About Kielgast
Vario Überdachungstechnik Kielgast is a metal construction company founded in 1977 in Meschede in the Sauerland, specializing in the development, production, and assembly of terrace canopies. The range includes slat roofs with adjustable slats, glass sliding roofs with movable panes, and summer gardens, which enable use for large parts of the year through glazing such as sliding systems. Each system is planned individually according to customer wishes and local conditions, manufactured, delivered, and assembled on site by the installation team; a free operation training is then provided. Steel and aluminum are used as structural constructions, and the glazing consists of glass. The company is certified as a workshop with certificates according to EN 1090-2 (Steel structures up to EXC1) and EN 1090-3 (Aluminum structures up to EXC2) by TÜV SÜD. According to the company's statement, more than 8000 projects have been completed; manufacturing is carried out entirely at the Meschede site.
