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
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.
Weatherproof
Every side and edge gets completely sealed to keep water from leaking in or insects from sneaking into your garage.
Fire Resistant
Metal won’t burn and has an incredibly high melting point, making your garage far safer during wildfires.
Pest-Proof
Metal naturally resists fungus and gives termites nowhere to build their colonies.
Low Maintenance
Our steel garages use 100% galvanized steel, which fights off rust and stays cleaner longer.
Sustainable Building
Steel structures represent an environmentally responsible choice.
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.
Customization: Design Your Ideal 1 Car Carport
Every single car metal carport should be as unique as your property. We offer a full range of customization options to suit your needs:
- 12- & 14-Gauge Steel Frame

FAQs – Single Car Carports
Before you buy, explore these essential FAQs to understand the sizes, features, and benefits of single car carports.
A single car carport is a covered structure designed to protect a single vehicle from elements such as sun, rain, and snow. It typically consists of a roof supported by posts or columns without enclosing walls.
One-car carports typically range in size from 12 feet wide by 20 feet long to 18 feet wide by 30 feet long. However, the dimensions can vary based on specific requirements and the size of the vehicle it needs to accommodate.
The cost of building a one car carport can vary significantly based on several factors, including materials, size, design complexity, location, and installation charges. On average, prices can range from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars. A basic metal carport might start at a lower price point, while custom-built or larger carports can be more expensive.
Installation difficulty can vary based on factors like the type of carport, the materials used, and the size. Some kits are designed for easy DIY assembly, while others might require professional installation.
Consider the size needed for your vehicle, the durability of the materials, local weather conditions, aesthetic preferences, and whether you want a freestanding or attached structure.
