Before you convert

4 Things That Decide If Your Carport Can Be Enclosed

  • Leg height: plan legs at least 1′ taller than the door. Most 6′ carports need taller legs for a garage door.
  • Engineering: walls catch more wind, so the frame, bracing and anchors must be engineered for an enclosed building.
  • Foundation: a garage works best on a concrete slab. Stem walls require impact-rated doors.
  • Permit: the enclosure needs to be on the permit drawings. We prepare and file them.

Did we build your carport?

Send us your order number or a photo of the label. If we built it, we already know the frame and can price the conversion quickly. If another company built it, send photos of the legs, the base and any engineering you have, and we will tell you what it needs.

FAQ

Carport Conversion Questions, Answered

Can you turn my carport into a garage?

Yes. We add side walls, end walls, a roll-up door, a walk-in door and windows to turn a carport into a fully enclosed garage. On a carport we did not build, we check the frame, leg height and engineering first and quote what it needs.

How much does it cost to enclose a carport?

Closing both sides starts at $440 and each closed end starts at $540 on a small carport with 6′ legs. A wind-rated roll-up door starts at $1,325, a walk-in door is $300 and a window is $200. As a finished example, a fully enclosed 24′ × 26′ garage with 9′ legs, a 10′ × 8′ roll-up door and a walk-in door is about $10,560 installed.

Do my carport legs need to be taller to add a garage door?

Usually. Plan legs at least 1′ taller than the door. An 8′ tall roll-up door needs about 9′ legs, and a 10′ tall door needs about 11′ to 12′ legs. Most carports have 6′ legs, which is too short for a standard garage door.

Do I need a new permit to enclose a carport?

In most Florida jurisdictions, yes. Enclosing a carport changes the wind loads on the frame, so the engineering and permit need to show the walls and doors. We prepare the revised engineering and file the permit.

Do I need impact-rated doors?

It depends on your wind zone and foundation. Many coastal counties and all stem-wall buildings need impact-rated doors. Impact-rated roll-up doors start at $1,600, impact walk-in doors at $600 and impact windows at $590.

Is it cheaper to order the garage now or enclose later?

Ordering the garage up front almost always costs less. You pay for one engineering package, one permit and one install trip, and the legs and bracing are sized for walls from the start.
