Metal Carport Kits

What You Receive in a Metal Carport Kit

When you purchase a carport kit, you'll receive all the components of a traditional metal carport.Essentially, you'll have everything you need to break ground on your new structure. The parts included are:

Steel Framing

This will be the backbone of your entire structure. The steel framing will include support columns, trusses, and additional hardware.

Roofing Panels

Your roofing panels are one of the most important parts of any carport. These will arrive pressed and cut to size for your build.

Wall Paneling

If the framing is the backbone of steel carports, the wall paneling will be its skin. Much like roofing panels, these components will also arrive ready for assembly.

Fasteners and Hardware

No one wants to spend all day searching through their tool shed to find the correct fasteners, bolts, and components to complete a job. And luckily, you won’t have to, since we will deliver it all to you!

Building Anchors

Anchors are the components that will connect your building to its foundation. Depending on your chosen foundation type, these anchors can vary.

Customization Options

You’ll also receive any additional components that you’ve added to your metal carport during its design phase.

The Many Types and Styles of Metal Carport Kits

Believe it or not, a metal carport isn’t a one-size-fits-all kind of structure. In fact, they come in many different styles, iterations, and size options. First off, let’s take a look at the roofing options you’ll find on these structures:

Regular Roof Carports

A regular roof is your traditional carport roof, with rounded corners and horizontally placed paneling. It’s a great go-to option if you live in a region with mild weather conditions.

A-Frame Roof Carports

Also known as a boxed-eave carport, a-frames will look more like the roof you’d find on a residential home. They have overhanging awnings, a sharper roof pitch, and horizontal panels, making them far more effective at handling high winds.

Vertical Roof Carports

A vertical roof is prized as the cream of the crop in terms of weather resistance, thanks to its vertically oriented paneling that allows leaves, rain, snow, and debris to slide harmlessly away from your roof.

When you purchase any of the below types of metal carports, you'll be able to choose the roofing type that works best for your region and needs.

One-Car Carports

A one-car carport is a carport designed to specifically accommodate a single small or medium-sized vehicle. They're an excellent option for those who want to keep their new car safe, dry, and pristine.

Two-Car Carports

A bit larger, this metal carport is designed to comfortably house two small or medium vehicles while still providing enough room to move around.

Three-Car Carports

As you may have guessed, a three-car carport is a vehicle cover engineered to protect up to three standard-sized vehicles. They're a great, cost-effective option for families that own multiple vehicles.

RV Carports

Metal RV carports are a bit taller and larger than other standard carports to accommodate large recreational vehicles, buses, and motorhomes. They're a fantastic way to keep your RV in good shape during winter.

Boat Carports

Boat carports are perfect for those that own various types of watercraft. From boats to jet skis, keeping them in good condition year-round can be expensive. But with a boat carport, protecting them is easy and cost-effective!

Utility Carports

Sometimes it's valuables and equipment you want to keep out of the rain. And now you can do just that with a utility carport! Some styles can even be customized with walls and doors!

Customize a Metal Carport Kit to Meet Your Needs

One of the things that genuinely sets metal construction apart from the competition is its customizability. From top to bottom, you can alter and change almost every aspect of your metal carport kit. We've detailed just a few of these customization options below.

Color Options

When you purchase a metal carport kit, you’ll have free rein to pick between over 15 colors, including:

• White - Earth Brown
• Pewter Gray - Slate Blue
• Evergreen - Barn Red
• Clay - Rawhide
• Burgundy - Pebble Beige
• Black - Bright Red
• Galvalume - Royal Blue
• Burnished Slate - Sandstone

Building Sizes

You’ll also be able to choose how wide, long, and tall you’d like your new carport to be. This is a perfect solution for those that need a particular sized building for their needs.

Doors

While a carport won’t have doors, when you purchase an enclosed metal building, you’ll be able to add as many entryways and garage doors as you want!

Windows

An open carport won't need windows, but windows are a great way to let in natural light for enclosed structures.

Anchoring Systems

The anchor type used for your structure will depend entirely on your chosen foundation. Soil and gravel foundations use auger-like mobile home anchors, while asphalt foundations will require spiked rods. Concrete foundations, however, will require specialized bolts driven directly into the pad.

Framing and Paneling Gauges

For most residential structures, 14-gauge framing and 29-gauge paneling are the industrial standards. However, if you live in a region with high winds or heavy snowfall, you may want to opt for our thicker 12-gauge frames and 26-gauge paneling.

Steel Carport Kits Are an All-In-One Solution for Your Needs

Believe it or not, metal carports aren't just for covering your cars or SUVs! There is a wide range of applications for these structures. Let's take a look at just a few ways they’re used!

Agricultural Storage

Keeping food supplies, valuable equipment, and animals sheltered can be expensive! But not with a metal carport kit! These kits are a fantastic way to protect almost anything on the farm.

Hobby Spaces

A metal carport is a great, affordable solution if you enjoy working outdoors but want to stay out of the harsh sunlight. It's perfect for hobbies, side jobs, and extra-curricular activities.

Parking

It may seem like a no-brainer, but if your family owns multiple vehicles, having a protective cover can protect paint jobs, reduce wear and tear, and extend the life of your automobiles.

Play Area Covers

A metal carport kit is a wonderful solution for covering playground equipment and kids' play areas from inclement weather.

Yard Storage

If you own a lawnmower and landscaping equipment, a metal carport kit is your prime choice for keeping them in working condition throughout the winter months.
