The hosts can wait for short precipitation with varied weather – garden furniture and other things are well protected from the inclement from above under the transparent protective roof made of laminated safety glass, which must be particularly stable as so-called “overhead glazing” in order to defy snow loads in winter or complex, strong winds.

Laminated safety glass for patio roofs is commonly produced from float glass or heat-strengthened glass. Depending on the snow loads to be expected regionally, the glass surface and the rafter width, the glass thicknesses in the construction must be determined. Depending on your preference (possibly depending on the amount of sunlight and flexible sun protection available), either clear, tinted, printed or satin-finished glass is used.
