Wooden carports look elegant and also make efficient use of the available space. One of the best options for you to explore is the Carport Double + Shed. Being an ideal choice if you have sufficient space in your garden, this carport has sufficient area for two cars and a closed shed which can be used for storing your tools, equipment or machinery.
It can also be used as a warehouse making your carport a multipurpose solution. This two-in-one structure, combining a classical wooden carport with an additional shed allows you to optimally use the area in your garden. Installing this double carport means you can park two cars in a single carport without the need for an additional one for your second car.
An excellent feature of this double carport is the ability to park the cars either from the front or the rear. It has an opening on both the sides making it convenient to easily manoeuvre the cars and drive them into or out of the garage from either side. The compact structure enables you to accommodate two cars, and the shed can be used for storing anything that you cannot keep inside your home.
The roof of the structure is made combining three roof frame triangles. The middle gable reinforces the structure and makes it more stable and robust. The roof and the floor have 20mm tongue and groove boards and the shed has double glazed windows and doors. The entire structure is highly flexible, meaning you can easily swap the wooden carport with the shed and vice-versa. Similarly, the walls of the shed can also be interchanged. The carport is made of slow growing Scandinavian spruce or Nordic pine. This kind of timber naturally insulates the area inside the shed where you can store things that could not be accommodated in your house.
