Best types of Carports not Car Port!

It’s a common mistake to think that the word carport is two words “car port” so now that is cleared, there are many different choices for the best types of Carport not Car Port!

Skillion or Flat Roof -  Best types of Carport not Car Port!

Skillion Roof Carports are our most economical choice but are manufactured with the same high-quality materials found in other Professional Choice Carports. These carports have a flat roof which minimises the number of components which means that, while not being quite as

visually appealing as other types of carports, they are simpler to install. They are also lower in cost and are an excellent choice for caravans, boats and cars and that is why skillion Carports have been installed all over Australia and continue to be the most popular choice.

Traditional Gable Carport

Traditional Gable Carports are a great choice for mimicking the style of the existing nearby roof. Multiple colours can be used in order to achieve further consistency with nearby or surrounding structures and a gable roof carport will allow for a wider span without adding legs for support.

When ordering a gable carport, there are choice to make. The Traditional gable carport usually has in-fills. Infills are at the front and back in the triangular ‘space” just under the end roof but sometime this is left open, which can make the carport cooler in hot days. The in-fill is very often supplied in

Colorbond to match the trim or roof but many customers prefer to be supplied with just the frame in the gable and they can decide their own in-fill material. Lattice, concrete board or wooden slatting are some common materials used for the in-fill.
