Custom Steel & Aluminum Carports by Cypress Railings and Gates
Protect your vehicles in style with custom metal carports built to last. At Cypress Railings and Gates, we design, fabricate, and install premium steel and aluminum carports across Vancouver, West Vancouver, North Vancouver, Langley, and Coquitlam. Our carports combine modern design, structural strength, and local BC code compliance offering the ideal solution for residential, strata, and commercial properties.
A metal carport is a long-term investment that offers year-round protection for your vehicles, RVs, or boats. Unlike wood or vinyl shelters, steel and aluminum carports resist rot, termites, and warping—making them perfect for Vancouver’s rainy climate.
Durability: Built from heavy-gauge steel or corrosion-resistant aluminum.
Weather Protection: Shields vehicles from rain, UV rays, snow, and falling debris.
Low Maintenance: No repainting or sealing needed—powder-coated finishes last for years.
Modern Design: Clean lines, sleek frames, and customizable finishes to match any architecture.
Versatility: Great for car storage, covered patios, workshops, or drive-through shelters.
Whether you need a freestanding steel carport for your driveway or an attached aluminum carport to extend your garage, Cypress Railings and Gates provides a turnkey solution from design to installation.
Every property is different, and so are your needs. Our in-house design team creates custom CAD drawings and 3D renderings to ensure your new carport perfectly fits your space and style. We account for:
Site layout and foundation type
Snow and wind load requirements (per BC building code)
Desired roofing and drainage options
Aesthetic details and finishes
We work closely with homeowners, contractors, and strata managers to engineer safe and code-compliant structures.
Cypress Railings and Gates operates a full-service metal fabrication shop in Vancouver, where we manufacture each carport to precise specifications.
We specialize in:
Structural steel carports — strong, industrial-grade frames for large vehicles or multi-bay designs.
Aluminum carports — lightweight, rust-proof, and ideal for residential or coastal installations.
Galvanized steel carports — hot-dipped for superior corrosion resistance.
Powder-coated finishes — a range of colors and textures to match your home exterior or commercial façade.
Our skilled fabricators use CNC cutting, MIG/TIG welding, and laser precision tools to ensure top-tier craftsmanship and longevity.
Once fabricated, our certified installation team handles the full setup—site preparation, mounting, anchoring, and finishing.
We install both freestanding and attached metal carports, with attention to:
Proper footing and anchoring
Roof slope and drainage
Seam alignment and weld integrity
Seamless integration with your driveway or existing structure
Our installations are fast, efficient, and minimally disruptive, typically completed within a few days depending on project scope.
A metal carport’s performance depends as much on the roof as the frame. We offer several roofing styles and materials:
Flat or sloped standing seam metal roofs
Polycarbonate panels for partial transparency
Insulated aluminum panels for better thermal control
Gabled steel roofs for classic pitched-roof aesthetics
Each roof system is designed to handle Vancouver’s heavy rainfall and snow loads, while enhancing visual appeal.
Cypress Railings and Gates provides a wide selection of finishes and upgrades to elevate your carport from functional to luxurious:
Matte black, charcoal grey, or brushed steel finishes
Decorative trim and side panels
Integrated LED lighting or motion sensors
Privacy screens or glass infills
Powder-coated gates and matching railings for cohesive design
Our goal is to create a modern, architectural carport that complements your home’s design and adds property value.

Steel carports offer higher load-bearing capacity and are ideal for larger spans.
Aluminum carports are lightweight, rust-proof, and easier to install.
