An Outrigger carport awning is a lightweight contempory alternative to the traditional heavy carport structure. An Outrigger carport awning is designed to be unobtrusive and will blend in with any style of house or building. All carport awnings are custom designed and manufactured in Outrigger's factory in Sydney, Australia.

An Outrigger carport awning can be made to almost any shape, size, and colour. The awning may take the form of a sail with a pole at each corner and a taut fabric membrane, or it may be a fully framed structure. Some carport awnings are retractable. The awning may house battens to increase the rigidity of the structure. Battens can be straight, pitched, or curved.

An Outrigger carport awning is a durable alternative to a timber structure. Awnings are manufactured from a premium grade Teflon coated pvc and are welded to ensure the seams are waterproof. The expected life of an Outrigger carport awning is 15 to 18 years.
