What Is a Car Canopy?
Car canopies are portable devices that provide vehicles with protection from direct sunlight. Available in designs that are open-air as well as enclosed, a car canopy can be used as an inexpensive way to provide shelter for the car at home, or to take along for camping trips. Several sizes of the canopy are available, making it possible to create a temporary carport for just about any size vehicle. In general, a car canopy is composed of metal framing combined with a canvas roof. The components of the frame are usually manufactured so they snap or fit together without the aid of tools. Once the frame is assembled, the canvas roof is draped over the top of the structure and either tied or snapped into place.
