Every carport type, sized for East Rand vehicles
Nine carport ranges cover every East Rand stand, from a single-car steel frame to a plot-sized four-bay. The demand here skews larger than the Gauteng average because the region parks work vehicles, not just sedans — so height and span, not looks, decide most of these structures.
Single carports
One car or a double-cab bakkie, 3m × 6m, from R6,500 — the East Rand entry structure.
Single carports »Double carports
Two cars, or a bakkie beside a car, 6m × 6m, from R12,500 — the most-fitted size.
Double carports »Triple & 4-bay
Boats, caravans and trailers alongside the cars on plots and smallholdings.
Triple & 4-bay carports »Steel & IBR carports
Galvanised frames with hail-rated IBR sheeting — the open-veld standard.

Rust-proof and powder-coated — the Edenvale and Bedfordview finish.
Aluminium carports »Wooden carports
Timber structures matching lapa, thatch and plot-style face-brick homes.
Wooden carports »Cantilever carports
No front posts — clear the narrow side driveway and the trailer reversing line.

Carports in the west & south »Why East Rand carports run bigger
The East Rand builds larger than the rest of Gauteng for two reasons the market here makes plain. First, the region is a belt of plots and agricultural holdings — Bapsfontein, the Benoni holdings, Bredell and Petit — where a household parks a double-cab, a work trailer, a boat and often a caravan, so the structure has to span several bays at a 2.7–3.0 m beam height. Second, the industrial zones at Isando, Wadeville and Germiston drive real commercial demand for fleet, delivery-vehicle and staff-parking cover. The full plot-and-fleet reasoning is on the plots, bakkies and trailers page, and the multi-bay sizes on the triple and four-bay carports page.
What a carport costs on the East Rand
A single steel carport starts near R6,500 supplied and installed, a double runs R12,500–R24,000, and a triple R19,000–R38,000; shade net carports start lower at R4,500 and aluminium prices at roughly one and a half times steel. The full band-by-band breakdown by type and size is on the carport prices in Ekurhuleni page, and the vehicle-to-size maths is in the carport sizes guide.

- Do you need council approval? — the City of Ekurhuleni and agricultural-holding rules, plainly.
- Carport vs shadeport — which cover stops open-veld hail, and which only shades.
- Carport installation — how the measure, cast footings and fit work on a plot or a driveway.

Do KB Carports install across the whole East Rand?
Yes. KB Carports Ekurhuleni installs across the whole metro — Kempton Park, Edenvale, Tembisa, Boksburg, Benoni, Brakpan, Germiston, Alberton, Springs and Nigel — with one free on-site measure and quote, on homes, plots and business premises.
Can you build a carport big enough for a bakkie, boat and trailer?
Yes. A four-bay 12m × 6m carport, or a triple with a taller 2.7–3.0 m beam, covers a bakkie, a boat on a trailer and the family cars together — the standard job on East Rand plots at Bapsfontein, the Benoni holdings and Bredell.
Do you fit commercial and staff-parking carports?
Yes. KB Carports fits fleet, delivery-vehicle and staff-parking carports for East Rand businesses, common in the Isando, Wadeville and Germiston industrial zones, in the same galvanised steel and IBR used on the home structures.
