A Cohesive Canopies Solution in Wilmington, North Carolina
Overview
At a fulfillment center in Wilmington, North Carolina, Shelters Direct furnished and installed two 21′ x 40′ pre-engineered canopies—one serving the main entrance and the other serving the truck area. Designed to give employees comfortable, covered outdoor spaces, both canopies protect from the elements while maintaining a clean, cohesive look across the fulfillment center.
The matching structures combine durable steel construction with practical features, including low-profile LED lighting, integrated conduits, and external drainage. Custom paint selected to meet the architect’s specifications adds a finished look tailored to the facility.
Project Details
Designed for the demands of a busy fulfillment center, these two matching 21′ x 40′ canopies provide dedicated, weather-protected spaces at both the main entrance and truck area. The generous 12-foot clearances create open, comfortable areas for employees while accommodating the activity and traffic associated with each location.
The smooth white steel decking provides a clean, finished appearance, while the architect-specified paint finish allows the structural steel to coordinate with the fulfillment center’s overall design. Low-profile LED lighting adds visibility without compromising the streamlined appearance, while external drains with collars help manage rainwater.

- 12-foot clearance from the bottom of the fascia to the lowest finished grade
