Carports & RV covers in Madras

In the Madras area, sun and wind are as much of a reason for a carport as snow. An open metal carport keeps vehicles, trailers and farm equipment shaded and out of the weather. Pick the width for what you park, and the height for the tallest thing going under it.

An RV cover is a taller, longer carport built for a motorhome, boat or trailer. Gables on the ends and a short side panel under the eave are common add-ons. It stays an open carport.

Metal garages & shops in Madras

With the sides and ends closed in, you have a metal garage or shop: a place to work, park or store equipment and feed. Choose your roll-up doors, a walk-in door and windows. Wider buildings can add an open side bay for equipment that does not need to be locked up.

All framing is 14 gauge steel as standard, and the A-frame vertical roof sheds snow and rain best.

Snow load & certified options

Even in drier Jefferson County, snow load depends on your exact address and elevation, so there is no single number for the county. Ask the building department for your number and we will match a certified building rated for 40, 50, 60 or 80 psf snow load.

Do farm buildings need a permit in Jefferson County?

Oregon has an agricultural building exemption with specific rules. Ask Jefferson County whether your building qualifies before you order. Zoning rules still apply.
