3. ASSEMBLY
We recommend installing the carport by at least two persons.
It is important to check from the specifications that all the components are present prior to
starting to installation of the carport.
Arrange the components according to the order of installation.
A good foundation is the most important aspect in ensuring the durability and security for your carport.
Only a totally level, rectangular and load bearing foundation can guarantee hassle-free installation of
the carport and its stability. With a good foundation your carport will last many years longer. We
recommend a point foundation for the carport. Seek a specialist consultation or have the foundation
prepared by professionals.
NB! Materials necessary for the foundation (concrete mix, beam support brackets, bolts) are
not included in the carport kit and they have to be purchased separately.
First, locate the positions of posts according to Fig. 1, or Fig. 1a in case of laminated wood arch.
Prepare the foundations for posts. Place the beam support brackets to the location of posts. There
are two options for getting the necessary roof incline for the carport:
a) by placing the beam support brackets at different heights (see Fig. 2)
b) by cutting the back posts shorter respectively
Place the posts so that the cuts at the upper end of posts are facing outwards. Then fix the posts with
respective bolts in the beam support brackets.
Position the beams (Pos. 2). Check the overhang in front and at the back according to Fig. 1, or
according to Fig. 1a in case of laminated wood arch. Drill the beams through the opening at the end of
the beam. Check that the components would be level and rectangular. Fix the beams to the post with
a bolt, nut and washer (Pos. 13-15).
Position the rafters (Pos. 3). See the distances from Fig. 3. Fix the rafters with squares (Pos. 19).
Then install the support components (Pos. 4). See the location of components from Fig. 2 and Fig. 3.
Fix with squares (Pos. 20).
Position the angle braces (Pos. 5) and secure them to the posts at the lower end, using a bolt and a
washer (Pos. 16 and 17), and to the support component (Pos. 4) at the upper end, using screws (Pos.
21).
Install the rest of the angle braces (Pos. 6 and 7) by repeating the procedure with component No. 5.
Next, fit the diagonals (Pos. 8) to make the carport even more stable. Diagonals should be fastened
with screws (Pos. 22) to the underside of the rafters according to Fig. 3.
Then install the fascia boards (Pos. 9 and 10) and fix with screws (Pos. 22).
Check before installing the roof-boards that the carport would be absolutely level. Roof-boards (Pos.
11) should be fastened with nails (Pos. 23).
Then fix the roof interior angle slats (Pos. 12) with nails (Pos. 23).
And finally, suitable roof covering materials should be laid (not included!).
