Canopy cabins: contemporary security and retail kiosks
The canopy cabin is our premium cabin range for entrances where the cabin is on show. It does the same job as a standard security hut — a dry, well-lit post with a clear view of the entrance — but it is dressed for modern architecture: stone-effect cladding, an architectural canopy roof with lights, and wide windows.
Choose it for a hotel forecourt, an office or business park entrance, a residential development's concierge point, a retail park, a campus or a venue — anywhere a plain white hut would look temporary next to the building.
The same cabin works three ways: as a premium security cabin for guards, as a reception kiosk where visitors sign in and deliveries are received, or as a ticket and retail kiosk with a serving window.

Reception kiosk, security cabin or retail kiosk: which size?
Pick the size from the job the cabin does and how many people staff it at the busiest time of day.
Then think about the view from inside. A reception kiosk works best with its main window facing the path or approach road, so staff see visitors before they reach the glass. A security post needs a clear line to the barrier and the gate. Mark both on your site plan and we draw the window and door positions to suit.
- Single-person entrance post: 1.40 × 1.40 m — the premium alternative to a standard 1.5 × 1.5 m guard hut.
- Front desk with a wide window: 1.40 × 2.15 m — room for a desk facing visitors.
- Two-person gatehouse: 2.15 × 2.15 m — for busy entrances staffed by two.
- Reception kiosk: 2.15 × 2.65 m — visitor sign-in, parcels and passes.
- Concierge or information kiosk: 2.65 × 2.65 m, the largest canopy cabin.
Canopy cabin or composite gatehouse?
Both are architectural gatehouse ranges, in the same five footprints and 2.75 m high. The canopy cabin costs less size for size and has a warmer, stone-like finish that sits well beside brick and stone. The composite gatehouse uses aluminium composite panels for a sharper, corporate look that suits glass and metal-clad buildings.
The composite gatehouse is covered on our security gatehouse page. For a plainer, lower-cost post, see security huts or GRP kiosk cabins.
| Canopy cabin | Composite gatehouse | |
|---|---|---|
| From | £5,595 + VAT | £6,890 + VAT |
| 2.15 × 2.15 m | £7,890 + VAT | £8,990 + VAT |
| 2.65 × 2.65 m | £9,890 + VAT | £11,980 + VAT |
| Cladding | Stone-effect | Aluminium composite |
| Roof | Architectural canopy roof with lights | Flat canopy roof |

Delivery, base and planning
Canopy cabins weigh 700–1,400 kg and travel assembled on a lorry with its own crane (HIAB), which lifts the cabin straight onto your base. Allow clear access for the lorry and no overhead cables near the lift.
The base must be firm and level; a concrete slab is best for the heavier sizes. An electrician then connects the incoming supply to the consumer unit.
If the new cabin replaces an old hut, the old base can often be reused when it is sound, level and large enough for the new footprint. Send us a photo and its measurements with your inquiry and we check it for you.
A canopy cabin usually stands at a front entrance, in view of the street, and is meant to stay. That is exactly when planning permission can apply, so check with your local council early — we can supply drawings for the application.

Our products are used in over 140 countries. Production is ISO 9001:2015 and CE certified, and every canopy cabin has a 12-month warranty against manufacturing and assembly faults.

Straight answers
Questions buyers ask us
How much does a canopy cabin cost?
From £5,595 + VAT for the 1.40 × 1.40 m size to £9,890 + VAT for the 2.65 × 2.65 m size. Delivery is quoted by postcode.
What is a reception kiosk?
A small staffed building at an entrance where visitors sign in, drivers report and parcels are received. The 2.15 × 2.65 m canopy cabin is our reception kiosk size.
Can a canopy cabin be used as a security cabin?
Yes. It is a lockable, glazed and lit cabin like our standard security huts, with a more architectural finish. The 2.15 × 2.15 m size takes two guards.
What is the difference between a canopy cabin and a composite gatehouse?
The canopy cabin has stone-effect cladding and a canopy roof with lights; the composite gatehouse has aluminium composite cladding and a flat canopy roof. The canopy cabin costs less in every size.
How heavy is a canopy cabin?
700 kg for the smallest size and 1,400 kg for the largest, so it needs a firm, level base — ideally a concrete slab.
How is a canopy cabin delivered?
Assembled, on a lorry with its own crane that lifts it onto your base.
Can canopy cabins be used for retail or tickets?
Yes. With a serving window they work as ticket, information or retail kiosks — see outdoor retail kiosks and ticket booths.
Does a canopy cabin need planning permission?
A permanent cabin at a front entrance may. Check with your local council; we can supply drawings for an application.
