Carport1 makes purchasing metal buildings, carports, RV covers and other structures in Texas easy for all buyers. Our professional customer service teams will guide you through the process of what size of metal carport or building you need, along with the strength of the metal components, color, additional supports, roof styling, and other options.
How Texas affects the Metal Shelters you choose?
Metal buildings, carports and structures in Texas can be affected by the local weather and the city’s guidelines for metal structures. Your local building codes can dictate the type and specifications of your metal building. With varying climate from one city to another, it’s essential to ascertain what sort of metal structure will fit your needs and can withstand the weather.
Most of the regions inside Texas remain dry with a semi-arid climate and scorching heat during summers. This will require a metal structure with galvanized steel to withstand the heat, along with thicker and coated roof panels colored in white to reflect the sunlight. A well-ventilated metal structure will give more space for air to pass.
People living in areas which receive a high amount of rainfall need to install thicker structures for higher tensile strength and live load, possibly 12-gauge steel frames. Those areas also require thicker and stronger roof panels, 26-gauge metal panels, in the stronger Boxed Eave or Vertical roof styling.

Metal Carports and Buildings in Texas: the different regions and areas
Texas comprises five different regions; the choice of roof style for each region will depend on the weather and climatic conditions. The roof style, panel orientation and the structure of the frame affect the durability of the carport. Metal buildings and carports in Texas can be customized to ensure durability.
Carports in North Texas Area
The Northern area is mostly semiarid. Rainfalls and snowfalls are seldom while the tornadoes are common. A Carport1 customer should consider adding 12-gauge metal frame structure and 26-gauge vertical metal roof panels in these regions.
Carports in Trans Pecos Region, Texas
Trans Pecos Region is the driest place in the entirety of Texas. A Carport1 metal building owner should consider adding 14-gauge metal frame structure and 28-gauge metal roof panels for optimum protection from the sun.
Carports in Hill Country Texas Area
The Hill Country is comprised of both sub-humid and semiarid climate. It receives 48 inches of precipitation annually with some floods in near river and low-lying areas. A 14-gauge metal frame with 29-gauge vertical metal roof panels will be sufficient to withstand the local weather.
Carports in Piney Woods Texas Area
Piney woods falls into humid subtropical climate zone with the highest amount of precipitation in the entire state. It is also prone to many thunderstorms, hurricane and tornadoes. A strong concrete base, 12-gauge metal frame, 26-gauge vertical roof panels is recommended to our customers from this region.
Carports in The South Texas Area
The South Texas Area is comprised of semiarid valleys and the wetter Rio Grande Valley. Snowfall is seldom with very few torrential rains. A Carport1 metal building owner should consider installing 14-gauge or 12-gauge metal frames with 26-gauge vertical or Boxed-eave roof panels.
Does Texas demand insulation for metal buildings or additional accessories to maintain the temperature inside?
The temperature in Texas is hot and humid, which can be quite unbearable. It will be almost impossible to stay inside a metal building or metal carport in Texas without any insulation or heat protection.
There are various kinds of reflective materials available for metal buildings. However, you can choose the right kind of reflective insulation for your metal building according to your local weather.
These are the various kinds of insulation available for metal buildings. You can choose from :
- Rigid Board
- Spray Foam
- Fiberglass
- Cellulose
- Rockwool

Metal Frame Gauge

Metal buildings, barns, carports, garages and other structures from Carport1 are built with a metal frame using either 12-gauge or 14-gauge steel. Both of these options are premium metals which can withstand severe weather and wear or tear.
Gauge is the the thickness, size, or capacity of something, especially as a standard measure. In the case of our all-metal buildings, steel gauge means the thickness and strength of the steel components of that structure. Hence, the thicker the framing, the greater strength and the value.

Call us now 877-242-0393
14-gauge Framing
The 14-gauge steel frame from Carport1 measures 2 ½” x 2 ½” inches diameter. The 14 gauge frame tends to be more economical than the 12-gauge frame and has a lower tensile strength. So, metal carport or metal building kits with 14-gauge framing are cost-effective and are recommended in areas with a mild climate.
12 Gauge Framing
The 12-gauge steel frame measures 2 ¼” x 2 ¼” in diameter. It is thicker than the 14-gauge frame and is the strongest Carport1 option available for metal buildings. The 12-gauge framing features higher tensile strength and is more useful for the carports in the areas with heavy snows and winds.
Carport1 recommends that strong concrete foundations are used when constructing metal carports, buildings, barns and other structures in areas prone to tornadoes, hurricanes or hailstorms.
For the areas which receive heavy rainfall and snowfall, Carport1 recommends installing a 12-gauge metal frame and 26-gauge roof panels. For the areas with hot and humid temperature, installing a 14-gauge premium metal frames and 29-gauge roof panels should suffice.
Metal Frame Gauge
When it comes to the metal frame, we generally offer 12-gauge and 14-gauge steel. Both of these options are premium metals which can withstand any weather and wear or tear over a long period of time. However, people new to carports or metal buildings may have questions about gauge.
Gauge stands for, “the thickness, size, or capacity of something, especially as a standard measure, in particular.” In the case of metal buildings, steel gauge means the thickness and strength of the steel components of that structure. Hence, the thicker the framing (the smaller the number), the more strength, and the value it adds to the overall property.

What sort of additional features does Texas weather demand?
Texas is known for its extreme weather conditions, so, carports in Texas require stronger more durable metal buildings, that Carport1 offers, which can withstand weather and also last longer.
The strength of the metal building for you is determined by various factors.
Roof Styles Recommended for Texas Residents.
Carport1 offers three styles of strong and attractive roof design, all of which are permitted in Texas. When customizing your Carport1 steel building, carport, barn and other structure, consider which roof best fits your requirements for weather, use, property and protection. The style of the roof also determines the dead load and live load of the structure. Anyone in Texas can consider installing a metal building with either of these 3 roof styles.

VERTICAL ROOF STYLE – BEST
Vertical roof style is an A-frame design that works best for harsh climate conditions, such as, heavy snowfall and torrential rain. The vertical roof panel allows snow and water to slide easily off the roof with zero residues. In vertical roof style, the panels on the roof are oriented in a vertical orientation along the width of the structure.
BOXED EAVE STYLE – BETTER
Boxed Eave style, also an A-frame design, is the roof style which has roof panels that are laid horizontally along the length of the carport. This is a more affordable than vertical roof styling. The roof style works best in the moderate climate with the occasional heavy winds or gust.
REGULAR – GOOD
Regular style roof is the most common and economical choice for carports and metal buildings. These metal roofs tend to be lighter than other roof styles. The corrugated ridges run from end to end and they work great in an area with mild weather. This roof style is perfect for protecting your vehicle from direct sunlight or mellow rain/snow.

Additional support

Gable ends
Gable ends are a design feature that increase coverage to your metal carport and building. Triangular in shape, Carport1's attractive all-metal sheet is tightly attached to the roof and provides additional structural support.
Metal carports and metal buildings with gable ends are recommended for many parts of Texas where harsh weather occurs. Ask about the Carport1 difference.

Panels
Carport1 offers optional all-steel panels on the sides of steel frames for added structural support and strength in our metal and steel carports, garages, barns, RV Covers and other structures. If you live in a section of Texas that encounters heavy wind and rain typical of tornadoes and hurricanes, we recommend adding panels to outdoor metal structures.
Bows and trusses
Carport1 uses architectural bows and trusses to strengthen and stabilize the roofs of its quality metal buildings. Generally, metal structure with a width size of 24 ft. will include a bow, and those wider than 24 ft. will feature a truss. These features are important for residents of Texas who experience heavy snowfall or heavy rain.
