Strength and Durability

One of the most popular benefits of purchasing a steel carport kit is its amazing quality and strength. Instead of wasting money on maintenance or replacing it after a storm hits your area, you will only have to build a SteelMaster carport one time and it will last for decades.

Unlike a cheap DIY carport made from other materials, a steel carport is able to survive in all kinds of weather. It will not rot, warp, buckle, twist, or crack.

These structures are coated with Galvalume Plus, which is a zinc and aluminum mixture that resists the extreme heat of the sun and protects the steel from rusting or warping.

“I’m very satisfied with the carport overall. I also liked the fact that the company I chose to work with uses a Galvalume Plus coating."

Disaster Resistant

Our metal custom carports are also corrosion-resistant, fire-resistant, and cannot be destroyed by termites. SteelMaster’s DIY metal carports are engineered to survive some of Mother Nature’s most deadly weather including hurricanes, tornadoes, heavy snow storms, hail, and even fire.

Many of the other carports on the market are built with thin materials that are vulnerable to strong winds and heavy loads.

However, SteelMaster’s experienced design specialists will calculate the gauge of steel you need based on the size and configuration of your carport and your location’s wind and snow load requirements.

The possibilities for SteelMaster metal carports are endless. No matter what needs to be covered, trust our carports to protect your most valuable possessions.
