Terrace coverings are available in a number of materials such as wood, plastic and aluminium. Aluminium offers a great deal of advantages; it is durable, easy to maintain, slim line and stylish. Moreover, an aluminium structure is sturdy and stable, thus offering strong resistance against wind and rain. However, there is a considerable difference in the composition of aluminium (alloy) and its finish (coating). You can consult with your supplier on which composition is used, and whether the materials are coated according to Qualicoat. Materials manufactured in Europe usually comply with the requirements set.

Pallazzo terrace coverings have a CE Marking, which is obligatory in Europe. We furthermore provide a 10-year warranty on the paintwork of our coverings and conservatories, and we are also Qualicoat certified. In addition, all Pallazzo coverings are also fitted with a static, which can be requested after purchasing your terrace covering. Among other things, this static report includes the extent to which a gutter or roof girder sags in the event of full snow load. This is an important document since you’re attaching a structure to your home.

You can choose from a polycarbonate or glass roof. The advantage of glass is the high levels of sunlight. Layered safety glass is always used in Pallazzo coverings to prevent glass panes from falling out. What’s more, glass has an infinite lifespan. Another option is polycarbonate, which the major advantage being that this is a light material, meaning a large span is possible. Polycarbonate allows between 22% and 82% of light through, depending on the thickness of the finish. Pallozzo polycarbonate roof panels have a UV protective coating, which prevents yellowing and ageing.
No, this is simply not possible since the width of glass panes is often smaller than those of polycarbonate panels. Another significant reason is that the covering has in the first instance been calculated for polycarbonate panels, which are lighter than glass.
In most cases no permit is required for installing a terrace covering. Enquire with your local authority concerning requirements.

The structure: The basic principle of a Pallazzo roof is that the standard supports the gutter’s centre of gravity as best as possible. This means the post or standard is equal to the rear of the drain, and therefore the force of the drain load is transferred onto the posts, prevent the drain from tilting.
