The door canopy is a cover on the side of a building, generally on the top of the exterior door or window. It’s designed to enhance the overall beauty of the house and give protection from the weather when leaving or entering a property. For example, the door canopy will keep you dry when you search for keys in the rain, it can shade you from the sun, and it can also prevent injuries from falling objects.
The door canopy could be originated a very long time ago. The exquisite door canopy was used as a symbol of status at that time, besides enhancing the beauty of the house.
