Front Entry

[Canuck]

Pop up the roof system over the entry so it's clearing and unattached to the main roof system except at the back. Throw in extended bearing points from the walls on either side of the entry at the front. Here on the "Wet Coast" we get about 1500mm of rain a year and everything I design must have well covered entry from the elements. This is an easy work around for enclosed front entry as it keeps you from having to do some ugly vallies to move the water off the extended entry roof. We call this sort of system a "Top Hat". Not sure what you Americans call it.
