Metal Carports
Metal carports are a popular and affordable way to shade your home and protect your vehicles. Metal carports also work great as patio covers or protection for pets and horses. Construction of metal awnings is much the same as for the aluminum type. The framework needs to be securely attached and anchored. Then the panels are screwed in place.
The biggest advantage in this type of carport cover over aluminum or wood is the price. They may not be quite as fancy but they will offer the same amount of shade and keep off the same amount of rain.
