A double carport gives you enough space to park two vehicles, open doors and move around comfortably. We stock two double widths — 5.8m and 6m — depending on your driveway and how much room you need on the sides.
One car is easy. Two cars is where space becomes the real issue — doors hitting each other, one sitting half outside, and the whole setup feeling like a compromise. The extra width makes everyday use practical, not frustrating.
These are sold as DIY relocatable shelter kits — not certified permanent carports. Council rules vary by area and setup, so always check with your local council before you buy. If you need a certified permanent carport, view our Carport Kits range.
Two width options available. 5.8m suits most double driveways. 6m gives maximum side clearance for larger setups.
The problem usually isn’t getting two vehicles under cover. It’s getting two vehicles under cover in a way that still works day to day.
One ends up half outside, doors hit each other, and the whole space feels tight. A double-width shelter fixes that. Both vehicles in, doors open, done.
A ute takes up more room than people expect, especially once mirrors, trays and door clearance come into it. Extra width makes the setup usable, not just covered.
A lot of buyers don’t need two cars under it — they need one car and one trailer, or one ute and extra covered space beside it. That’s where the wider footprint matters.
On bigger properties, people usually want practical covered parking without paying for a full shed build. A double shelter gives you usable space without calling a builder or pouring a slab.
Three lengths. Pick by how you plan to use the space.

View 5.8m × 9.2mMost people measure the cars and stop there. The problems show up later — when you can't open the door properly or someone has to squeeze past every time.
A double setup needs around 5.8m–6m clear width — not including walls or obstacles.
Getting both cars in is usually fine. Getting out every morning without hitting a door on something — that's where most setups fall short.
Use your longest car or ute as the reference — not the shortest one.
Parking takes 30 seconds. You deal with the rest every day.
The questions most people wish they'd asked before ordering.
5.8m suits most standard double driveways and fits two vehicles comfortably. 6m gives you more side clearance — useful if you have a wider vehicle, want extra room to move around, or plan to use the space for storage alongside parking. Both widths are available in three lengths.
Fitting two cars is the easy part. If you can't open the door without hitting the other car, you'll know about it by day three.
Yes. If you match the exact vehicle length, you leave no room for movement, storage or future upgrades. Adding 300–600mm buffer makes everyday use far more practical.
It depends on length, not just width. Utes and trailers often require 7.4m or 7.5m or more. If you plan to unhitch or access the rear, a 9m or 9.2m setup is usually the safer choice.
Measuring the cars only. Most problems show up the first morning — when someone can't get out without reversing first.
