Employee-Focused Shelter & Break Area Solutions


Overview


A warehouse facility near Fort Worth, Texas, partnered with Shelters Direct to develop safe, functional outdoor spaces that enhance the employee experience. The project required covered drop-off areas and dedicated break spaces to provide year-round protection from the elements while supporting facility operations and aesthetics. Shelters Direct worked closely with the client to deliver a turnkey solution focused on durability, functionality, and employee well-being.

Project Details


Aluminum Drop-Off Shelters

Two aluminum drop-off shelters, each measuring 7’5″ x 14’7″, were installed to offer employees and visitors a comfortable, weather-protected area for arrival and departure. Each shelter includes:

  • 84-inch clear opening
  • Twin-wall opal translucent hip roof for natural daylighting
  • Fixed windows with ¼-inch clear tempered safety glass
  • Durable aluminum construction designed for long-term performance

Pre-Engineered Break Area Canopies

Six pre-engineered break area canopies, each 20′ x 26’6″, were installed to create covered outdoor gathering spaces for employees. Each canopy includes:

  • Four-column structural design
  • 13’6″ clearance height
  • 36-inch fascia
  • External drainage system for effective water management
  • Surface-mounted lighting integrated into the canopy structure to improve visibility

Result


The project transformed underused outdoor areas into practical spaces that enhance employee comfort, safety, and productivity. The drop-off shelters offer reliable protection from sun and weather, while the break-area canopies provide inviting spaces for employees to gather and recharge. With durable construction, integrated lighting, and weather-resistant design, Shelters Direct delivered a lasting solution that improves both employee experience and facility functionality.
