Bab Al Qasar Prefab fabricates and installs steel and fabric structures for industrial, commercial and residential clients across the UAE. Our range covers warehouses, workshops, storage sheds, car parking shades and tensile canopies, as well as mezzanine floors and steel staircases.

Steel and Fabric Structures We Build
Steel Warehouses and Workshops
Portal-frame and truss buildings with insulated or single-skin roof and wall cladding, roller shutters, skylights and ventilation for storage, manufacturing and vehicle maintenance.
Storage Sheds and Canopies
Open and closed sheds for materials, equipment, livestock and farm produce, with optional side cladding and mesh.
Car Parking Shades
Cantilever, column-supported and multi-bay parking shades for offices, villas, malls, schools and hospitals, covered with PVC, HDPE or metal sheeting.
Tensile Fabric Structures
Architectural tensile canopies, sail shades, walkway covers and play-area shades using PVC or PTFE membranes on steel frames. They offer UV protection and a clean modern look.
Mezzanine Floors and Steel Platforms
Extra floor space inside warehouses and showrooms, with steel staircases, handrails and safety barriers.
Pergolas, Gazebos and Outdoor Structures
Steel or aluminium pergolas for villas, restaurants and hotels, with optional louvres, lighting and fabric.
Materials and Engineering
- Hot-rolled and cold-formed structural steel designed for UAE wind loads
- Hot-dip galvanising or epoxy and polyurethane paint systems against corrosion
- Roof and wall cladding: single-skin profile sheets or insulated sandwich panels
- Shade fabrics: high-density polyethylene (HDPE), PVC and PTFE membranes with UV protection
- Anchor bolts and base plates designed for the foundation details
Designed for the UAE Environment
Intense sun, sandstorms, coastal humidity and occasional heavy rain all affect metal and fabric structures. We choose coatings for coastal or inland exposure, check frames for wind uplift, design for drainage, and use UV-stabilised fabrics so your structure keeps its strength and appearance for years.

Car Parking Shade Price in UAE
Car parking shade prices depend on the number of bays, the frame type (cantilever or column-supported), the cover material (HDPE, PVC or metal sheet), the coating system and the foundations. HDPE shades are the most economical option, while PVC and metal covers cost more but keep rain out. We quote per project after a quick site check.
Tensile Structures for Pools, Restaurants and Entrances
Beyond parking, tensile structures are used over swimming pools, restaurant terraces, entrance canopies and play areas. They give UV protection with a modern architectural look.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between HDPE and PVC car parking shades?
HDPE shade net is breathable and lets hot air escape, while PVC is waterproof and gives full rain protection. The choice depends on whether you want ventilation or waterproofing.
Do you design steel warehouses?
Yes. Our engineers design the frame for your span, height and loads. We then fabricate, coat and erect the structure, including cladding, doors and shutters.
How do you protect steel from corrosion?
We use hot-dip galvanising or multi-coat epoxy and polyurethane paint systems, chosen for whether the site is coastal or inland.
Can you install shades at villas?
Yes. We supply car parking shades, pergolas and sail shades for villas, subject to community or authority guidelines.
Do steel structures need a building permit?
Most permanent structures do. We provide structural drawings and calculations to support your application.
