| Q:
What methods are used to
anchor the carports and garages? |
| A: There
are three anchoring types. If the structure were to be
mounted to a concrete pad or footing, then traditional concrete
wedge anchors would be used.
We offer a 30 inch rebar anchor that is intended for use when a
structure is mounted directly to dirt or gravel surface. On
our certified buildings, a helical mobile home anchor is used.
On non-certified structures, these can be purchased as an
optional item. |
| |
| Q:
How does it take from the
time I place my order until the time the building is installed? |
| A: The
majority of our installations are completed in two weeks or
less! |
| |
| Q:
What are the tallest legs
that can be ordered? |
| A: The
tallest legs that can be ordered are 12 feet. Anything taller
than 12 feet can be ordered by special approval only. Our
installation professionals are equipped with the tools to to
handle installations of up to 12 feet. |
| |
| Q:
What preparation should be
completed before my building is installed? |
| A:
Insure that the site designated for product installation is a
flat and square surface. In order to provide you with
affordable products, with quick installation, site preparation,
as well as building permits, are the responsibility of the
customer. The customer is responsible for any local permits,
covenant searches, rights of way, set-back restrictions, etc. |
| |
| Q:
Why aren't the prices
listed online? |
| A: Our
authorized dealers have up to date price listings and prices do
vary from state to state. Several factors govern why our prices
vary from state to state. Shipping and freight from our
distribution centers, construction requirements, which factor in
snow load requirements in northern states, wind and anchoring
system requirements in hurricane and tornado prone areas, are
all factors that result in price variances from state to state. |
| |
| Q:
Will ordering direct from
Eagle Carports result in a lower price? |
| A: No!
We will take your order but the price will not be any lower. We
would prefer that you visit a partner/dealer that is local to
your area. Our dealers have been the key to our sales success
and we are very loyal to those dealers. Our price will not be
less than the price they provide to you. |
| |
| Q:
Why can't I order online? |
| A: First
and foremost, we would prefer that you contact one of our
professional dealers. They are equipped with the prices, photos,
options, etc. to assist you in placing your order. |
| |
| Q:
Why should I consider a
vertical roof versus a horizontal roof? |
| A: As
displayed on our carport and garage sections of the website, the
ridges of the steel panels in a horizontal roof run parallel to
the sides and ridge of the carport or garage. Water, snow, etc.,
will drain to the front and back of the building, towards the
door openings. If the building is perfectly level, water will
ten to pond on a horizontally installed roof. On a vertical
roof, the ridges of the steel panels run from the top of the
carport or garage to the sides. This roof configuration
displaces water, snow, etc., much more efficiently and water will
not pond on the roof. Water will also drain away from the
door openings (unless the doors are installed on the sides of
the carports or garages). |
| |
| Q:
What are the on center
spacing of the frame legs/bows? |
| A: As
a general rule, the spacing of the frame legs/bows are 4 feet or
5 feet on center. |
| |
| Q:
What is the
height in the center of the building if I order a certain height
leg? |
A: The
chart below will allow you to calculate this measurement. For
example, if the carport/garage is a Standard Style Double unit,
20 feet wide with 7 feet legs, add 3' 0" to the 7 feet leg
height for a total height of 10'.
