SKAN HOLZ Friesland carport
The Friesland 402 x 708 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 708 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 thanks to greenish impregnation.
- Posts 11.5 x 11.5 cm including H-post anchors - 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.
The timber construction is made of solid spruce wood and is impregnated at the factory. The impregnation increases the resistance to wood-damaging organisms; however, UV protection is not part of the treatment. Due to the natural material properties, slight dimensional changes, resin leakage or drying cracks are possible, which have no influence on the statics and emphasise the authenticity of the natural product.
For a long-term attractive surface, we recommend post-treatment after installation:
- Continue to treat the surface after 2-3 months in the sun at the earliest so that excess impregnation has dried.
- Lightly sand and clean before painting.
- Apply two coats of a high-quality protective wood stain and ensure good UV protection.
- Maintenance intervals approx. 4-5 years or renew at the first visible signs of damage.
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 assembly instructions:
- Complete kit with posts, H-anchors, roof plates and covers.
- Assembly according to the enclosed assembly instructions; point foundations must be provided by the customer.
- Note: Wood is impregnated at the factory, additional surface treatment recommended.
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.
Color treatment
Water-based impregnation protects the wooden components of this building kit from fungus and insect infestations. The building kit can be assembled immediately upon delivery. The wooden surface should be further treated no sooner than 2-3 sunny months later, after the excess impregnation has dried. Lightly sand and clean the surface prior to coating. Apply two coats of premium wood varnish to the surface. Look for good UV protection of the products and follow the guidelines of the varnish manufacturer. Calculate service intervals of about 4-5 years, prior to the appearance of visible damage. Follow the processing guidelines of the varnish manufacturer.
Steel roof cladding
The roof covering is made of galvanised trapezoidal steel sheet. The polyester coating on both sides, the upper side in elegant anthracite and the underside in light grey, not only ensures a modern appearance, but also effectively protects the material from the effects of the weather.
Thanks to its low thermal expansion, the trapezoidal steel sheet is particularly stable and minimises the risk of deformation, even in the event of extreme temperature fluctuations. The robust design guarantees very high resistance to hail and snow.
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.
