Build & price your Moore carport
Moore has been hit harder than almost any town in America by tornadoes, and that history shapes how people here think about every structure on their property. Barn Brothers takes that seriously. The metal carports Moore OK homeowners ask for tend to come with real questions about anchoring, gauge, and what survives versus what doesn't. We don't oversell. A carport is a carport, not a storm shelter, and we'll be straight with you about what proper engineering does and doesn't do. We've installed all over Moore, from the rebuilt neighborhoods along SW 4th Street where the 2013 storm tracked through, out to newer additions near 19th Street and the I-35 corridor. Moore's lots are a mix, some older smaller post-war parcels in the historic core, and bigger newer builds south and west. We anchor properly, we use heavier framing where wind exposure justifies it, and we don't cut corners on the parts you can't see once it's standing.

Permits
Most: none
Moore runs permits through its Community Development department, and accessory structures over 120 square feet typically require a building permit. After the 2013 storm Moore strengthened its building code requirements, including for residential additions and accessory structures, and inspectors here pay close attention to anchoring and structural details. Standard R-1 setbacks require 5 feet from side property lines and 25 feet from the front, with rear setbacks varying. Lots inside the city's overlay districts along major corridors carry additional design review. HOA presence varies, older Moore neighborhoods rarely have active HOAs while newer additions south of 19th Street and west toward I-44 commonly do. Floodplain overlays affect properties along Moore Creek and smaller drainage paths. We provide engineering details and anchoring specs to support your permit application.
What your Moore carport actually has to survive
Moore sits in Cleveland County, near Veterans Memorial Park, with road access via I-35 / SW 4th Street. The 2018 IBC wind speed map puts most of this region in the 115 MPH ultimate design wind zone (Risk Category II, Exposure C), which converts to roughly a 90 MPH nominal basic wind speed on engineered drawings.
Standard 14-gauge framing with mobile-home anchors and 29-gauge roofing rates to about 90 MPH — exactly the minimum, with zero margin. Our certified units are engineered up to 140 MPH wind and 35 PSF snow load depending on bracing, anchor pattern, and roof style. Out on open ridges and exposed pasture, we strongly recommend going certified at minimum 105 MPH.
Anchoring matters more than gauge. Most of Cleveland County sits on the kind of clay-loam soils that give standard 30-inch mobile-home rebar anchors trouble — they lose 30–50% of their pull-out strength in dry months. We use 48-inch helical/auger anchors for any carport over 18 feet wide on dirt, concrete wedge anchors on slabs, and asphalt anchors with epoxy bonding on blacktop. Expect $80–$150 in anchor upgrades over the base “mobile home anchor” pricing other companies advertise. Worth every penny.
Snow load is low, ice is real. Design ground snow load for this part of Oklahoma is roughly 8 PSF under ASCE 7-16. But the 2021 ice storm dropped 1–2 inches of solid ice across much of the state. A quarter-inch of ice on a 20×26 vertical-roof carport adds roughly 400–500 pounds of point load. Vertical roof sheds it; horizontal-panel regular roofs trap it. That’s why we push vertical hard for any building over 24 feet wide.

Apply with my quoteFour ways to pay — honest math, side by side
A bare-bones 20×21 carport runs in the low four figures; a fully enclosed 30×41 shop can push past $20,000. Here are the four legitimate ways to pay for one — we’ll quote all of them on the same email and let you decide.
1. Cash or card (best price)
Pay cash and we discount 3–5% off the financed price. On a $6,800 carport that’s $200–$340 back in your pocket. Card payments accepted up to $10,000 (2.9% processor fee passed through).
2. Traditional financing
Three lender partners specializing in outdoor structures & ag buildings. APR range 7.49%–17.99%, terms 24–120 months, soft credit pull for pre-qualification. Same-day approval. Lender pays us at completion.
3. Rent-to-own (no credit check)
No credit check. Approval based on ID + verifiable monthly income, under 10 minutes. Down payment is first month + one-month security deposit. 36/48/60-month terms, you own it outright at the end. Total cost runs ~1.6–1.9× cash price.
4. Split-pay (half now, half on install)
Waiting on a tax refund, hay check, or royalty deposit? Split into two payments — half down to lock production, balance the day the crew rolls off your property. No interest. Max project size $12,000.
Three layers of coverage, in plain English
Every Moore build carries frame, panel, and workmanship warranties, with optional engineer certification for permits or insurance.
Frame warranty
20 years
Every leg, rafter, brace, and purlin warranted against rust-through and structural failure for 20 years from install. Hot-dipped galvanized 14-ga steel standard, 12-ga upgrade available. G90 zinc spec (0.90 oz/sq ft both sides) — the agricultural building workhorse standard.
Panel warranty
10 years
29-ga sheet panels carry a 10-year manufacturer warranty against fade, chalk, and chip-through. Silicone-modified polyester paint over galvalume substrate — the same material on most commercial pole barns across Oklahoma. 26-ga upgrade extends panel warranty to 20 years (+8–12% panel-line cost).
Workmanship
1 year
Anything our crew installs is warranted for 12 months from completion. Loose bolts, misaligned panels, leaks at penetrations, anchor failure on level ground — we come back and fix it on our dime. Most claims hit in the first 90 days, almost always after the first big windstorm.
Engineer certification (optional)
For buyers who need stamped drawings — typically those building inside Moore city limits, financing through a bank that requires it, or installing in flood-prone zones — we offer engineer-certified plans for an additional $375–$650 depending on building size. Certified buildings are engineered to specific wind and snow loads (standard for this part of Oklahoma is 90 MPH wind, 8 PSF snow; we can spec up to 140 MPH wind / 35 PSF snow). Stamp issued by a licensed Oklahoma PE and accepted by every Cleveland County permit office we’ve worked with.
What is not covered: acts of God (tornadoes, hail over 1.5″, named storms), modifications by third parties, damage from impacts (tractors, livestock, vehicles), and rust from coastal salt exposure. Trim accessories (gable ends, ridge caps) are covered for 5 years rather than 10 because of the way the bend stresses the paint.
Metal carport vs. wood vs. prefab kit
After 20+ years of building across Oklahoma, here’s the straight talk on three options Moore buyers actually consider.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a permit for a metal carport in Moore or Cleveland County?+
For most residential carports under 200 square feet inside Moore city limits, no permit is required, but anything larger or attached to an existing structure should be cleared with City Hall first. Cleveland County generally does not require permits for ag-use carports on properties outside city limits, which covers most rural addresses we install at. We always recommend a quick call to the city clerk’s office if you’re inside the city, and we’ll provide stamped engineered drawings on certified units to make that conversation easy.
What about HOA approvals?+
Most older neighborhoods near Moore have very few HOAs, but if you’re in a newer subdivision or a neighborhood with covenants, check your CC&Rs before ordering. Most HOAs that do exist in this part of Oklahoma allow metal carports as long as the color matches the home and the structure is set behind the front building line. We can provide a color rendering and dimensioned site plan you can submit for board approval at no charge.
How do you anchor a carport on Oklahoma clay?+
Clay is friendly to work with as long as it’s not saturated. On bare ground we use 32-inch rebar anchors driven at opposing angles through the base rail, which gives excellent pull-out resistance once the clay sets back around them. On concrete pads we use 3/8-inch wedge anchors, and on asphalt we use mobile-home auger anchors. We adjust the anchor package based on what we see when our crew arrives.
Are these carports tornado-rated?+
No carport, ours or anyone else’s, is rated to survive a direct tornado strike. What our certified units are rated for is sustained wind loads up to 140 MPH and gusts associated with severe thunderstorms, which covers the vast majority of weather events Moore sees in a year. For maximum survivability, we recommend the 12-gauge frame, fully enclosed sides, and concrete anchoring.
How long does delivery to Moore take?+
Standard lead time from order to install in Moore is currently 3 to 5 weeks, with certified units running closer to 5 to 7 weeks because the engineered drawings have to be produced first. We schedule installs in geographic clusters, so if we already have a job booked nearby that week, we can sometimes move you up.
Concrete pad, gravel, or dirt — which do I need?+
All three work, and we install on all three regularly. Bare dirt is the cheapest and perfectly fine for vehicle storage; gravel is our most popular base because it drains well and stays cleaner; concrete is the premium choice and required if you ever want to fully enclose the structure later.
What colors can I choose?+
We offer 13 standard panel colors at no upcharge, including Barn Red, Burnished Slate, Pebble Beige, Quaker Gray, Ivory, Forest Green, Rustic Red, Black, White, Light Stone, Hawaiian Blue, Clay, and Galvalume bare metal. Roof and walls can be different colors, and trim can be a third color for a two-tone look.
Certified versus non-certified — what’s the difference?+
A certified unit comes with stamped engineered drawings showing it meets specific wind and snow load ratings for your county, and uses heavier anchoring and additional bracing to hit those numbers. If you need a permit, are in a windy exposed location, or want insurance to cover it as a permanent structure, get certified — typically a $300–$700 upcharge.
What’s the minimum credit score for financing?+
Our financing partner approves customers with scores as low as 600 for the standard program, and there is also a no-credit-check rent-to-own option that approves nearly everyone. Most customers see 24- to 60-month options with payments starting around $89/month on a basic carport.
How much deposit do I need?+
For cash orders we require a 10% deposit at signing, with the balance due the day of installation by check or card. For financed orders the deposit is typically zero down, and for rent-to-own the first month’s payment serves as your deposit. We do not ask for full payment up front under any circumstances.
How do warranty claims work?+
Our 20-year rust-through warranty on the panels is handled directly by the panel manufacturer with our help — you call us, we file the paperwork, and they ship replacement panels if there’s a manufacturing defect. The 1-year workmanship warranty on the install is handled by us in-house.
Can I move the carport to a new property later?+
Yes, our carports can be disassembled and relocated, and we offer that as a service for around $400–$900 depending on size and distance. The frame and panels are reusable; the anchors and any concrete work stay behind.
Can I add sides or fully enclose it later?+
Absolutely, and a lot of our Moore customers do exactly that. An open carport can be converted to a partially enclosed structure or a fully enclosed garage in a few hours, using the same color panels we originally installed.
Will a metal carport survive a tornado in Moore?+
We have to be straight with you: no standard residential metal carport, ours or anyone else's, is engineered to survive a direct EF3 or stronger tornado. What we do build to is the 90 mph IBC straight-line wind standard with proper concrete pier anchoring, which handles the vast majority of severe weather Moore sees. For tornado protection, plan on a hardened safe room.
Did Moore strengthen its building code after 2013?+
Yes. Moore tightened residential code requirements after the 2013 tornado, particularly around anchoring and connection details. Inspectors here look closely at how the carport ties to its foundation. We anchor into concrete piers below frost depth as standard, and we can provide stamped engineering drawings if your inspector requests them.
What's the best gauge panel for Moore's hail?+
We recommend 26-gauge panels for any property in the Moore area given the hail history. The standard 29-gauge holds up to most storms but the heavier panel adds real margin against the larger stones we see every few years. Cost difference is modest compared to replacement after a major hail event.
What Moore neighbors are saying
4.9★ average across 120 Google reviews
★★★★★
“I called three companies about a metal garage for my tractor. Two of them quoted me higher and wanted six weeks just to get a stamped plan. Marcy had me a written quote the same afternoon and the crew was here 18 days later. Whole thing went up in a day and a half. The roll-up door tracks were a hair off when they finished — they came back the next Friday on their own and adjusted them, no charge, no argument.”
★★★★★
“Bought a small travel trailer last spring and needed something to keep the sun off it. I am on a fixed income, so the rent-to-own option was the only way I could swing it. The lady on the phone walked me through the whole thing twice without making me feel dumb for asking. The crew showed up at 7:45 a.m. like they said they would, and the foreman shook my hand before he left. Little things matter.”
★★★★★
“Needed cover for round bales before fall cutting. Called several others — all of them wanted 8 to 10 weeks. Barn Brothers had it standing in 23 days flat. The crew showed up at 7 a.m., were eating lunch in the truck by noon, and packed up at 4. I have had it through one round of those April storms now and it has not creaked. Worth every dollar.”
