The Advance Outdoor 10×20 Carport is constructed using heavy-duty steel to ensure durability and stability
Material and Specifications
Galvanized Steel: The carport frame is made from galvanized steel, which is known for its corrosion resistance and longevity. Galvanization involves coating the steel with a layer of zinc, which protects it from rust and weathering.
Pole Diameter: The steel poles used in the frame are 1.5 inches in diameter. This size provides a good balance between strength and ease of handling during assembly.
Thickness and Strength: The steel poles are designed to be heavy-duty, with a thickness that allows them to support the weight of the canopy and withstand environmental stresses like wind and snow. The exact thickness can vary, but they are generally robust enough for long-term outdoor use
