Metal Carports
Inexpensive Car Shade
Metal carports are a popular and affordable way to shade your home
and protect your vehicles. They also work great as patio covers or protection for pets and horses. Construction
of awnings using metal 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.
This
all steel shelter provides outdoor protection for two vehicles or
a variety of equipment. The galvanized steel framing system features patented
slip fit connections and is engineered to stand 40 PSF snow and 90
MPH wind loads. The ground anchors and instructions are
included for convenient installation on any level surface.
This
VersaTube steel carport is for one vehicle. It measures 12' x
20' x 10' high. It is also available from Northern Tool, a
great online supplier of carports and heavy duty canopies.
This
is the least expensive VersaTube car shelter. It sells for
around a thousand dollars and is the perfect solution to protect
your vehicle from the sun and the snow.
