Well my canvas canopy is now on its last legs and it's time for a new one.
Any recommended places I should look around Brissie at getting this done?
Would love to see any photos of what people have/have seen to give me some ideas on how I'll do this one.
Are there designs out there that can make them lockable?

yea pics would be great.
i like the idea of the canvas because it's much easier for me to store, plus the simplicity of taking it on and off.

I actually make these for a living, so if you want to meet up sometime for a measure/quote that would be no problem at all.
I can make it to suit your needs in the way of zips/windows and things like that.
If you really want it made out of canvas that is no problem...but for campoies I recommend PVC. This is a better material for this type of job for a few reasons...
1) easier to clean (once canvas is dirty...its dirty!)
2) canvas will shrink over time...so if you plan on taking it on/off/on/off it WILL shrink and one day might not fit!
3) In my opinion the final result just looks better.
If you would like to give me a call on 0411556836 maybe we can arrange something.
I am on the southside of Brisbane
