Single Car Metal Carports

A single-car carport provides protective shelter for your truck, car, motorcycle, and other vehicles, shielding them from various weather conditions. Constructed from durable metal, these carports accommodate one vehicle and provide exceptional protection against wind, snow, rain, and other severe elements. The steel single-car carports also protect your automobiles and prized possessions from the damaging UV rays of the sun, helping them last longer. Whether it's your boat, bike, motorhome, or ATV, each can find secure coverage beneath your pre-fabricated one-car metal carport. Furthermore, a range of sizes and style options is available, providing the flexibility to customize according to your specific needs.

What is A Single Car Carport?

A single car carport (also called a one-car carport or 1-car metal carport) is a steel structure designed to cover one vehicle. It consists of a metal roof supported by strong steel posts, with optional side panels or fully enclosed walls.

These structures are ideal for:

  • Cars & SUVs
  • Pickup trucks
  • Motorcycles
  • ATVs & lawn equipment
  • Boats & trailers
  • Seasonal outdoor items

For homeowners wondering, "How big is a one-car carport?" the answer varies by vehicle and space needs—but we offer flexible sizing to match any setup.

Roof Options for Single Car Carports

Choosing the right roof style is essential for durability, weather protection, and the overall look of your 1-car steel carport. At Viking Metal Garages, every single car carport is available in three roofing styles—each designed for specific climates and budgets.

Vertical Roof Style

Vertical Roof Style

It has extra braces and trusses, making it durable and long-lasting during harsh weather conditions. The vertical ridges slide off most debris, making them easy to clean and maintain.

Single Car Carport Sizes

Single-car carports come in various sizes to accommodate different vehicle dimensions and fit within the available space.

Here are some standard sizes for single-car carports:

Width: Single-car carports can range from about 9 to 12 feet in width. A standard car is approximately 6 to 7 feet wide, so a carport width of 10 to 12 feet would allow for comfortable parking and movement around the vehicle.

Length: The length of a single-car carport can vary greatly based on the depth required to accommodate different vehicle sizes, additional storage needs, or other intended uses. Generally, lengths range from approximately 18 to 24 feet.

Height: The height of the carport depends on the type of vehicle you want to shelter and any additional considerations, such as storage racks or overhead clearance. Heights typically range from 7 to 9 feet or more to comfortably accommodate most vehicles.

Remember that the exact size you need will depend on your vehicle's dimensions and whether you need extra space for storage or other purposes. If you have a larger vehicle or plan to use the carport for more than just parking, opt for a slightly larger size.
