Arizona Double Carport by Canopia

Arizona Double Carport by Canopia FAQ — Everything You Need to Know

Will My Vehicle Actually Fit?

Two vehicles side by side:

At roughly 8.7 ft of clearance across a 19x16 footprint, this covers two full-size trucks or SUVs parked side by side with no center post in the way. As with the Single, measure vehicle height against the 8.7 ft clearance figure before ordering if you're covering anything taller than a standard SUV.

FAQ

What's the difference between Wing and Arch roofline?

Both are structurally the same frame and wind/snow rating — it's a roofline style choice. Wing has a straighter, more angular profile; Arch has a rounded, domed profile. Each is available with either Wave (corrugated) or Breeze (solid) polycarbonate panels.

What do the wind and snow ratings actually mean?

The Arizona Double is engineered to stay structurally sound in sustained winds up to 75 mph, matching the Single. It's also rated for a snow load of 15.4 lbs per square foot. Always anchor per the included instructions and clear heavy snow buildup promptly.

What can I anchor this to, and what surface prep do I need?

All Canopia carports bolt down through footings or a poured concrete pad — concrete is the manufacturer-recommended surface. A compacted paver base or an existing patio slab can work if it's level and thick enough to hold anchor bolts securely, but loose gravel, grass, or dirt alone is not a substitute; frost-heave in cold climates can also shift an under-prepped foundation over time. If you're not sure your existing surface will hold anchors properly, call or text us and we can help you think through pad size and prep before you order.

Do I need a permit to install this?

Most municipalities require a permit for a permanent carport structure, and requirements vary widely by town — setback from property lines, wind/snow load documentation, and sometimes a foundation inspection. Check with your local building department before you install; we're happy to provide the manufacturer's engineering/spec sheet if your permit office asks for one.

What's covered under the warranty, and how do I file a claim?

A 10-year limited warranty against manufacturing defects in the frame and panels. Keep your proof of purchase — if you ever need to file a claim, call or text us at 732-806-7959 and we'll walk you through the process directly rather than routing you through a manufacturer call center.
