Local Carport experts
Columbus Carports Built to Handle Tornadoes and Hail
Columbus is the Cherokee County seat in the southeast corner of Kansas. Spring brings tornado warnings and hailstorms, and summer storms can bring high wind. Our carports are built from galvanized steel with Sherwin-Williams coated panels, so your trucks, trailers and farm equipment stay covered.
Every carport is built to your measurements. Choose the width, length and leg height, then add side panels, gable ends or color-matched trim. A vertical roof sheds rain and debris fastest and carries the strongest wind rating, so it is the style we recommend here. We can anchor to a concrete slab, or install on level ground with auger anchors if you don’t have a pad yet.
Rural customers near Columbus often choose wide carports or lean-tos to cover equipment and hay. Check with the City of Columbus about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews install throughout Columbus and nearby Galena, Baxter Springs, Oswego and Pittsburg.
