Location

Carports are free-standing timber structures, which can be installed anywhere in your property. To make the parking easier, you can install a carport in a way to avoid reverse parking. If your driveway or garden allows installing a drive-through carport, using one end for driving in and the other for driving out.

Single carport vs. double carport

Do you hate tight parking spaces? Or do you even struggle to park into a standard-sized parking space? If so, a carport is a perfect solution. Order a bespoke carport that is a bit wider than a standard single carport, or even opt for a double carport! This way you will avoid parking in tight spaces forever!

Lighting

To make the manoeuvre in or out of the carport even easier (especially in the dark), take care of the lighting. Good lighting helps to overlook the parking area, preventing accidents. If you want to make the parking even easier, install driveway lighting as well.
