Metal Carports & Buildings in Prineville, Oregon

Prineville and Crook County are ranch country. We put up steel carports, RV covers, garages, shops and equipment buildings for homes, ranches and acreage around Prineville and Powell Butte.

Carports & RV covers in Prineville

An open metal carport is a quick way to get trucks, trailers and equipment out of the weather. On a ranch, a wide carport can shelter a tractor or hay equipment as easily as a pickup. Plan the opening height around the tallest thing you will park under it.

An RV cover is a taller, longer carport for a motorhome, fifth wheel, boat or stock trailer. Gables on the ends and a short side panel under the eave are common, and it stays an open carport.

Metal garages & shops in Prineville

Close in the sides and ends and you have a metal garage, shop or equipment building. In Crook County that might mean a shop with a big roll-up door for equipment, a walk-in door, and windows for light. A side addition gives you open storage alongside the closed-in space.

Framing is 14 gauge steel as standard, and the A-frame vertical roof is the best of our three roof styles for shedding snow.

Prineville FAQ

Who handles permits in Prineville?
Inside Prineville city limits, start with City of Prineville planning. Building permits run through Crook County. Outside city limits, including Powell Butte and Juniper Canyon, call Crook County Community Development. See our permit guide.
Do farm buildings need a permit in Crook County?
Maybe not a building permit, but every structure still needs Crook County planning approval. The county's agricultural exemption request is only available in EFU (Exclusive Farm Use) zones, and buildings in the flood plain do not qualify. Ask the county before you order.
Does Prineville have rules for how a carport looks?
Yes. Prineville's land use code describes a carport as having no more than two walls and built to match the house in color and architecture. Check with City of Prineville planning on colors, then pick from our color chart.
Can a carport be tall enough for farm equipment?
Yes. Tell us the height and width of the tallest piece of equipment, and we will size the carport or building around it.
