How to size it

3 Rules for Picking the Right Size

1. Measure your biggest vehicle, then add 3 to 5 feet on each side for doors and walking room.

2. Measure height at the tallest point, including antennas, AC units and racks. Our prices start with 6′ legs; add a foot of clearance.

3. Plan for later. Going one size bigger now costs much less than adding on or buying a second carport.

FAQ

Carport Size Questions

What is the most popular carport size?

The 24′ × 26′ two-car carport. It fits two full-size vehicles with room to open doors and walk around, and starts at $2,795 installed with a regular roof.

What size carport do I need for 2 cars?

At least 20′ wide for two cars. We recommend 22′ to 24′ wide and 26′ long so you can open doors and fit full-size trucks.

What size carport do I need for an RV?

Usually 12′ to 18′ wide, with a length about 5′ longer than your RV and leg height about 1′ taller than its highest point. Most RVs need 12′ to 14′ legs.

Why are lengths like 21′ and 26′ instead of 20′ and 25′?

The listed length is the roof length. The roof overhangs the frame by about 1′, so a 21′ roof sits on a 20′ frame. That overhang adds a little extra rain protection.

How tall should my carport be?

Standard legs are 6′, which suits most cars. Choose 8′ to 10′ for lifted trucks and vans, and 12′ to 14′ for boats on trailers and RVs.

Can I get a size that is not listed?

Yes. Every carport is built to order. Use the 3D designer or send us your measurements and we will price your exact size.
