These structures are ideal for storing garden furniture, tools, and other equipment. Your flat roof carport will be built with your custom design to suit your requirements, so you can choose how wide, deep, or what height/clearance you want the roof of the carport to be.
Skillion carports are the simplest form of carport
Skillion Flat Roof carport is a simple roof form, with only one slope so there is only one side, the low side, with a gutter. The reason behind this naming is that the roof cannot actually be ‘flat’ as it needs a small pitch to allow water to run off. It’s easy to collect water runoff for re-cycling with just one gutter at the low end of the Skillion roof.

You choose your angle of the pitch – 2 degrees or 5 degrees giving you flexibility in your design. If Custom Orb is your preferred profile, then this must have a minimum 5-degree pitch. A 5-degree pitch is also suggested if you want to retrofit solar panels on the roof. The roof will be made strong enough to take the extra weight of solar panels if you wish.

Add Value to your home with a Skillion carport.
A carport is perfect for the homeowner who needs a little extra space to park the car or just needs more under-cover storage space. You can add a little style and privacy by installing some cover on the carport sides as long as it is a Professional Choice. Other skillion carports available in Australia are just capable of holding their own weight and it could be dangerous to add any additional weight. Side panels will also increase the wind force acting on the structure so don’t add them unless you have a Professional Choice. In almost all cases, Professional Choice carports are usually around 40% more mass (heavier) than most rivals because they have to be to meet the stringent Australian Standards for a class 10A building.
