With this knowledge, you will make a well-informed decision and choose a carport that will serve you for many years to come.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is a carport and why is it worth having one?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/en\/garages-and-carports\/\">A carport is a modern alternative to a traditional garage<\/a> \u2013 a lighter, more aesthetic, and often cheaper structure. It protects the vehicle from rain, snow, and UV rays, and in winter it reduces the risk of frozen windscreens, greatly improving everyday driving comfort, especially during the colder months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carports are available in two main types:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>freestanding<\/strong> \u2013 which can be placed almost anywhere on your plot, for example by the entrance or at the back of the house,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>lean-to<\/strong> \u2013 mounted directly against a wall of the building, allowing easy access from the house and making the best use of space.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"673\" src=\"https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-1024x673.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-48677\" srcset=\"https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-1024x673.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-300x197.jpg 300w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-768x505.jpg 768w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-1536x1010.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-2048x1347.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-400x263.jpg 400w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-600x395.jpg 600w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-800x526.jpg 800w, https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/000437-01-1200x789.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Expert opinion from BHB:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMore and more of our clients are choosing a carport instead of a brick-built garage, as this type of construction not only serves its protective function but also looks lighter and more modern. Additionally, it offers easy expansion possibilities \u2013 for example with a tool shed or a wood store.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wood or metal? A comparison of carports<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the ideal carport is not just about looks. It is a decision that should consider durability, ease of installation, resistance to weather conditions, and the possibility of personalisation. At BHB, we offer two fully professional solutions: <strong>wooden carports<\/strong> \u2013 classic, elegant, and natural, and <strong>MAFAL metal carports<\/strong> \u2013 modern, minimalist, and extremely durable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below you will find the advantages of each of these solutions \u2013 see which product will suit your property best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wooden carports from BHB \u2013 timeless classics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Wooden carports are perfect for those who appreciate the <strong>warmth of natural materials<\/strong> and an aesthetic that blends into traditional architecture.

For many of our clients, appearance is just as important as functionality \u2013 and here, wood is second to none<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/en\/garages-and-carports\/\">See our range of wooden carports.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">MAFAL metal carports \u2013 modernity that lasts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bertsch-holzbau.eu\/en\/mafal\/\">A metal carport from MAFAL meets the needs of clients<\/a> who value <strong>minimalism, functionality, and durability<\/strong>. This brand has been designed with modern architecture in mind \u2013 for both residential homes and commercial premises.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What can you expect from choosing MAFAL?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>construction made from 0.5 mm thick steel sheet \u2013 coated and corrosion-resistant,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>modern forms and clean lines,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>fully customisable \u2013 dimensions, layout, enclosure, colours, finish (including wood-effect finishes),<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>options with tool boxes, waste bin storage, bicycle parking,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>also available as enclosed storage units, bike boxes, or functional garden or business sets.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Expert opinion from BHB:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>We wanted the structure to be as durable as possible, but also flexible. The client can decide on every detail \u2013 from colour, to door layout, to mirrored windows or wood-effect panels. This is a carport that suits even the most modern villa<\/em>.\u201d<br><br><strong>Important!<\/strong><br>Wood effect in metal? MAFAL carports offer coatings in shades such as golden oak, winchester, walnut, or mahogany \u2013 imitating the texture of wood. This is the ideal solution for those who like the look of natural materials but want the durability of metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What to consider when choosing a carport?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing a carport is not just a question of looks. It is a long-term investment, so it is worth approaching it with care, considering a few practical aspects. Regardless of whether you choose a wooden carport or a metal one from MAFAL, your decision should be based on your real needs: the type of vehicle, plot conditions, local regulations, and the style of your home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Below we list four key criteria you should analyse before making a purchase:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Dimensions and number of vehicles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right dimensions is absolutely essential. The carport must provide not only parking space but also comfortable door opening, easy movement with shopping, and space for extra equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, <strong>the minimum carport dimensions<\/strong> are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>for one car<\/strong>: at least 3 x 5 m<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>for two cars<\/strong>: approximately 6 x 5.5 m<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you plan to build a shelter for one passenger car, an ideal choice would be, for example, the BHB 5052 P + 312 AN model. This wooden construction, measuring around 5 metres wide and 5.3 metres long, offers enough space to comfortably park the car, open the doors freely, and have some extra side clearance. It is a classic, aesthetic carport that will suit most home arrangements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who own an SUV, minibus or larger family car, we recommend a larger option \u2013 such as the 9XX model, which offers 7.5 metres of width and 6.6 metres of length, with a side clearance of almost 3 metres. This is a proposition for those who value space and convenient manoeuvring \u2013 regardless of weather conditions or vehicle size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, for fans of modern minimalism, the MAFAL 3550 + 20 PROST metal carport will be a perfect choice. This construction measures 5.5 x 5.5 metres, based on simple, geometric lines, with a flat roof with a gentle slope. It works brilliantly on plots with modern buildings \u2013 combining durability with aesthetics, while allowing you to personalise colours and details. An ideal option for those who want to combine functionality with an elegant style.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Expert tip from BHB:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201c<em>We always advise clients to plan a carport with a bit of extra space \u2013 it is worth anticipating a place for bicycles, firewood, waste bins or a tool box. In practice, every metre makes a difference<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Type of roof \u2013 functionality and aesthetics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The choice of roof affects not only the appearance of the shelter but also its resistance to rain, snow, and wind. It is also a matter of compliance with local building regulations and the style of the building. At BHB and MAFAL there are several popular roofing solutions available \u2013 each with its own advantages and applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The most popular roofs<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>flat roof<\/strong> \u2013 minimalist appearance, the simplest and most economical to install, great for modern houses. However, you must remember to provide the right slope and water drainage system.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>pitched (gable) roof<\/strong> \u2013 a more traditional form, particularly popular in combination with houses covered with ceramic or bituminous tiles. Thanks to its steeper angle, it effectively drains water and snow, which is important in regions with heavy precipitation.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>mono-pitched (lean-to) roof<\/strong> \u2013 a practical solution when the shelter adjoins a building or garage. Thanks to its simple construction, it is often used on narrow plots or in urban terraced developments.<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Interesting fact:<\/strong> pitched roofs create additional space under the ceiling \u2013 ideal for storing less frequently used items such as skis, ladders, or seasonal garden equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group green-box\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><strong>Important!<\/strong><br>The exact roof angles, construction heights, and available options vary depending on the model. You can find detailed information in the product sheet or by contacting a BHB adviser directly.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Location and building regulations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though a carport is a lighter structure than a garage, it is still classed as a building \u2013 which means its installation may require a permit or notification. Requirements may vary depending on location (city, village, forest plot, area subject to a local development plan, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What to check before installation:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>verify the local development plan (MPZP),<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>measure precisely the distance from the plot boundary and neighbouring buildings,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>consult the local council or an architect \u2013 this will save stress and potential fines,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>analyse soil bearing capacity and snow standards (especially relevant in mountainous or heavy snowfall areas).<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Important!<\/strong><br>Even if a carport does not require a permit, some modifications (such as full enclosure or increased height) may need to be reported. It is worth checking this before purchase and installation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Design matching the style of your home<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A carport is not just functional \u2013 it is also an architectural element that should harmonise with the fa\u00e7ade, shape, and colour scheme of the building. At BHB, we offer full personalisation of the carport\u2019s aesthetics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The most popular finishing styles:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>for wooden carports: natural colours (larch, pine, oak), Scandinavian or rustic style stains and preservatives,<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>for metal carports from MAFAL: anthracite graphite, black, white, and wood-effect coatings (golden oak, walnut, winchester).<br><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>You can adjust the roof shape, colour of the structure, style of the side walls, windows, and even accessories such as lighting or storage units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Designer opinion from BHB:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn modern buildings, the carport is often the first element visible from the street. That\u2019s why it\u2019s worth making sure its design is consistent with the entire house \u2013 the details build the visual quality of the property.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The most common mistakes when choosing a carport<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Even the best-planned project can turn problematic if you ignore a few key technical and practical aspects. Here is a list of the most common mistakes investors make \u2013 best to avoid them at the planning stage:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1. Not checking local building regulations<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> Even though a carport is a lighter structure than a garage, it often requires notification or a building permit. Neglecting the paperwork can result in administrative penalties or even a demolition order. It is worth consulting the local council or an architect before purchase.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Carport too small for the vehicle<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> This is one of the most common mistakes \u2013 especially with SUVs, vans, and minibuses. A standard-width carport may not provide comfortable entry, door opening, or space for storing extra items. It is always worth planning the carport with a slight space surplus \u2013 especially in width and height.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. Inappropriate roof for the climate<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> In areas with heavy snow or rain, a flat roof without adequate slope can cause water or snow accumulation, overloading the structure and shortening its lifespan. It is worth adapting the roof shape (e.g. gable or mono-pitched) to regional conditions and consulting the contractor about snow standards.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Poor installation and foundation<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> Even the best carport will not fulfil its function if built on unprepared ground. It is necessary to ensure proper anchoring of the posts \u2013 for example in concrete footings or with chemical anchors \u2013 so the shelter is resistant to wind gusts, sagging, and ground moisture.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>5. Forgetting future expansion needs<\/strong><strong><br><\/strong> Today\u2019s carport may be intended for one car \u2013 but what if you buy a second vehicle, motorbike, or e-bike in two years? Many investors regret not opting for a wider version or a modular model with expansion possibilities. BHB and MAFAL offer carports that can be modified and upgraded \u2013 it is worth considering this from the start.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Summary<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right carport is more than just a decision about the material or roof shape. It is an investment in everyday convenience, the aesthetics of your property, and long-term protection of your vehicle. Wooden or metal, modern or classic \u2013 the most important thing is that it suits your needs, space, and lifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think about how much space you need today \u2013 and whether it is worth planning for more in the future. Take local regulations, climate conditions, and installation possibilities into account. And remember \u2013 at BHB and MAFAL you have not only proven products at your disposal but also professional advice to help you avoid mistakes and choose the perfect solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Have any questions?
