Patio Enclosures for Restaurants

Patio enclosures are a valuable addition to any restaurant looking to provide a top-notch dining experience, attract more customers, and increase revenue. We’ve helped local restaurants and homeowners across Vancouver—including Yaletown, Kitsilano, Burnaby, and North Shore—maximize their patios with year-round enclosures and awnings.

 

By expanding your dining space and offering versatile seating options, you can create a unique and memorable atmosphere that sets your restaurant apart from the competition. Whether you opt for retractable glass enclosures or traditional patio covers, investing in patio enclosures is an investment in the future success of your restaurant.

Materials and Options

​Every patio enclosure and awning is custom-built in our Surrey facility and tailored to your space. Popular options include:

  1. Clear Vinyl Enclosures: Vinyl-wall patios, often referred to as "patio rooms" or "patio enclosures," use floor-to-ceiling PVC walls and roofs to create a comfortable, climate-controlled environment. They are ideal for year-round outdoor dining.

  2. Roll-Up Screens: Roll-up screens or shades can be added to existing structures or awnings to protect against insects, wind, and light rain while maintaining an open-air feel.

  3. Tented Enclosures: Tented enclosures use weather-resistant materials to create a cozy and inviting space. They are excellent for events, private parties, or creating a unique dining atmosphere.
