Kostum FAQ — Carports
Answers to your questions
Last updated:
I want to install a carport, how is it different from a closed garage?
A carport is an open shelter, usually made of metal, designed to protect your car while remaining accessible. Unlike a garage, which is enclosed and requires major brickwork, a carport is more affordable and integrates seamlessly into your outdoor space. It’s the perfect balance between a controlled budget and durable protection.
I want to install a carport to protect my car and store my equipment, is that possible?
Yes, hybrid carports are available. They are integrated with a closed, secure storage unit (garden shed) attached to the parking area. It’s the ideal solution to protect your car from the elements while keeping your bikes or lawn mower safe from theft.

All Kostum gates can be motorized. The type of motorization depends on several factors: swing or sliding gate, weight and dimensions of the gate... Taking these characteristics into account, Kostum installer partners will determine the most efficient and suitable motorization for your needs.
And because Kostum adapts to your lifestyle, you can motorize your gate later, after installation.
