Double-Wide Carports
Double carports (or double-wide carports) are metal shelters built to cover two vehicles (cars, trucks, etc.). As a rule, most manufacturers refer to their standard 18′- to 24′-wide units as double carports or 2-car carports. Double carport width starts at 18′, but we always recommend going with a width of at least 20′ to allow for enough space to be able to move around each vehicle. An 18′-wide unit may adequately cover two smaller cars, but it doesn’t leave you much wiggle room. We’d encourage you to choose a wider building for this reason; doing so will also allow you the space to be able to accommodate larger vehicles in the future.


Double Carport Sizes
Most double carports have a standard length of 21’, but you’ll have to decide how wide your metal carport needs to be based on the vehicles you plan to house. To cover two smaller cars, we recommend double carport dimensions of at least 20’x21’. Also, if you want to enclose the carport and turn it into a garage, 20’x21’ is as narrow as you can go and still have space for two garage doors.
The next larger size is the 22’x21’, which provides an extra bit of wiggle room. The largest typical width for a double carport is 24’x21’, which is great if you have two larger vehicles or if you just want plenty of space, so you don’t have to worry about banging a car door.
Another option is to go with a longer carport. Standard length starts at 21’, but you can increase by 5′ increments to whatever length you like. This is nice if you have a really long truck, or if you’re going to enclose your carport and just want to have a few extra feet of storage space for shelving, supplies, or whatever.
Double Carport Plans
The style of double carport you should choose depends on the functionality and options you desire, as well as your budget. The regular (rounded) roof style is the most economical. There are also two A-frame style roof options: the boxed eave style with horizontal metal sheeting, and the vertical style with vertical metal sheeting. The vertical style roof is the premium option because it is stronger than other roof styles, and the vertical orientation of the sheeting prevents accumulation of snow or pooling of rainwater. You can opt to leave the ends and sides of your double carport open, enclose any walls you choose or go for the full enclosure to create a secure double garage.


Double Carport Prices
How much will a double carport cost? The answer to that question depends on which dimensions you choose for length, width, and height, as well as which roof style you go with. You can leave the carport open, or you can choose to partially or fully enclose the walls. There are also other customization options to consider. Will you go with the standard 14-GA tubing, or will you opt for the thicker, stronger 12-GA frame? Do you want to add garage doors, walk-in doors, or windows?

Another good option to consider is the ability to add some utility building space to your double carport. You can enclose just the back area of the double carport, creating a shed for secure storage. These utility carport/combo buildings are a very popular option as they are both cost-effective and versatile. Take a moment and explore this option on the Carport Central metal utility carports page!
