A portable garage or a carport canopy needs to last in both summer and winter months. While these canopy structures have UV resistant and waterproof canopies and strong powder-coated or galvanized steel structures, the outdoor canopies themselves need to withstand all types of weather, from heavy rains to heavy snowfalls. Although all types of outdoor carport canopies can handle these particular conditions, rounded canopy structures are often better suited to snow, as the snow will less likely be able to build up on the surface and will, instead, roll off.

But when snow does start to build up on the surface of a canopy, the structure needs to be able to handle the amount of snow and wind. While a rounded roof for a canopy allows snow to slide off, these structures can, on average, support twelve pounds of snow per square foot and can withstand winds up to 50 miles per hour. As your investments needs to stay protected against the weather regardless of the time of year, portable garage or carport canopies shouldn't buckle and break due to snow. If you live in a cold climate that experiences large amounts of snow yearly, we carry canopies that withstand snow in all sizes, from smaller sizes to fit one car to larger commercial size canopies.
