Local Carports & Pergolas in Taringa QLD

Difference between carports and garages.

You might think that carports and garages serve the same purpose. They are both an important element to your home that allows you to store vehicles and keep them out of the weather. The main difference is how these structures are constructed.

Garages are enclosed spaces with walls and doors. They are either free standing or attached to your building. Garages are effective in storing items and are more secure than carports. You can lock your garage door and be sure that your car is safe from unwanted visitors.

Carports are simple, covered structures that are open from at least two sides. They provide an affordable way to protect your car from the elements. Carports can typically be constructed in less than a day and cost significantly less than a garage. Custom carports and pergolas complement each other very well and can add a cozy vibe to your home. Steel and metal carports are just as effective as garages in blocking heat.
