Weatherford Carports is the Weatherford starting point for two-car covers. Request a free quote and a local carport installer will call you back to confirm width, length and roof style. A double carport is often the first upgrade on a home without a garage, or on one where the garage has turned into a workshop or storage.
The usual mistake is buying the narrowest unit that technically fits two vehicles. When both front doors swing open at once, or someone is lifting a child seat out of the back, that extra width matters every day.
Plan width around people, not just bumpers
Park both vehicles in their usual positions, open all doors and measure from the outside edge of one open door to the other. Add a walking lane down the middle and a little on each side for the legs. A pickup and an SUV together need more room than two compact cars, so measure your own pair rather than relying on a chart.
Length works the same way. If you want to walk around the front bumper with groceries, add a few feet past the longest vehicle.
Center posts, braces and clear spans
Standard two-car units use legs only at the outside edges, leaving the middle open. As width grows, frames need stronger trusses and sometimes heavier tubing. Ask whether the quote uses 14-gauge or 12-gauge framing and how the trusses are braced. Corner braces reduce the clear width at the top of each leg, which matters if you open a tall door near the edge.
If you park a trailer or mower in the back, consider extra length instead of extra width.
Looks and neighborhood rules
A two-car carport is large enough to change how the front of a house looks. Subdivisions around Weatherford often have HOA rules on placement, color and roof style, so get approval in writing first. A boxed-eave or vertical roof in a color that matches the trim tends to pass review more easily than a plain rounded roof. For three or more vehicles, see triple-wide carports, or add walls with enclosed carports.
Frequently asked questions
Can I add side walls to a double carport later?
Often yes, but walls catch more wind. Ask whether the frame and anchors are rated for walls before you order.
Will a two-car carport fit on my existing driveway?
Measure the slab and check for cracks or slope. The installer can tell you whether it can hold anchors.
