Why Choose a Metal Carport from BMC?
Metal carports are a versatile, low-maintenance, and cost-effective solution for adding coverage and increasing property value. At BMC, you’ll find a variety of roof styles — Vertical, Boxed-Eave, and Regular — each designed to meet different needs and preferences.
Let’s break down the differences and benefits of each:
1. Vertical Roof Carports (12’x20′ to 24’x50′)
The vertical roof style is the top-tier option for maximum durability and water/snow runoff. The ridges of the roof panels run vertically, allowing rain, snow, and debris to slide off easily. This makes vertical roof carports ideal for areas that experience heavy precipitation or strong winds.
Benefits:
-
Best drainage – no pooling water or snow accumulation
-
Heavy-duty construction with added bracing
-
Long-lasting and low maintenance
-
Ideal for large vehicles or multi-purpose storage
Customization Ideas:
-
Add an enclosed storage room on the back
-
Integrate solar panels for eco-efficiency
-
Match the trim and color to your home or outbuildings
2. Boxed-Eave Roof Carports (12’x20′ to 24’x35′)
Also known as A-frame carports, the boxed-eave style has a clean, classic look that pairs well with many residential homes. Unlike the vertical roof, the panels run horizontally, which can reduce costs slightly while still offering solid protection.
Benefits:
-
Aesthetic appeal similar to traditional house roofs
-
Budget-friendly while maintaining strength
-
Great for moderate climates
-
Easy to customize and expand
Customization Ideas:
-
Include a partial enclosure for tool or lawn storage
-
Extend side panels for added protection
-
Install lighting or motion sensors for added security
3. Regular Roof Carports (12’x20′ to 24’x35′)
The most economical of the three, the regular roof carport features a rounded edge with horizontal paneling. This design is perfect for budget-conscious homeowners or anyone needing basic coverage for vehicles, boats, or equipment.
Benefits:
-
Most affordable option
-
Quick and simple installation
-
Traditional rounded shape
-
Works well in areas with minimal snowfall
Customization Ideas:
-
Add side panels or gables for extra shade
-
Enclose one end for wind protection
-
Use as a base for a multi-purpose outdoor shelter
