Rounded eaves with panels running front to back. A simple, classic look for smaller buildings.
A-Frame Boxed Eave
A peaked roof with boxed-in eaves and panels running front to back, for a look that matches a house.
Vertical
A peaked roof with panels running from the ridge down to the eave, so rain, snow, and debris slide straight off. Recommended for longer buildings and for snow.

Frequently asked questions
What size carport do I need?
A 12' x 20' carport fits one car or a full-size pickup. An 18' x 20' carport fits two cars side by side. A 20' x 20' carport fits two vehicles with more room to open doors.
Can a carport go on my concrete slab or asphalt driveway?
Yes. On concrete, the building is anchored to your existing slab. On asphalt, it's anchored to your driveway or pad.
Which roof style is best for a carport?
A regular roof suits a smaller carport. For a longer carport, or where you get snow, a vertical roof is recommended because the panels run from the ridge down to the eave, so rain and snow slide straight off.
