Metal Utility Carports: The Perfect Combination of a Metal Carport with Storage

Metal utility carports, or more commonly combo units, are offered as a combined structure. They have an open carport unit as well as a fully enclosed storage shed unit attached to that carport. These metal combo units are incredibly affordable and have versatile usages. You basically get the benefits of two structures, a carport and a garage, morphed into one. There are various benefits of owning a metal carport with storage, be it for normal use or for agricultural purposes. You get the same range of customization options with the purchase of a utility carport as with any of our other products.

Features of Metal Utility Carports

As stated, metal utility carports are a combination of carports and storage units. You can purchase a metal carport with storage as a “Top-Only” unit, where the metal carport is open. Alternatively, you can buy it as a “Top-Plus” unit where you can partially enclose the carport section with gables or side panels. The utility shed always has full coverage and is more like a metal garage. 

Size of Metal Carports with Storage

As with any of our other products, we offer metal utility carports with standard dimensions and also with customizable sizes. The standard models are readily available in our stock supply. Remember that with metal utility carports, you cannot choose different widths for the carport and the storage section. The width of the carport is the width of the storage section. Also, you cannot have differing heights between these two sections. Select a height for a section and that is the height of the entire structure.

Color Options for Metal Carports with Storage

We have 14 options for the color combination of your metal carport with storage. You can pick the shade for the roof panels, the wall panels as well as the trims, to get the aesthetic that you like. Again, the color combination is the same for both the metal carport section and the storage section. You cannot pick a different color combination for the two sections.

Extra features for Metal Carports with Storage

With the purchase of a combo unit, we offer our customers various extra features or accessories. These features help to make the unit more durable, better looking and provide better protection to your belongings. With the metal utility carports, you can choose to install side panels, gables or both for better coverage. Enclosing a carport thus will provide you and your belongings more safety against the elements. Plus, it will give the entire structure a more refined look.

For the enclosed storage unit, you can pick to install the openings of your choice. These opening fixtures include garage doors, walk-in doors as well as windows. We can also install frame-outs if you decide that you want to fix your own opening later. Additionally, you can choose how many openings you want to install and the side on which you want to install them. You should always consider the height of your structure beforehand. Make sure that you purchase a metal carport with storage that has enough leg height to accommodate the openings.
