Customizable Carports for Rural and Urban Areas

Carport customization is our area of expertise here at Carports and More. We allow you to take complete control over the dimensions, color, and windows/doors configurations of your metal building with our garage and carport designer tool.

Size is likely the most important factor when you’re planning your steel carport. If you’re in the countryside or a rural area, space is likely on your side. In this case you can design a carport as large as you need it. On the website we can take orders for designs up to 30’ x 60’ with leg heights up to 12’, but if you need something larger, just give us a call and we’ll help you arrange it. If you’re living in the city, we know that your available space can often be limited. If you’re looking for a smaller shed or carport, we can supply them as small as 10’ x 10’ with leg heights on just 5’

We have the carport you’re looking for, whether it’s a metal carport or a lightweight portable carport. Each metal carport comes in a 14-gauge or 12-gauge frame (14g = 2-1/2” x 2-1/2″ galvanized steel) (12g = 2-1/4″ x 2-1/4″ galvanized steel). The 12-gauge is 20 percent stronger than the 14-gauge.

Urban customers often approach us looking for a safe solution for storing valuable items like vehicles, and RVs. A fully enclosed metal building from CPM can meet that need. When designing your carport, select all four walls, add any doors and windows that you want, and you’ll have a secure storage facility.

If you’re out in the country and security isn’t a big concern for you, you can simply opt for an open sided carport – this will give you shelter from sun and rain, as well as easy, unimpeded access.

Metal carports do need to be properly anchored, but the type of anchors you need will vary with the surface you plan to install it on. There are different anchors, or augers, available depending on whether you plan to install on concrete, asphalt, sand, or grass and dirt.

Perfect for Residential Use

Contrary to popular opinion, carport garages in Kentucky aren’t only for people who can’t afford a regular brick and mortar garage. Our metal carports in Kentucky suit many people’s needs because of their light weight and versatility. Another versatile option are carport kits, which can be installed and dismantled relatively easily. Because of the flexibility of our options, we have thousands of satisfied customers every year.

The ever rising cost of cars and trucks is a cause for concern for many without garages or other secure locations for storage, not only for protection from theft, but also for protection from weather damage, too.

Agriculture is at the heart of the Kentucky economy, and the state’s farmers are major producers of corn, wheat, soybeans, and tobacco.

Factors to Consider When Buying a Carport in Kentucky

Kansas boasts a huge variety in terrain, and with that comes varying weather conditions and differing surface qualities on which a carport can be built. Because of this there are some factors you should definitely consider when building your Carport in Kentucky. Keep reading to find out more.

Ensure That You Install Sufficient Anchors to a Strong Surface

While not a part of the original “tornado alley”, Kentucky is on the road to becoming a part of what is being referred to as the “new tornado alley”. With this in mind, it is extremely important to keep your carport anchored to a strong surface like asphalt or concrete if you have the ability to. If you don’t already have a slab laid, it is a relatively simple process to undertake, and it will provide you with the strongest possible surface on which to build your metal building in KY.

While we can install carports on almost any surface, we do recommend a concrete base for anybody concerned about high winds. When combining the strong floor with the proper concrete anchors, your metal building will be as sturdy as possible.

Consider What Your Weather Protection Needs Are

As well as the risk of high winds, Kentucky can also suffer from other extremes of weather such as hail. If you’re planning to keep valuable items in your carport such as RVs, boats, classic cars or anything along those lines, you’re going to be best off ordering your carport with Enclosed Sidewalls.

Serious hail events can see ice the size of tennis balls and even baseballs. This type of precipitation can cause havoc for the unprepared, with significant damage being caused to property, and could even result in complete loss from an insurance standpoint. If you go for an open sided carport, you’ll protect your property from anything falling vertically, but if the wind is blowing the hail sideways, there will be no protection, and your property will be totally exposed. Of course if you’re storing lumber, for example, this isn’t likely to cause you concern, but if you have valuable vintage cars, or expensive farm machinery, a fully enclosed metal building is your best bet.

Hail isn’t the only weather related hazard that can be mitigated with a fully enclosed metal building. A hurricane or high wind event can blow all kinds of other debris around, and large debris can also be particularly dangerous for expensive items.

Consider Installing Climate Control for Year Round Worker Occupancy

If you’re just looking for additional home or garage storage space, you’re probably not concerned with the temperature inside your carport or metal building in Kentucky. However, if you’re planning on using your steel building for commercial reasons, it’s likely that you’ll have employees spending significant time inside of the structure. For this reason, it may be prudent (or in many cases necessary under appropriate employment laws) to install a climate control system

Kentucky summers can see temperatures breaking into triple digits, and an enclosed metal building will feel like an oven in these conditions. We suggest that if you want to keep workers comfortable, that you properly insulate the building to ensure optimum thermal efficiency, and then install a HVAC system to control the climate.

Some business owners don’t have workers in their buildings for extended periods, but do work with sensitive materials, crops, and products that require specific temperature regulation to prevent spoiling. A climate control system will definitely be important for you in this case.

No matter the reason you have for installing HVAC in your metal building, note that only this really only applies to fully enclosed metal buildings with all four sidewalls.

Permitting and Land Usage of Metal Buildings in Kentucky

We can’t stress enough just how dynamic metal buildings are. They can be used for pretty much anything a brick and mortar, or wooden building can, with incredible durability, and an exceptionally fast build time.

On top of that, the ordering process is so simple, it’s as easy as shopping for a pair of shoes on your favorite fashion website. However, unlike shopping for clothes, you should note that it is imperative that you successfully apply for the relevant permits for your metal building before placing your order. We cannot stress enough how important it is to have the required paperwork in hand prior to buying a carport from us.

Just like any other structure, Kentucky requires a filed permit before construction can begin on any carport or steel building. Building codes here are as rigorous as they are in any other state, and they do include carports.

While these rules are important, they aren’t too tricky. Some quick research on the Department of Housing, Buildings and Construction website should get you all the information you need to get started with your application. Of course, your chosen use for your carport or steel building in Kentucky will affect the permit type you need to apply for, so bear this in mind.

After you’ve applied for, and been granted the required permits, your metal building project is usually able to begin immediately.
