Clarke Heavy Duty Portable Instant Garage Carport - Small – Dark Green (4.5 x 3 x 2.4m)

Product Information

I bought and fitted more easily some pointed spiral skewers/storm anchors, often used to tether animals. It took an hour or so to erect and it feels premium, I laid a tarp as a base and ran it up the sides and attached to the lower side support poles with cable ties to keep water tight, that has worked really well. It does, however, keep you out of the wind and rain, and it has often been warmer in the ‘tent’ (as it is known here) than the brick garage this winter. All I’ve had to do is make a good seal to the rear door which accesses the house, it used to really blow through the gap in the frame/door. Contact machine mart and the makers, kick up a fuss and get them to advise and cure the problem or refund your money.

The garage frame is heavy-duty steel tubing that is powder coated to prevent chipping, peeling, chipping and corrosion. But, because the cover isn’t pegged to the ground, the bottom edges do flap around in the wind and the frame creaks ( a lot! The ground anchors supplied are not really suitable for stony ground, the plate type spiral doesn't work. Cross Rails – For Continuous Cover Tightening - Brackets allow easy access to pressure points for optimal cover tightening. Secondly, whilst the garage had withstood most of the strong winds over winter without problems, the gales we had in the New Year did cause some issues.

Cross Rails For Continuous Cover Tightening - Brackets allow easy access to pressure points for optimal cover tightening. During the day the air in the garage is warmer and can hold more moisture, at night the warmest moistest air rises and contacts the icy cold surface and bingo all the water transfers to that.

The frame hoops are assembled first (instructions are clear, and all components are stamped with numbers to aid identification and assembly).They could hop over the fence between our drives and be in its shade so couldn’t be seen on the cameras.

Had an issue with everyone and everything despite her house looking like an absolute tip and the garden being full of rats. I dump out about a litres worth per day as it holds about 3L in the tank and I empty it twice a week.

No affiliation with Clarke at all by the way just sharing what ended up being better than I expected! I put one up at the stables about 9 years ago and it's lasted well in the constant winds we seem to get there, the back panel started to get a few small holes a couple of years ago so I just replaced that panel as the rest is fine.Heavy Duty 1 1/2" Diameter Powder Coated Steel Main Frame Tubing - A highly durable powder coat is baked on to the tube frames to protect against peeling, rusting, chipping and corrosion. Clarke does recommend that the garage cover be removed if severe winds are forecast - not too hard a job, but hardly convenient, and what are you supposed to do with the all things you have inside the garage? Now no drips partly because the breathers only see low humidity cold air from near the floor and outside, and mainly because the new inner surface is is not cold. That's a installation issue though that has nothing to do with the intrinsic qualities of the product itself. Fully UV treated (with added fade blockers, anti-ageing, anti-fungal and anti-yellowing agents) for long-term protection against sun, rain and wind.

I also notice it forming on the metal cabinets and draws in my unheated garage down here in South Devon.in an attempt to stop it I have covered the floor in builders waterproof membrane, which made no difference, so I cut two louvred vents into each end Apex. It was therefore decreed that other facilities must be made available for the dirty jobs (sanding, painting, laminating etc. There are also motorcycle storage and shed versions that are smaller, but the small garage seemed to provide the best ground space to cost ratio.
