Safety Information
Always prioritize safety during assembly and use of the carport. Failure to follow safety guidelines can result in injury or damage to the product.
- Wind Resistance: This carport is designed to withstand winds up to 12 Beaufort Scale winds after being properly secured. In areas prone to high winds, it is highly recommended to use additional sandbags, concrete anchors, and guylines to enhance stability.
- Snow Load: The roof has a snow load capacity of 14,000 lbs. While robust, it is advisable to clear excessive snow accumulation to prevent potential structural stress, especially during prolonged heavy snowfall.
- Assembly Safety: Assembly requires at least 4 people. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment, including gloves, and use ladders and drills safely. Ensure the assembly area is clear of obstructions.
- Site Preparation: Install the carport on a level grass ground, level concrete surface, or level gravel surface to ensure proper stability and drainage.
- Component Inspection: Before assembly, inspect all components for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. Do not proceed with assembly if parts are significantly damaged. Contact customer support for replacements.

Usage and Operation
The GarveeLife Metal Carport provides a durable and spacious outdoor shelter for a variety of vehicles and equipment. Its large dimensions (19'8'' L x 19'3'' W x 12'8'' H) make it suitable for:
- Two standard cars
- Full-sized pickup trucks
- Boats
- Tractors and other agricultural machinery
- ATVs and small trailers
The slightly angled roof design effectively sheds water, preventing accumulation and contributing to the carport's load capacity, especially in snowy conditions. The triple rust-resistant coating on the frame extends the lifespan of the structure, ensuring long-term protection for your assets.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and continued performance of your GarveeLife Metal Carport.
- Periodic Inspection: Regularly check all bolts, screws, and connections to ensure they remain tight and secure. Tighten any loose fasteners as needed.
- Cleanliness: Keep the roof and frame free from debris, leaves, and excessive dirt. A gentle rinse with water can help maintain its appearance and prevent material degradation.
- Snow Removal: While the carport has a high snow load capacity, it is recommended to remove heavy snow accumulation from the roof to minimize prolonged stress on the structure.
- Rust Prevention: Although the frame has a triple rust-resistant coating, inspect for any signs of rust, especially in areas where the coating might be scratched or damaged. Touch up with rust-inhibiting paint if necessary.
- Anchoring System: Periodically check the integrity of your anchoring system (sandbags, concrete, guylines) to ensure it remains effective, especially after severe weather events.
