A carport is a great way to protect your caravan from the elements and keep it in good condition. Here are a few tips on how to choose a shade shed and install the perfect carport for your caravan:

1. Choose the Right Size Carport

The first step is to choose a carport that is the right size for your caravan. You need to make sure that the carport is long enough and wide enough to accommodate your caravan, and that the shade shed has enough headroom for your caravan to fit underneath.  Some caravans have accessories such as air conditioning units, GPS or pop tops so the height of your carport and shade shed is essential.

2. Choose the Right Location

Once you have chosen a carport, you need to choose the right location to install your shade shed. The carport should be located on a level surface, and it should be away from trees and other objects that could damage your caravan. Take into consideration how your vehicle will access your shade shed - will you drive straight into your carport or will you need to pivot  and turn your caravan into your carport for cover?

3. Install Your Carport

Once you have chosen a location for your carport, you need to install it. You can either install the carport yourself or hire a professional to do it for you. If you are installing the carport yourself, be sure to have the correct tools, a helping hand and take note of the weather conditions when assembling your shade shed.

4. Maintain Your Carport

Once your carport is installed, you need to maintain it regularly. This includes cleaning the carport and inspecting it for damage. You should also seal the carport every few years to protect it from the elements.

Additional Tips

• Choose a carport that is made from steel. This will help to ensure that the carport will last for many years.

• Consider the type of roof for your carport. A steel roof on your shade shed will provide additional protection for your caravan from the weather elements.
