Portable Garage FAQ’s

Do you need a building permit for a portable garage?

Whether a building permit is required to install a portable garage may vary depending on local codes, zoning laws, and the specific characteristics of the structure. In many jurisdictions, a portable garage that is considered a temporary or movable structure may not require a building permit. However, it is always recommended that you consult your local building department or zoning office to determine the specific requirements in your area.

What materials are used for portable garages? 

Our portable garages are constructed with high-grade steel and ultra-durable fabric. Fabric materials vary based on model but range from lightweight to heavy-duty. They are all constructed to prevent UV damage and moisture issues. Depending on the type of fabric you choose, some even withstand sleet, snow, and heavy winds.

How can I customize my portable garage?

The best part about purchasing a portable garage is you can choose them based on exactly what you need. From the material, shape, and height, choose what works best for your personal property. You can even choose a color to blend in seamlessly with your outdoor décor.

What are wind and snow load ratings?

Wind and snow load ratings refer to the structure’s ability to withstand these elements. A wind rating provides the user the ability to gauge how strong of winds the garage can withstand from winds like a hurricane or tornado. A snow load rating refers to the weight that the portable garage can hold in snow prior to a possible roof collapse. Wind ratings are specified in miles per hour, while snow load ratings are pounds per square foot, or PSF.

How do I anchor a portable garage?

Anchoring a portable garage is not only important for your safety, but it can also help to elongate the life of the building. You should always use the right anchors based on the type of surface where you are installing the garage tent. You should generally use one anchor per leg. Here is a handy guide to choose which anchor is right for your garage tent.
