy has to follow two directions at once. It is the most technical exercise in the range, and the one where made-to-measure really earns its name.

The art of following the corner

A corner canopy cannot be ordered from a catalogue: it is calculated on the exact survey of your façade — open corner or canted bay, symmetrical return or not. The structure spreads the load onto brackets placed as tightly as possible, and the glazed covering follows the geometry without leaving a blind spot for the rain. It is drawing work before it is forge work.

When to choose it

Corner doors are common on street-corner blocks, courtyard angles and nineteenth-century houses with canted bays. Where a flat canopy would leave one side exposed, the corner canopy shelters the whole threshold. The drawing usually borrows the vocabulary of the fan or the flat canopy depending on your façade — we harmonise from a photograph.

To place the prices: our door canopy price guide breaks down every item, and the Le Fer Forgé guide sets them against the French market (in French).
Frequently asked

Corner door canopies: your questions

Why does a corner canopy cost more?
The survey, the specific drawing and the two-direction structure take more study and more forge time: allow from €2,500, and by study beyond the common configurations.
Does someone need to measure on site?
Not necessarily: dimensioned photographs and a few key measurements (angles, lintel heights) are usually enough. For complex corners, we talk you through the survey step by step.
