What is Cantilever Coping?
Cantilever coping is aluminium crest coping that attaches to a parapet wall with a large overhang which has a non-structural exterior building façade, such as an EIFS system, panels or cladding.
The specially reinforced support brackets enable the metal coping to remain stable when the brackets cannot be attached to an external façade also with the characteristics of aluminium being lightweight their is less strain on the wall and the coping itself.
Therefore the outside, cantilever coping looks exactly the same as crest coping and provides the same smooth, clean finish to parapet walls, flat and pitched roofs. Also all of our aluminium copings are custom fabricated to suit individual project requirements and are available with quick turnaround and fast delivery.

BBA quality assured
We pride ourselves on manufacturing the only BBA (British Board of Agrement) approved coping in the UK (certificate no. 18/5586). After rigorous testing, on-site evaluation and production inspections, our parapet coping was awarded the BBA mark of quality, safety and reliability that guarantees the coping’s fitness-for-purpose.
Bespoke Profile Parapet Coping
With a bespoke aluminium coping system, the architect or designer can have a specially designed, non-standard coping system with shapes, dimensions, colours and textures that can all be combined to suit the project. Aluminium coping can be pressed, fabricated and welded to form special coping in a variety of shapes and sizes.
Design process
We like to work with architects and project managers from the beginning of a project to design and manufacture coping that meets the vision of the architect and the aesthetics of the design. We offer free technical advice.
