Prefabricated Walkway Canopy
We manufacture and install covered walkway canopy systems to keep sidewalks dry. We will design a custom, prefabricated canopy to fit your application. Whether your canopy is for a 10’ walkway or a 500’ walkway, our engineering team has got you covered. Common applications include schools, hospitals, restaurants, parks, and university campuses.
Custom Colors & Layouts
We can design a prefabricated entry door canopy for properties ranging from single-story to complex, multi-story applications. Professional Engineer stamps are available.
Internal Drainage
Designed to your needs and complies with IBC and local building codes.
Infinite Configurations
Our modular design and experienced engineers can configure solutions for the most challenging projects.
Durable
100% industrial-grade aluminum that won’t rust, warp, or rot.
Fast Installation
Prefabricated and bolts together on-site with no welding required.
We Install
Our professional installation crew ensures that your project goes smoothly.
The APEX system is a line of integrated access products that can be configured to meet the most challenging applications.

Features
100% Aluminum – Long Lasting
The entire line of APEX walkway canopies will never rust, warp, or rot. The canopies are low maintenance and will last much longer than wood or steel.
Easy Installation
Our commercial canopies are modular and bolt together easily.
Internal Drainage System
Canopies are designed with a discreet internal gutter and drainage system to divert water away from walkways.
Reconfigurable
Because the system is modular, ramps, stairs, and railings can be reused or reconfigured as your needs change.
Multiple Color Options
We offer many color options so that your covered canopy walkway can match the aesthetics of your property.
HPD/LEED/ESG
Prefabricated systems are typically made with 6061 and 6063 aluminum alloys containing ≥99% and ≥50% recycled content. Some prefabricated systems can help contribute to several LEED v4.1 credits and other green building rating systems.
Custom Layouts
Our team of engineers will design a stair configuration layout just for you. Professional engineer stamps are available.

Modular Buildings
Upside’s canopy systems are engineered to give coverage to outdoor areas between modular offices or classrooms. They can be designed to connect directly to the modular buildings or be self-supported and overlap each modular’s roof.
How the drainage works
With a modular design, all walkway canopies have built-in gutters. Using canopy posts as downspouts, water drains from post outlets, smartly channeling water away from the walkway. An integrated deflector located in the post outlet controls the water flow.
Built with 100% industrial grade aluminum, the canopy and posts will not rust, deform or rot.
Installations
I am very impressed.
It went together well, I am very impressed that your fit and finish was as tight as it is. Thanks again to everyone involved in the project.

Love the quality.
What a great product to work with. Love the quality and ease of assembly!
Denny R.
Fit perfect and was easily assembled.
The platform and stairs are now up and installed and are fantastic. It fit perfect and was easily assembled just as you said it would. Thank you for a wonderful product.

Couldn’t be happier with the whole experience.
The quality was fantastic, and they showed up quickly. From the time they were pulled off the delivery truck, the stairs were assembled, stood up, and lag bolted into the floor in under 1 hour. We really couldn’t be happier with the whole experience we have had with Upside Innovations. Plus, the stairs are much sturdier than I had even hoped for. Below is a picture of the steps installed on the side of our gun range. Thanks again for the great job.

Thank you for the quality work.
Thank you for the quality work. The stairs definitely enhance the look at Lakeside [Garden Apartments]. We appreciate your service to us, and we look forward to working with you again in the future.

So easy to work with!
Upside was so easy to work with! From estimating, to product selection, and all the way to delivery, they were very responsive and easy to work with. When we need another set of stairs, we will be buying them from Upside Innovations.

Upside Innovations was a pleasure to work with from design to delivery.
Nick Bishop was responsive and quick to get a quote started, and Tish Carroll did an excellent job shepherding the job through the engineering design, fabrication, and shipping stages, expediting the process when the deadlines got tighter on my end. The product arrived early and was a pleasure to install – all of the hardware clearly marked and bagged, and the pallet strapped and wrapped securely. These stairs are being used for robotics research/testing and are working flawlessly. I would recommend Upside to anyone looking for professional crossover stairs for their project or building.

Everything worked out great. Thanks to your team for taking care of the details.

The steps are well built.
The steps are well built and sturdy enough to handle our needs safely but yet light enough for two men to move without the use of equipment.
