Choose Gauge Type
Every carport or steel building starts with the base-frame. Depending on your area, you may opt for the stronger gauge steel frame. The 12-gauge steel frame is our recommended choice for all carports or buildings, no matter the size.
1. Gauge Type For Base Frame
The 12 gauge steel framing is our strongest frame and has a 20 year rust-through warranty. This is our strongest frame and is recommended for customers in high snow areas.
The 14 gauge steel framing is more economical and comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty. This gauge is great for most regions. If you need additional strength, we recommend upgrading to 12 gauge framing.
Carport Roof Types
Our buildings come with a Standard roof at no additional cost. The roof will have a 3/12 pitch and go into a peak but will have rounded corners leading on to the sides.
A popular option is our classic “A” shaped building to have more of a residential look to go with their house. We offer two A-Frame styles, an A-Frame Horizontal roof with the panels running from front to back and an A-Frame Vertical roof with the panels running from the peak to the eave and additional hat channels underneath for support. The vertical roof will also have a Ridge Cap to prevent water and debris from entering the building on the peak.
2. Metal Roof Type
Classical Roof Style
The Classical style steel carport comes with rolled corners and is designed to be strong, durable, and cost-effective. If you are looking for a basic car or RV cover and don’t have snow in your region, this option is perfect.
Boxed-Eave Roof Style
Boxed eave roof carports give you the A-Frame look but the panels run horizontal, or front to back. If you have heavy rain or snow, we recommend the vertical A-Frame roof style.
Vertical Style Roof Style
The vertical roof will also have a Ridge Cap to prevent water and debris from entering the building on the peak. Extra hat channels run across the roof for additional support.
3. Metal Sides & Ends
All roof and side panels are 29-gauge. 26-gauge panels are available for an additional 14% of the base cost.
Horizontal Panels
Horizontal panels run side to side and are the budget-friendly option.
Vertical Panels
Vertical panels run from top to bottom and have a professional look that many of our customers love.
