What are the other uses of a carport?

In the absence of your vehicle, your carport can have many other uses. More than just a shelter for your car, van or camper van, it acts as a garage, adding extra space to your home and, at the same time, added value.

Have you thought about it? When your car isn't there, your carport can double up as a pergola. In fact, these two constructions are similar and their uses can coincide. Their spaciousness means they can be used for infinite purposes.

Thanks to your carport, you can eat outside, in a shaded area, without fear of the sun or the heat. The carport's roof provides easy protection from the sun's rays in the summer. It will also protect you effectively from light showers that may occur during the meal: no need to bring the furniture in hastily. What's more, with the optional integrated LED lighting, you can enjoy long evenings under your carport. Finally, the optional Akena privacy screens provide extra protection from prying eyes.

As you can see, your carport is multifunctional.

Have you always dreamt of having your own swimming area? But you don't have the right ground? Your carport is the answer.

The large spaces in our carports, laid on your tarmac floor, make it easy to install inflatable pools, as well as spas or jacuzzis. Guaranteed to satisfy children and parents alike! You'll be able to enjoy a moment of happiness in complete privacy. Our optional privacy screen allows you to close off the desired areas of your carport, either completely or with a little light.

Have you thought about the carport roof? This will prevent any leaves or branches from falling onto the pool. Perfect for low-maintenance enjoyment.

A workspace

If you've always wanted to work outside in the fresh air, a carport is for you. With its large surface area, you can easily set up your workbench.

And that's without having to undertake major garage work that's time-consuming, costly and complex. You'll be able to carry out your work while being protected from the vagaries of the weather and the heat, whether by the carport roof or the sunbreakers.

Storage space

The use of your carport changes with the seasons. In winter, you can store all your summer equipment: garden furniture, bicycles, barbecues... all in a protected, enclosed space. Thanks to the carport, no damage to your equipment. And don't forget to winterise your plants, which will be protected from the cold and frost under the carport.
