Steel Carports

Steel Carports Built for Central Florida

Keep the Florida sun, rain and falling debris off your cars, trucks, boats and equipment with a steel carport sized to fit your property. We deliver and install it free anywhere from Jacksonville to Tampa.

Popular Uses

A carport is the simplest way to add covered space to your home, farm or business.

  • Cars & trucks

    Shade that keeps your vehicles cooler and protects paint from sun, rain and falling limbs.

  • Boats & trailers

    Keep boats, utility trailers and toys covered between trips.

  • Equipment & tools

    Covered space for mowers, tractors, tools and outdoor gear.

  • Farm & business

    Shelter for farm equipment, work vehicles or a covered work area.

Choose Your Roof Style

Every carport is available in three roof styles. Here's how they compare.

  • Regular (Rounded)

    The most budget-friendly choice. Rounded eaves and horizontal roof panels give solid, everyday protection.

  • A-Frame

    A peaked, house-style look that matches most homes, with better rain runoff than a rounded roof.

  • Best for Florida rain

    Vertical

    Our top pick for Florida. Roof panels run from peak to eave, so rain, leaves and debris slide right off. Certified vertical-roof units carry our 20-year limited warranty.
