About Alotek Shelters
Over 30 years of excellence in manufacturing bespoke shelters and canopies for the UK's leading schools, councils, and businesses.
Your Trusted UK Shelter Manufacturer
Alotek Shelters Ltd is a leading manufacturer of bus shelters, canopies, and outdoor structures with over 30 years of experience in the industry. Based in Lancashire, we serve customers nationwide, from small parish councils to large educational institutions and commercial enterprises.
Our team utilizes advanced 3D drawing software and client specifications to create the highest quality structures. We pride ourselves on providing realistic artist impressions that enable clients to visualize their end product before manufacturing begins.
We only fabricate shelters using high-grade aluminium and steel, ensuring durability and longevity. Our experienced engineers and dedicated installation team guarantee that every project is completed to the highest standards.

Alex Thomas
Managing Director since 2021
Alex has run Alotek since 2021. He trained in CAD and design at Southampton Solent University (BSc, 2:1). That is still how jobs start: site survey, drawings the client can actually read, then manufacture in aluminium, then install from the Lancashire workshop.
Before 2021 he worked in technical sales and metal fabrication, including as a sales engineer for a Liverpool fabricator. Typical clients are parish and town councils, school and MAT estates teams, NHS sites, and commercial operators who need jet wash screens or forecourt structures.
School sites are DBS-checked. Planning and highways paperwork is handled where the job needs it. Alotek has manufactured outdoor structures since 1994.
