Looking for a reliable way to add extra storage or workspace to your property without breaking the bank? Meet the Carport Garage Combo from Future Buildings – a brand-new DIY building that combines the open convenience of a carport with the security of a shed or garage. It’s practical, affordable, and perfect for homeowners or DIY enthusiasts who want to maximize their space efficiently.

What is the Carport Garage Combo?

At its core, the Carport Garage Combo (also known as the Secure Shed) merges two essential building types into one super-functional structure. You get the spaciousness of a carport, ideal for keeping your vehicles covered, plus a secure shed or garage for storing tools, equipment, or anything else that needs protection from the elements. Whether you need extra storage, a workshop, or just a safe place for your stuff, this hybrid building delivers.

Why Cold-Formed Steel?

Our Carport Garage Combos are made from cold-formed steel, which offers serious benefits over other construction materials. Cold-formed steel is known for its durability, light weight, and resistance to rust and corrosion, making it perfect for structures exposed to harsh weather.

Here’s why cold-formed steel makes this combo unbeatable:

Durability: Cold-formed steel is incredibly strong and can stand up to the elements, including wind, rain, and snow. It doesn’t warp, shrink, or split like wood, and it’s much more resilient against pests like termites.

Affordability: Steel structures tend to be more affordable over time because they require less maintenance and repair than wood or other materials. Plus, steel prices tend to be more stable, so you won’t have to worry about fluctuating lumber costs.

Lightweight and Easy to Work With: Cold-formed steel is lighter than other types of steel, which makes it easier to handle during assembly. Despite its lightweight nature, it’s incredibly strong, making it the perfect material for a long-lasting structure.

Eco-Friendly: Steel is recyclable, and the production process for cold-formed steel creates less waste compared to other building materials. If you care about your environmental footprint, cold-formed steel is a great option.

Easy DIY Assembly

One of the best parts about the Carport Garage Combo is how easy it is to put together. You don’t need any advanced carpentry skills or special tools—just some basic equipment, a few friends, and a little time. The structure uses nuts and bolts, so you won’t be dealing with complicated welding or advanced construction techniques.

Here’s a breakdown of the assembly process:

Prep the Site: Clear and level the ground where your new combo building will go. Make sure to follow any local building codes or permitting requirements.

Basic Tools: You’ll only need standard hand tools like wrenches, a drill, and a ladder. No need for heavy machinery!

Nuts & Bolts: All connections are made with simple nuts and bolts. Once the base is set up, the walls and roof come together smoothly. With a couple of friends to help, you can have your structure up and ready in just a few days.

Minimal Maintenance: Once your Carport Garage Combo is up, there’s very little maintenance to worry about. Cold-formed steel doesn’t require painting, sealing, or pest control like wood. Just hose it down when it gets dirty, and it’ll look good as new.

Perfect for Your Needs

The versatility of the Carport Garage Combo makes it ideal for a wide range of uses. Whether you’re a farmer, mechanic, or just someone with a lot of outdoor gear, this structure has you covered.

RV or Vehicle Storage:

Keep your car, truck, or RV safe from the elements with the carport side, while using the garage side to store tools or outdoor equipment.

Workshop Space:

Need a secure spot to tinker on your projects? The garage portion is perfect for setting up a workbench or storing power tools.

Extra Storage:

Got a growing collection of outdoor furniture, garden equipment, or seasonal decor? The shed/garage portion keeps everything secure and protected from weather, while the open carport gives you quick, easy access to your vehicle.

Farm or Equipment Storage:

For farmers, this combo is ideal for keeping equipment like tractors or mowers protected, while using the garage for smaller, more valuable tools and machinery.

Affordable and Practical

The Carport Garage Combo is a cost-effective way to add more storage and workspace to your property without spending a fortune. Because it’s a DIY build, you save big on labor costs, and with the durability of cold-formed steel, you won’t be shelling out extra for maintenance down the road.

Whether you need extra space for your tools, a covered spot for your car, or a combo that can do it all, the Carport Garage Combo is your new best friend. It’s the affordable, practical solution you’ve been looking for, and it’s built to last.
