No need to remove snow from your driveway.
Groupe Bellon Prestige designs and manufactures custom vestibule and entrance walkway shelters in Montreal to protect your doorway, steps, and pedestrian path throughout the winter.
Every walkway shelter is tailored to the exact dimensions of your home. It is installed by a highly qualified team and supported by reliable after-sales service. Discover how to choose the right custom shelter for your entrance and explore the solutions our experts can provide.
As it is important to cover pedestrian surfaces to avoid falls and accidents, our walkway shelters are custom-made to protect walkways, stairs, balconies and more, narrow or wide. You can also combine a walkway shelter with a car shelter to stay safe and dry from your doorway to your car.
A custom entrance enclosure eliminates the need to clear snow from your access area every day. Our hybrid configurations, combining a vestibule with a front-door enclosure, make the cold season far more enjoyable.
The right configuration depends on the part of the property that needs protection, how the entrance is used, and the level of coverage required. A vestibule enclosure shields the doorway and porch, while a front entrance shelter covers the door and steps. A hybrid configuration creates a sheltered connection between the home and the vehicle, and an accessible passage enclosure helps secure a mobility ramp.
For more guidance, read our guide on how to choose a winter shelter for your front entrance.

Doing business with Groupe Bellon Prestige means being treated with care and professionalism. The service is exceptional and the installers are courteous and efficient. I highly recommend their awnings products which have an impressive durability! Thank you to the entire team!
I dealt with Bellon Prestige five years ago to make screen curtains for my back deck and two years ago to install an awning on a balcony. Every year since then, Bellon has come to pick up the awning, clean it and store it before reinstalling it. In every contact I have had, for every product I have requested, the service has been impeccable. The representatives have always been very courteous, the installations have been done with great care and the products are solid and of very good quality. In fact, both the screen curtains and the awning are still very beautiful. No breakage, no problems. I often recommend Bellon Prestige. A family business, competent and responsible, it is rare…
