16×20 Carport

The 16x20 metal carport package is one of the most popular choices for sheltering a vehicle or equipment. Steel I-beam carports from General Steel are a responsible choice if you live in a region with volatile weather conditions due to their strength & durability. In addition to preventing hail or wind damage to your vehicle, carports limit your vehicle’s exposure to sun & frost. A 16x20 carport can also serve as a storage space, saving you money on renting a storage unit.
