Best For carport: shelterlogic front Door

Buy on Amazon

Next on the list, we've got yet another tarp that manages to win our hearts. It's the shelterlogic front door and it's widely considered as tarp that has the most suitable features. It is certainly better than parking out in the elements in new england. It features a 1 3/8-inch all-steel frame with a dupont powder-coat finish designed to resist chipping, peeling, rust, and corrosion. It has gaps where rain or snow could blow in. The door entry will drag a little on the roof so if you have the roof rack, you need someone to watch as you pull in. It does come with anchors.

It is solid and does a great job standing up to the wind and rain. There is also no ventilation so if you plan on using this as a workshop and not a carport then know the fumes will get trapped.

Why We Like This:

Requires two people to put up and takes some time
Locks down and squares up frames for initial and continuous frame to fabric fit
Zippers work great, even in icy conditions
Easy to put up and the plastic is of very high quality
