Setup and Assembly

Assembly of the Garvee Carport is designed to be straightforward with clearly labeled parts and user-friendly instructions. It is recommended to have at least two people for assembly, especially when raising the frame and attaching the tarp.

Step-by-Step Assembly:

1. Assemble the Roof Frame: Connect the designated poles and connectors to form the roof structure. Ensure all connections are secure.
2. Cover the Roof Frame with Tarpaulin: Carefully drape the main tarp over the assembled roof frame. Secure it using the provided ball bungees through the grommets and around the frame poles.
3. Install Steel Pipe Pillars: Attach the vertical support poles to the roof frame.
4. Secure the Carport: Use ground nails (stakes) and sandbags (if applicable) to firmly anchor the carport to the ground. Utilize wind ropes for additional stability.
