Solar panels could change the future of carports
Carports are an evolving breed.
Since their inception, these detachable units have become more than just a storage place for cars or motorcycles. While the delineation of use for each unit falling under the discretion of the individual owner, carports are flexible as they are durable. At carport.com, our customers have found an array of uses for their customizable carport that have emerged as much more than steel canopies for storage.
Our units are perfectly outfitted to accommodate a partition for workshops or play areas. With proper paneling, these units are also pet friendly enclaves for your furry friends during those scorching hot summer days. During the weekends, our carports have also been transformed into impromptu bazaars as our customers have found these metal structures make the ideal spot for yard sales.
Metal buildings create memorable moments
Some of our customers’ most memorable moments have come from spending summer evenings under a customizable boxed eave roof, socializing with their neighbors, regaling one another with candid tales of yesteryear. It’s amazing how our petty differences can be put aside once we find common ground with one another and at Carport.com, we provide proper protection and a welcomed reprieve to enjoy those similarities with a sturdy single and double-wide metal building.
We realize that the possibilities with one of our metal carports and truly endless, as well as everchanging. While carports are simplistic in design, they’re ingenuity allows for adaptations and additions to complement emerging technologies. Solar panel carports, for example, could soon forever change how these metal structures are used. While they are primarily used by commercial enterprises to provide protection for employees’ cars while generating electricity, homeowners are now realizing their intrinsic worth. Since these units have inherent advantages over ground-mounted traditional angular installs, we feel that solar panel carports will only increase in popularity over time.

Affordability meets style, customization
If your heart is still dead-set on installing solar panels, we won’t publicly chastise you just yet. With so many intangibles involved with the installation of solar panels on carports, we cannot advocate for the addition of these energy cells on any of our branded products without thorough research and consultation with a qualified contractor.
