Please post pics of your motorhome carport

I'm going to have a carport installed soon and I have a couple of questions/requests for those of you who have one.

I'd really like to see some pics of carports with enclosed sides. Right now I'm leaning heavily towards enclosing three of four sides.

Secondly, how tall are your sides? I have a 40' DP and haven't decided yet between 12' and 14' side legs.

Thanks much.

    That's awesome! I looked at those pics and was wondering where the MH was.

    12' on the left side and 14' on the right.


    Ivy posted the only pictures but IMHO he needs to post the door opening and closing see Pic's here

    This is one of the cleanest installations I've ever seen on a house, hope Ivy is alright with me expanding his pic's.

    BOL,

    Thanks! That's pretty much what I'm looking to do. How wide is yours?

    I had a 18' x 60' with 12' legs carport installed. If it wasn't for the width, we would had to go with the 14' legs.
    This is the correct answer.

    While not a motor home, we have a 40' fifth wheel that stands at 13'3". I had a 18' x 60' with 12' legs carport installed. If it wasn't for the width, we would had to go with the 14' legs.
