An outdoor room with an open front
Most patio covers put posts right where you want furniture, views and foot traffic. The ALU FLOAT™ Architectural Cantilever Patio System – Insulated Roof moves the support back, so the front of the patio stays open. Overhead, a solid insulated panel blocks direct sun and leaves a clean ceiling. It suits outdoor kitchens, pool lounges, fire-pit seating, restaurants and hospitality patios, for homeowners and contractors alike.

How a project comes together
Since loads on the roof, wind, the attachment method and where posts land all affect the design, each cantilever layout goes through engineering review. Send Globus Gates your size, site photos and attachment details, and the package is built around them.
