SKAN HOLZ Friesland carport
The Friesland 402 x 555 cm carport combines a robust structure with well thought-out functionality and is ideal for safely storing motorhomes, caravans or larger vehicles. The combination of impregnated softwood and a durable roof covering made of galvanised steel trapezoidal sheeting ensures lasting weather resistance and an attractive appearance.
- Exterior dimensions 402 x 555 cm - parking space, also suitable for campers and caravans.
- Entry height 350 cm - comfortable passage even for tall vehicles.
- Structure of impregnated softwood - protection against fungal and insect infestation through impregnation.
- Colour-treated: Factory glazed in walnut - two work steps, flooded and brushed on all sides - making the wood ready for immediate assembly and leaving the natural wood structure visible. Repair quantity of glaze is included.
- Posts 11.5 x 11.5 cm including H-post anchor - stable and durable anchoring in the foundation.
- Steel trapezoidal sheet, galvanised and anthracite polyester-coated - resistant to weathering, with an elegant surface appearance.
- Roof end with profiled timber trim and aluminium end edge - clean look and additional protection for the roof edge.
Treatment and care instructions:
- The wood is protected by the water-based impregnation, but has an increased residual moisture content. Minor drying cracks or resin leakage are natural characteristics and do not reduce the structural strength.
- The kit is pre-treated at the factory so that you can start assembly immediately after delivery. An enclosed repair quantity of glaze enables the professional post-treatment of drill holes and interfaces. If you would like an additional finish, we recommend light sanding and a coat of high-quality glaze after assembly.
- When selecting the stain, make sure it has good UV protection and follow the manufacturer's processing guidelines. Recommended maintenance intervals are approx. 4-5 years, but at the latest before visible damage occurs.
The trapezoidal sheet steel roof covering is galvanised and polyester-coated on both sides (top side anthracite, underside light grey). This design offers:
- High dimensional stability due to low thermal expansion
- Robust weather resistance against rain, snow and hail
- Easy-care surface and modern appearance
The supplied 60 cm H-anchors made of galvanised flat steel are designed to be set in concrete in point foundations provided by the customer and ensure secure anchoring. On request, we can supply the anchors together with a suitable foundation plan - please specify when ordering.
Scope of delivery and installation instructions:
- Complete kit with posts, H-anchors, roof plates and covers.
- Assembly in accordance with the enclosed assembly instructions; point foundations must be provided by the customer.
With the Friesland carport, you get a durable, sturdily anchored solution for accommodating large leisure vehicles, combined with an attractive appearance and low-maintenance materials
Construction
The construction is made of impregnated softwood. Spruce and pine wood, which is not technically-dried, acquires its greenish color from metal salts released by the impregnating agent. They protect wood against fungus and insect infestations, but do not contain UV protection. Impregnation gives wood higher residual moisture. Subsequent drying can lead to release of resin, twisting and formation of drying cracks, which pose no static disadvantage and rather reflect the natural materials used.
Colour treatment
The colour-treated components are coated with a layer of paint at the factory. The coating allows the natural wood grain to remain visible whilst ensuring a uniform surface finish. The components are coated on all sides twice at the factory, after which any excess material is brushed off.
Thanks to this factory pre-treatment, the components can be assembled immediately upon delivery. A primer coat prior to assembly is not required. Each kit also includes a quantity of wood stain or paint for touching up cut edges, screw holes or any damage caused during assembly. These areas should be treated in accordance with the installation instructions.
For a personalised finish, the visible wooden surfaces can be lightly sanded after assembly and treated with a suitable wood stain or paint. Components that have been colour-treated on all sides may show storage marks due to technical reasons.
Steel roofing
The roof is fitted with galvanised trapezoidal steel sheeting. The double-sided polyester coating – anthracite on the top and light grey on the underside – combines a modern appearance with additional protection against the elements.
Thanks to the material’s typically low thermal expansion, dimensional changes due to temperature fluctuations are minimal. The robust design of the trapezoidal sheet offers high load-bearing capacity and is designed for long-term outdoor use as well as to withstand the stresses of snow and hail.
Bracing
The building kit includes 60 cm-long H-post anchors of galvanized flat steel for embedding in concrete in the site-built deep foundation (for size and lay-out see assembly instructions). They firmly connect the posts to the subsurface to ensure high stability.
