CliKIT on TVAs popular as ever, wood carports protect parked vehicles or stored outdoor belongings from all weather conditions. As an added bonus, a wood carport is an obvious charming asset for a home. Its wooden structure, the shade it provides, and the versatility linked to this shelter are all arguments that drive homeowners to look up the price of wood carports. Find our buying guide to learn everything about wood carports.
The wood carport price guide
In stores, online, or with a DIY concept, you have surely already looked into the price of wood carports and, above all, concluded that prices can sometimes vary by a factor of two. As with a pergola, the price of a wood carport depends on many factors, potential hidden costs, and expenses to consider during installation or maintenance of the structure. Wood lives, deteriorates, and requires more upkeep than an aluminum structure.
The charm it offers is however almost unrivaled, which frequently explains the attraction of homeowners to this style of car shelter. As a specialist in the field, CliKIT guides you step by step through everything you need to know before searching for your future carport.

What are the factors that influence the price of a wood carport?
Both in terms of total surface area and materials used, the price of a wood carport involves many factors. Also taking into account whether assembly is included or not, the accessories you wish to add to the shelter, or the administrative costs, stay informed and discover everything that influences the final price of a wood carport.
Single or double carport: which should you choose based on your needs?
The answer to the number of cars you own is fairly obvious. Rather than asking yourself whether you want to shelter one or more vehicles, why not turn the question around and think about alternative needs?
A wood carport remains versatile and can very easily accommodate outdoor items you wish to store during the summer season, or even a large table to welcome friends and family in the shade and out of the elements.
With these needs in mind, you may well find yourself looking at a double carport — even if you only need to park a single car.
The type of carport: lean-to or freestanding?
With more complex load-bearing constraints than a steel or aluminum structure, the wood carport is very rarely available in a lean-to form. Most of the time, as with CliKIT, the wood carport is offered in a freestanding form, with a minimum of four posts to support a structure that could tend to shift without this optimal support.
The number of posts and supports requires more raw materials, and this detail can very slightly be felt in the final price.
What is the price of carport options and accessories?
Due to their traditional and sometimes rustic structure, wood carports do not benefit from full compatibility with common accessories. Car shelters can nevertheless benefit from aesthetic or practical additions such as awnings, glass curtains, side panels or various options to close a carport. The price for a side panel starts at around 600 euros and depends on the required custom size.
Hidden costs: taxes and administrative procedures to be aware of
Installing a carport requires preparation, but in most cases, only a prior declaration of works to be submitted to the local planning authority is required. This is free of charge and applies to carports with a surface area of between 5 and 20m².
In terms of taxes, the car shelter is considered a permanent improvement structure. It is therefore included in the calculation of property tax and increases the assessed value of the property.
How much does a carport cost depending on the material?
The cost of raw materials is not the same, nor is the desired effect. Depending on the materials, the price of a carport varies.
What is the price of a wood carport?
As always at CliKIT, we start from the principle that every project should reflect you but, above all, integrate perfectly into your home. Wood carports are therefore configurable and their dimensions affect the final price of the structure. These criteria can ultimately influence the cost of a wood carport: width, depth, roof type, height, and color.
It is however possible to get an idea of the price of a wood carport from the CliKIT catalog. Configured for one car with a width that can nonetheless approach 4 meters, the FRIESLAND carport starts at around 2,200 euros. Grand and elegant, the EMSLAND XL wood carport is available from over 5,200 euros.
What is the price of an aluminum carport?
Modern and durable, aluminum carports range between 2,000 and 4,000 euros. Find our complete guide on the price of an aluminum carport.
What is the price of a solar carport?
Aesthetics but above all modernity with self-consumption to charge your vehicle? The solar carport from CliKIT starts at around 3,400 euros. Find our guide on the price of a solar carport to learn everything about this modern installation.

Which CliKIT wood carport should you choose based on your budget?
The strength of CliKIT's custom-made concept also lies in the versatility of its carport catalog. Beyond the materials selected for the car shelter, the CliKIT wood carport is available in a range of different lines. Always with the assurance of finding the structure made for you and your budget.
Small budget: paying less without compromising on quality?
If you look at the various projects completed by CliKIT, you will notice that the quality of the wood used in these car shelters does not change, regardless of the range, size, or price of the carport. This is an important point that reflects consistent quality and allows savings to be made in other areas, with the assurance of benefiting from a robust and elegant structure.
In order to save money on the purchase of a wood carport, it can be helpful to ask practical questions and stick to a minimum size for your space. Do your two cars both need to be sheltered? Do you really need that much space beyond the car?
By reducing the surface area or choosing to install an aluminum roof rather than a wooden one, several hundred euros can be saved on the order.
Average budget: which carport offers the best quality/price compromise?
With an average budget, the value for money of a wood carport can become optimal. With an XL structure such as the FRIESLAND range or with an aesthetic asphalt shingle roof, homeowners can truly access shelters that are much more than simple carports. Several cars can fit under the carport, as can a table or storage solutions designed for summer furniture. The carport has more than one trick up its sleeve, always with an overall controlled cost.
High-end carports: what can you expect for a high budget?
With a high budget for your wood carport project, luxury choices are available to you. Unsurprisingly, the various carports on offer can comfortably accommodate two vehicles or even a two-wheeler in addition, but above all, benefit from premium quality with glued laminated timber. This is the case with the EMSLAND XL range and its various stain options which, depending on your choice, will add the charm needed to blend perfectly into your home.

How do you install a CliKIT wood carport yourself?
CliKIT carports are designed, machined, and manufactured to be assembled to measure and without the help of professionals. This is how savings are achieved compared to other shelters on the market — not at the expense of product quality. The owner will therefore have to carry out the installation themselves, but don't worry, everything is designed to make assembly simple and accessible!
With highly precise and clear installation instructions, video tutorials for each product in the catalog, and your dedicated technical advisor ready to help you by phone for any issue encountered, installing a CliKIT wood carport generally goes smoothly.
What is the maintenance cost of a CliKIT wood carport?
Delivered with autoclave-treated wood and varnished or unvarnished finishes (depending on the customer's choice), CliKIT wood carports are designed to last over time. For this, they do however require meticulous maintenance — and let's be honest, much more demanding than with an aluminum structure such as a bioclimatic pergola.
Once again, the cost of maintenance depends on the size and the wood used for each carport. Nevertheless, it is sometimes necessary to budget several hundred euros per year for proper upkeep. It is recommended to re-waterproof your carport, or even repaint it, every 4 to 5 years.
Cleaning must be carried out at least twice a year. The cost is minimal and mainly requires time, using a brush and no detergent products. Choosing suitable, quality products may increase the maintenance budget, but it will ensure the carport remains in good general condition.
How do you finance the purchase of your CliKIT wood carport?
Depending on current policies, French tax authorities may occasionally offer financial assistance (such as zero-interest loans) for pergola or carport installations. Banks may, on their own initiative, follow a similar approach, but for payment without credit, the solution offered by CliKIT is also advantageous.
Purchasing a wood carport can represent a significant investment that needs to be spread out. For this, there is no need to go through a bank, as CliKIT, in partnership with Alma, offers payment in several installments, interest-free. Financing a carport becomes easier and allows every budget to enhance their property as it deserves.
