Beyond Shelter: Enhancing Your Home with a Double Carport Oasis
Double carports are more than simply a space to store your car undercover. With origins dating back to the 20th century, carports are also a versatile and practical solution for outdoor entertaining. Melbourne Garages double carports are ideal to protect your boat, car, caravan, or motorbike from the weather. Affordable and stylish, our carports can be designed to suit the style of your home, including hip roof, skillion, gable, or Dutch gable roof.
What Is A Double Carport?
A double carport is designed to protect vehicles to prevent damage and wear from UV rays, hail, or rain. Melbourne Garages’ double carports consist of roofing, open sides, and support structures crafted from steel. Double carports can be attached to a building or stand independently. Unlike garages, carports are easier to install and less expensive to build.
6 Benefits Of A Double Carport
1. Shelter from the weather
A double carport protects your vehicle from the weather and can serve as an outside entertaining venue. For summer socialising, a double carport can easily fit chairs, tables, an esky or two and a BBQ. During winter, a double carport can serve as shelter from the weather with outside heaters and a firepit close by. Double carports can also be transformed into an outdoor play area for your children.
2. Versatile designs
Melbourne Garages double carport options include different roofing styles and a wide range of Colorbond steel colours. Our wide variety of designs range from simple to more complex. All our carport builds can be fully tailored with custom designs, a popular choice. This versatility ensures your structure will be unique to your requirements and made to complement the aesthetics of your home.
3. Affordable alternative to a garage
Carports offer an affordable alternative to building a new garage. Melbourne Garages carports range from $1,000 to $20,000, while a garage can cost between $30,000 to $100,000.
As an inexpensive alternative to a garage structure, double carports also save you money on vehicle repairs caused by inclement weather conditions.
4. Increases your property value
A double carport protects your vehicle and can add value to your property. Extra parking space undercover is an appealing proposition for potential buyers, with well-designed carports now being a sought-after feature in many homeowners’ wish lists.
5. Easy to install
Compared to garages, double carports are relatively quick and easy to install. This saves you time and money on installation costs and means your vehicle can be sheltered as soon as possible.
6. Energy efficient
