At Shade Systems, we understand the challenge that schools face in protecting students from the elements. That’s why we specialise in designing and constructing Covered Walkways for New Zealand schools, council assets, and business premises. Our expertise ensures that your specific needs are met with professionalism and precision.

Shade and UV Protection.

Harsh sunlight can be a significant concern for the safety and comfort of your school students and staff. Our polycarbonate or fiberglass canopies block up to 99% of harmful Ultraviolet rays, providing a cool, shaded environment. Available in various colors and styles, our canopies enhance the aesthetic appeal of your location while offering crucial sun protection.

Weatherproof Solutions.

Rainy days can disrupt the flow between buildings and create hazards. Our Sola Gola® shade structures ensure dry, safe passage with waterproof coverings that effectively channel rainwater into your stormwater system. This prevents flooding and maintains clear, accessible walkways even during heavy downpours.

Visibility.

Maintaining visibility and safety is essential, especially during early mornings or late evenings. Our covered walkways allow natural light to filter through while blocking harmful UV rays. For nighttime use, we can integrate a full lighting system with automatic sensors, ensuring well-lit paths only when needed.

Comprehensive Project Management.

From the initial design phase to the final construction, at Shade Systems our experienced team handles every aspect of your covered walkway project. Our end-to-end service includes planning, obtaining any necessary consent, and building to your exact specifications. We ensure that your walkways are robust, aesthetically pleasing, and fully functional.

Customised Features.

We offer a range of design elements to tailor your walkways to your needs. Choose from various colors and materials, and add features such as seating, bike racks, and pedestrian traffic management solutions to create a safe and welcoming environment.
