We provide a diverse range of carport styles tailored to your needs. From standard carports for everyday vehicles to spacious RV carports and enclosed metal building and utility carports for multi-purpose storage, we have options that suit Florida’s climate and your preferences.

When determining the ideal height for your carport, it’s advisable to make the legs approximately one foot taller than the height of the tallest vehicle you anticipate owning. It’s essential to factor in additional elements like roll bars, top racks, and RV AC units when measuring for height.

Keep in mind that if you decide to enclose the gables of your carport, the clearance will be slightly reduced by approximately three inches compared to the leg height. For instance, if your carport’s legs measure 7 feet, the resulting clearance would be around 6 feet 9 inches.

Alternatively, if you opt to keep the gables open, the highest clearance point will be at the center brace, near the roof’s peak. This location provides a clearance that’s about 18 inches higher than the leg height. From the top brace, the roof frame gradually tapers down to a height close to the legs on each side. So, if your carport has 7-foot legs, you can comfortably park a slightly taller vehicle underneath, as long as you avoid positioning it too close to the sides.

The height of the carport or building is the height of the eave wall studs on the sides of the structure.

No, we will not connect the carports or metal garages to your residence, edifice, or any other building. To properly set them up, we require a clearance of at least 3 feet on all sides of open carports and metal garages.

ere are some standard dimensions for single and double carports:

• 12′ wide: Suitable for one car.
• 18′ wide: Can accommodate one and a half cars.
• 20′ wide: Fits two compact cars, but door opening space may be tight.
• 22′ wide: Designed for two cars.
• 24′ wide: Offers space for two cars and provides ample door opening clearance.

One approach to determine the ideal size for your carport is to park two of your vehicles side by side and measure the width required to comfortably open all doors on both cars.

For instances where you need space for a single car and an additional vehicle such as a motorcycle or lawnmower, an 18′-wide carport should suffice. But if your setup involves a car alongside a truck or SUV, choosing this size could result in car doors bumping into other vehicles or the carport’s steel tubing.

When considering two smaller, compact cars, a carport measuring at least 20×20 is recommended. If you’re interested in a fully enclosed carport with two garage doors, a 20×20 garage is the smallest size that accommodates two garage doors.

Moving up to a slightly more spacious option is the 22×20 double carport, providing that extra breathing room. The largest double carport size available is the 24×20, ideal for accommodating two larger vehicles

The regular style is the most economical and showcases the curved eave on the roof to the sides.

Both the boxed eave and vertical styles share a similar appearance, with the difference lying in the orientation of the roof sheeting. In the boxed eave style, the sheeting runs parallel to the length, while in the vertical roof style, the sheeting runs vertically. This vertical arrangement allows rain, and debris to easily slide off the roof.

The vertical roof style stands out as the sturdiest. To achieve the vertical orientation of the roof sheeting, the design incorporates metal purlins or hat channels to which the sheeting is attached to the trusses. This additional structural support enhances the strength of the vertical style. However, it’s worth noting that due to the materials used and the increased construction time, the vertical roof style is the most costly among the three options.

Indeed, we offer the option of tailoring the size of a carport or metal garage to your preferences. However, please note that the pricing structure involves charging the customer the cost of the next larger standard-sized structure. For instance, if you require a carport that is 17′ wide, and the available standard widths are 12′ and 18′, the pricing would be based on an 18′-wide carport. This same guideline applies to the length as well. If your desired length is 24′ but the standard 25′ length is excessive, we can adjust it to 24′; nevertheless, the pricing would reflect that of a 25′-long carport. It’s important to consider that when we specify a length of 25′, this measurement doesn’t encompass the 6″ overhang on the front and back. While the base length is 25′, the actual roof length is 26′.

The narrowest available metal garage or carport size is 10′ wide, and it would be priced as if it were a 12′ wide structure.
