Triple Carports and Triple Wide Metal Carports Defined Triple carports or triple-wide carports are metal carport shelters that are designed to cover up to three cars, trucks, or other types of vehicles. As a general rule, most carport manufacturers in the United States refer to their standard 26' wide to 30' wide units as triple carports. While these units start at 26' wide, we always recommend 30' wide units for up to three cars as they provide ample space to get into and out of the vehicle. An 26' wide unit is just enough room for three compact cars and that may work for your current shelter needs but we recommend that you also consider possible upgrades to your vehicles in the future.

Side Height - In most areas, we offer side heights up to 14' tall. Certification - Depending on your state or local code requirements, some units can be purchased as non-certified.
For those areas that require building permits, certified is the only option. Certification means that the unit is built to withstand the wind and snow load requirements specified by your state/local building codes.

How are Triple-Wide Carports and 3-Car Carports Utilized? Our 26' wide to 30'wide triple metal carports products have a variety of practical uses. Customers utilize them for automobile shelters, boat storage, agricultural equipment storage storage, feed shelters and much more. We always recommend a unit 30' if you plan on enclosing the side walls as a wider unit is needed in order to open your vehicle's doors inside the partially enclosed unit.
Side height is another consideration. Our triple carports can be enclosed later to create a fully enclosed garage. Most garage doors are 7' tall so we recommend at least a side height of 8' and 9' is better if you plan on enclosing the unit later. Other uses for these triple metal carports or 3-car carports are metal shelters for farm animals, patio covers, large equipment shelters, picnic shelters, and feed shelters/barns.
