I would recommend getting wire cables with bucklers so you can run them between the frames it will help getting rid of the wobbles I used 3/16 cable on my and it makes it very sturdy you will be making x's with the cables between your frames.

@BillandKelleyAdventures 11 месяцев назад

Thank you. Adding the tin took almost all of it out but we may look into adding that too.

@joycelandreth5237 Год назад

Oh my gosh, what a GREAT and thorough video. I'm only researching a double carport, instead of a garage that I would love to have, but I couldn't stop watching until I found out how it turned. Kudos, Kelley.

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

Thank you 😊

Woke up. Said I wanted one. Called the same day and ordered it. 18x36x12 and they came 8 days later and put it up. Whole process took 9 days start to finish. I got my site ready during the week I waited.

@BillandKelleyAdventures 4 месяца назад

That’s great. We just built a garage it went quick. I guess it was because of Covid it took so long.

@sheilacunningham7818 10 месяцев назад

My son had to put 4x4 posts and concreted them in the ground . Now it won’t sway . And it even went through a hurricane up in north Florida this year .

@BillandKelleyAdventures 10 месяцев назад

That is great. When we added that back tin it really helped it doesn't sway much now.

@ourv9603 5 месяцев назад

Mine is 18W X 41L X 13H. I enclosed the sides & used tarps to cover the ends so my coach sits in the dark to protect it from oxidation & tire cracking. For what we have to pay for these Rvs if you own one you should spend the extra $$ for a shelter it will extend the looks & life of your Rv letting you get more use out of it. Even if you have to find a place to store in indoors. It will be worth it. IF you go to the same general area mostly, store it there & save the fuel it takes to drive from your home. !

@BillandKelleyAdventures 5 месяцев назад

Yes totally agree. We so wish we had done so much sooner.

@sveabryan9126 2 года назад

We’re about to have an rv cover installed. I have had a hard time finding out if the size would be correct for our rig. This description was perfect!

@BillandKelleyAdventures 2 года назад

I am so glad that it helped you will absolutely love having a cover over your RV. It makes such a big difference in protecting your RV.

@dannythervguy 2 года назад

That is so awesome, I would like to have one of those aventualy ,I use a rv cover. One thing I would do is put some concrete footings and bolt them down, I wouldn't trust those 2 foot rebar in the ground with high winds in your are. Glad you guys finally got it completed.

@BillandKelleyAdventures 2 года назад

Glad you enjoyed. I’ve been really impressed how well it stayed down. We don’t normally have a lot of High winds but we did that one day and they were clocked around 50 miles an hour and we didn’t have a problem hopefully it stays that way lol. The added tim really helped sturdy it up.

@TheRealBiggerAl Год назад

Agree with concrete anchors at all 4 corners and I’d add mobile home anchors between at each pole. Think of it as a giant sail. Your wind rating would increase to over 100 mph. The back side closing in helps a lot to mitigate sway. It took me 8 months to get mine installed back in 2020-2021!

@Dukemeistro Год назад

I'm so glad I came across this video. I am just about to purchase one, and I don't like that sway.

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

Glad I could help. We love it.

@robhoffman2070 10 месяцев назад

After researching different ideas regarding an RV carport, I've decided to build a timber frame, pole barn. These metal tube, fabricated structures seem a bit too flimsy.

@BillandKelleyAdventures 10 месяцев назад

I agree they aren't the best just wood is so expensive now days. We just built a pole barn garage. The guy said the prices have doubled over the last few years.

@allenc9520 Год назад

Great video. Appreciate all of the details you included. We had a carport built. Very similar sizes. We include some extra panels for the sides (1 and 2) but left both ends open. Our first spring we got a ton of pollen and tree debris on our RV roof. Decided we need to close the back gable end with 2 panels hopefully to stop the wind tunnel effect we have. We ordered and waited 3 months. Instead of installing they only offered a drop only service. Nothing cut to fit. Do you have pictures or video of the framing work they did to add panels to your gable end? Thank you.

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

I can send a picture. I don’t think they did anything just attached it.i will look when we get home in a few days.

@Reddog1255 Год назад

X brace everything from the inside including back 😊👍

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

Thanks so much for the tip 😊

@cindydallas4959 Год назад

8:03 pm. 3/5/23-we are gonna put one of these down our grass as the person that sold us the bundle stated we can put in the rock later do you suggest doing it that way or put it in first

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

I think you can Just would have to be real careful not bump may have to use a shovel and a rake around the legs.

@jimballard7023 2 года назад

What size is the cover? Width. Height. Leg height? Plus what did u do on the ground for gravel or base? Plus did they say to add the end bracing to make it less wobbly? Looks great! I would love to be able to have it as a drive thru. Can’t wait for mine to be done. Any suggestions is appreciated. Thank u.

@BillandKelleyAdventures 2 года назад

We used milling for our base which is ground up asphalt. The back brace did help the swaying but it was good without it. 18x40 with 14’ legs I wish we had done 18x44 the 40 just barely covers it.

Is not secured with a concrete pad, dah! Now if you don't and the padre you need ancore cables to secretos the structure dah!😢🤪😜🙃🤑

@BillandKelleyAdventures 7 месяцев назад

It is anchored with 24" stakes. It's been great since we added the back panela. it's made it through 40mph winds no problem.

@janebray9392 Год назад

How much? Just so I can get a ballpark figure

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

It was around $8000 after adding the extra tin

@chrisgramstorff996 11 месяцев назад

Who was the manufacturer ?

@BillandKelleyAdventures 11 месяцев назад

Company we used. qualityoutdoor.net/

@snatchworthywigs6454 Год назад

What's the dimensions

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

18x40 but I wish we had made it ableist to 2 to 4 feet longer. It covers it but the sun and if the rain blows it still get on the camper certain times of the day.

@socalboergoats1931 Год назад

So it coast 6,000?

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

Yes just metal and labor.

@Dukemeistro Год назад

Nails? That's not secure.

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

It’s gone through several 55 plus mph winds it’s been great.

@Dukemeistro Год назад

@@BillandKelleyAdventures another person has the same one, and the big nails keep popping up out the ground, along with anchors doing the same.

@BillandKelleyAdventures Год назад

@@Dukemeistro I guess we been lucky ours haven’t popped up at all

@Dukemeistro Год назад

@@BillandKelleyAdventures could be that he had a bad install team. I'm gonna find out what State that ones in; it could be soil issue. But I'd think the install would adjust accordingly. We're in MI. And this particular area of the State gets wicked winds moving from lower Lake MI, through to Lake Huron. I'm glad that you guys are having success with yours though. Thanks for sharing.👍

@Dukemeistro 10 месяцев назад

I'm watching your video again, and still in the process. We were going with one company, but ended up changing to a different company. Now I'm just finishing up the pad that I'm doing with crushed asphalt over crushed concrete. The rv carport will be installed in a couple of weeks. I'll do a video and show you. How's your rv carport holding up?
