They are 25cm wide, which is close to double a typical veranda post. That width is what gives the Grand its distinctive, architectural look, and it is matched by an XL gutter and XL wall profile so the whole frame stays in proportion.

A glass roof, in clear, opal or tinted. Clear gives an open view of the sky, opal softens and diffuses the light, and tinted cuts glare and adds privacy from overlooking windows. There is no polycarbonate option on the Grand.

Cut and built to size in any width from 3m, with projections from 2.5m to 4m. Spans up to 6m stand on just two posts. Go wider and posts are added only where they are needed, and because every MB model links seamlessly side by side, there is no upper limit on width.

White, slate grey, anthracite or black. All four are premium powder-coated finishes chosen for colourfastness. The darker shades read as crisp outlines around the glass, while white lifts the frame against a light-coloured house.

On a small terrace, honestly, yes. The Grand needs space around it to look right. If your outdoor space is modest, the standard MB Cube gives the same flat roofline on slimmer profiles and will sit more comfortably.
