Carports with Storage Rooms

Carports with enclosed storage rooms at one end, a combined space for covered parking and a lockable room for tools, bikes, mowers and gear.

A carport with a storage room does two jobs with one roof. Cars and trucks sit under the open side while tools, bikes and seasonal items stay locked and dry in the closed end. Owners in Nashville like the combination because it makes the most of a small footprint and keeps clutter out of sight.

We plan the closed room at the end, pick framing and siding that match the rest of the carport and set a door size that suits what you store. Floors can be concrete or framed, and shelving, hooks and lighting are planned inside. We plan the roof as one structure, so the room and the open bay share the same beam lines and drainage. The storage end of a combined building deserves the same care as a small shed. A raised or insulated floor, a sealed door and vents high and low keep tools and seasonal items dry. We plan the wall that divides the carport from the room with weather in mind, because blowing rain will hit it. Inside, a few strong shelves, a pegboard and a bright light make the room useful from the first day.
