Oak Framed Carport Kits

Oak Framed Car Ports

An oak framed car port and a garage will basically do the same thing, protect your car from the elements. So let’s look at the differences to help you decide which is best for you. 

The main function of a car port is to protect whatever is under it from the weather. This could be rain, strong sunlight or snow. It’s important that the car port looks attractive and compliments your house. Trade Oak car ports are made from high quality European green oak that looks great and will last for generations. 

An oak car port has open sides making access easy. It can be a stand alone building or attached to your house which can be handy when it’s raining because it allows you to get from your car and indoors without getting wet. It can also protect your vehicle from direct sunlight which can affect the bodywork. A car port allows air to circulate around a car, helping to dry moisture on your vehicle.

Depending on space and requirements the car port can have multiple bays and can include a closed area for storage.
