Critters keep damaging the truck (chewing things, covered in other threads) so I'm thinking that I need to enclose the carport to protect the truck. All the other 'tricks' don't seem to work long term.
I don't want it to become an oven and baking the truck all summer, so for the sides I was thinking of using 1/2" square wire. Should be easy enough to install, just treat it like a giant chicken coop.
What about for the ends where I need doors? The 'real' doors you can get for these all make the opening narrower and if that's the case I won't be able to get the truck inside. Even a roll-up needs some space on the sides.
Maybe something hinged on the outside of the posts rather than the inside? Make a door out of aluminum channel and cover it with wire?
I also see they make cover kits out of some sort of fabric, but again the door design makes the opening almost 2' narrower overall and are for wider carports than this one.
It's just under 11' outside-to-outside on the front legs.
Ideas?
