Refer to the kit sizes, as we offer are overall sizes so posts are set in from depths of kits. You’ll need to clear a place large enough for your construction as well as for the metal carport to be installed. Begin by determining the width of the space to determine whether you will be able to create a level area large enough. Then, take a measurement of the length of the space and double-check that it is level.
When you measure for space, make sure that any vehicle or equipment you want to store in the carport, garage, or RV carport is shorter than the structure’s height. They are engineered to heights based on building codes so carport and RV kit heights vary. Typically 12’-0” max on carports and 15’-0” on RV kits. If you intend to enclose the carport or RV carport in the future, make sure the building is large enough to allow a garage door that fits the vehicle.
