Palram - Canopia | Arcadia Alpine RV Carport 12x42x11.5 ft - HG9129

The Arcadia Alpine 12' x 42' Carport is a stylish and durable shelter that will protect your vehicle, RV, trailer, or oversized vehicle from snow, rain, leaves and harmful UV rays. The Alpine offers 10 ft. of clearance, which is 3.5 ft. more than the standard Arcadia, making it ideal for taller vehicles and trailers.

Polycarbonate roof panels have been designed to simply slide into place eliminating the need to get on the roof to secure them. The sturdy, powder coated gray aluminum and galvanized steel frame is rust resistant, easy to clean with your garden hose, and has a minimum 16lbs/sq. ft. snow load capacity. Additional features include; integrated gutters with downspouts to direct rain away from the sides, wide entry with high clearance and a great re-assembly option in case you need to change locations.
