Metal Carports
At American Metal Garages, we’ve been putting up metal and steel carports for years — from simple single-vehicle covers to fully customized multi-bay shelters. Whether you need a quick, affordable way to keep your truck out of the sun or a heavy-duty setup for RVs, boats, or farm equipment, our carports are built to handle it.
Every steel carport we sell is engineered for your location, designed to stand up to the weather, and backed by warranties that mean something. Explore our wide variety of carports for sale or start designing our custom carport with our easy-to-use 3D design tool.

Advantages of Purchasing a Metal Carport
Metal carports are a practical and affordable way to protect your vehicles, equipment, and other belongings from the elements. Their durable construction and versatile designs make them a popular choice for property owners looking for long-lasting protection.
Weather Protection
Metal carports provide excellent protection against rain, snow, hail, and UV rays, ensuring your vehicles and equipment stay safe year-round. Unlike fabric or wooden carports, steel structures can withstand extreme weather conditions without warping, rotting, or tearing. This level of durability helps extend the lifespan of your assets by shielding them from rust, fading, and other damage caused by prolonged exposure to harsh weather conditions.
Affordability
Installing a metal carport is far more affordable than building a traditional garage while still offering reliable coverage and protection. Prefabricated steel carport designs reduce labor and material costs, making metal carports an economical choice for any budget. Additionally, their low maintenance requirements and long lifespan save money on repairs and replacements over time, offering incredible value for your investment.
Versatile Applications
Fast and Easy Installation
Metal carports, especially prefab options, are designed for easy and fast installation. The pre-engineered components come ready to assemble, drastically reducing construction time compared to traditional structures. Most installations can be completed within a few days, minimizing disruption to your daily activities and allowing you to start using your steel carport almost immediately.
Minimal Upkeep
Personalized and Flexible Designs
Metal carports are highly customizable, offering flexibility to suit your specific needs and preferences. Choose from a range of sizes, roof styles, colors, and additional features like side panels or enclosed sections for added protection. This level of personalization ensures your carport meets both functional and aesthetic preferences, enhancing the overall look and utility of your space.
