Axgard Clear Solid Glazing Sheet is a premium quality clear roofing option that offers great clarity combined with durability. Manufactured from a virtually unbreakable polymer resin, the Axgard Clear Sheets are over 200 times stronger than glass of the same thickness.
Offering a similar visual to glass, Axgard solid sheets provide great clarity but with a high impact resistance. Perfect for garden lean to’s or school canopies where glass isn’t safe.
Installing a clear solid polycarbonate sheet roof is an easy process, even for those with just a little DIY experience. To secure your glazing sheets to a roof simply use our aluminium glazing bars - these work with any thickness or tint of sheeting. Although not as heavy as glass, it is important to use an aluminium glazing bar to ensure your Axgard Roof is securely fixed down to your rafters.
When a new canopy from scratch, it is worth considering our self supporting glazing bars with the Axgard® as this will remove the need for any timber rafters at all! A quality self-supporting glazing bar structure alongside the Axgard Glazing can last more than 20 years.
What clear solid polycarbonate thicknesses should you use?
If you are building a lean-to-roof or similar external roof then a great thickness to start with is our 6mm clear solid polycarbonate sheet. This is our most popular thickness as it offers a good combination of spanning strength and price point.
If you are unsure of what thickness is best for you, simply reach out to our team and we’ll be happy to discuss your project further.

We manufacture Axgard Clear Glazing Sheets in thicknesses from 2mm up to 12mm. The 5mm and 6mm thickness sheets are the most popular as they offer great strength and a middle-of-the-road price. However, if you are wanting to use wider or stronger sheets the thicker options are a good choice.
To cut Solid Clear Sheets, simply use a jigsaw with an appropriate fine-toothed blade. Unlike other plastics, Axgard can be cut neatly without the risk of splitting. Watch our how-to video guide for the full instructions.
