Carports
You have a few options when it comes to sheltering your most valuable toys. A prefabricated garage or other enclosed steel structure are reliable options for protecting them from serious damage. But if you’re working with a limited budget, limited space, or an enclosed building is unnecessary, your best option might be a steel carport. Carports are usually open on four sides with a roof to protect all of your vehicles from inclement weather.

Customizing Your Carport Height, Width and Length
Working with General Steel is a collaborative process that ensures that your final product reflects your specific needs. The process starts with a two-way conversation between you and our experienced team. We want to know exactly how you will be using your metal carport, how it will fit on your property, and your ideas for interior and exterior design, among other factors. We then research the location of the carport to ensure that it’s equipped to withstand the wind and snow loads of your area.
Once we get an idea of what carport kit best suits your project, we work with you to add any available customization options. The ease of steel construction allows us to modify configurations and add further customizations without breaking your budget. From design to construction, we provide the materials and expertise to transform a building kit into a reliable carport.

While all of our carport solutions are held to the highest of standards, the I-beam carport is specifically pre-engineered for durability and backed by our 50-year warranty.
