Custom Carport DIY 101: What to Consider

• Choose a closed or open air design.  Do you like to work outside? Create half walls and gables to let the sun and the summer breeze in while you work. Looking for a closed-in workspace? Add multiple windows and garage doors to the sides of your custom carport to let that breeze come through when you’re working in your studio on a hot day.
• Do you need extra space for your workbench, for all your tools, for your vehicles, or for your sports equipment? Elephant Structures easy-to-use custom carport design software lets you alter every dimension of your carport.  Our website can even calculate the space you need based on the make and model of your car.
• What kind of inclement weather do you expect? Fortunately, all Elephant Structures custom carports are built to stand against the elements. Wind rated up to 120 mph, our certified steel structures will protect your workspace from tropical storms and blizzards alike. Upgrade to 12 gauge certified steel to receive a warranty and to be assured that your carport will withstand the storm of the century.
