Peak Style Roof Instant Garage Carport Car Canopy with Steel Frame and Waterproof UV-Treated Cover

In June, 2023 we bought the basic 10 by 15 Instant Garage for backyard storage in Arizona. The sun here eats almost everything but I was hoping it would last a few years anyway. Assembly was not complicated although the instructions could have been clearer. Nevertheless, the shelter went up easily and the shelter did its job well for a while. However, by the end of the year stress marks began to appear where the cover touched the framework on the sides and a couple of winds later the cover fabric began to separate and tear. The sun cooked it a lot faster than I had hoped. In mid-February we decided to ask about warranty for that kind of damage. I filled out the online warranty request form about noon, sending a few photos of the damaged areas. I received a response from the Shelter Logic Customer Service Representative Jay just a few minutes after 3 the SAME DAY approving the replacement of the cover free of charge! He also offered an upgrade to the heavy duty cover replacement covers taking $200 off of the retail prices. THAT IS CUSTOMER SERVICE AT ITS BEST. Having had a few other issues with other items from other companies, I REALLY APPRECIATE Shelter Logic's response and highly recommend them. Although I cannot afford right now to upgrade, I will plan on doing that in the future when this second cover requires replacement. THANK YOU JAY and SHELTER LOGIC for taking care of this the way you did. EXCELLENT SERVICE. Richard Bartz

Well! What a nice surprise. Our Shelter Logic 1015 Garage in a Box, to be used as my workshop, is Sturdy, Stable, Dry, Attractive. Was not expecting all that. Very pleasantly surprised... Pros: The box was in good shape, undamaged and properly sealed though plenty heavy for one to handle, and delivered on time. The packing was organized and nice and tight without a lot of waste material. As a matter of fact, some of the material used for separators was useful for reinforcing the wear points. All the parts were there except for one nut on one wire clamp. Impressive! Nothing was damaged or out of place and the unpacking was a breeze if a little daunting. There are a LOT of parts and it looked like more of a task than it actually was. The instructions were a pleasant surprise also. There are very few written words and the images are, for the most part, well made and easy to read and follow. There are a few suggestions to make to improve them that I will cover in the "Cons". Assembly for one would be a REAL challenge. I started off alone and got all four arches complete with some difficulty because they are quite ungainly with the fasteners loose. 1-1/2 man hours. I got some help from a good friend (oil field mechanic) the next morning and I don't know that I could have done it without him. He and I spend 3 hours together to finish and that includes finishing the treated wood base frame I had started earlier and anchoring it all to our flat but unlevel asphalt parking slab.. So, 7-1/2 man hours total. Not Bad. This thing is well designed and thought out and everything fits pretty well. Cons: Not too many really, and pretty minor, considering... There are a few pages where a few words or even hieroglyphs would have been useful and saved a do-over or two. The part numbers are all there but are sometimes smeared on the pieces, so a better view of the parts on the individual instruction page would be helpful. In some places, it is not clear whether the view on the page is of the inside or outside and that is generally important. Some of the helpful hints in the circles are not as helpful as the could be because they make little or no sense. A few of the You Tube and even Shelter Logic's own site change the install sequence regarding the lower horizontal tubes. If I did one of these again, I would COMPLETELY assemble the frame and then install the ends and canopy on a squared and secure frame. As it is, the frame is too imprecise to allow final assembly without some trial and error. Improvements: We attached ours to an existing carport frame on one side and to a treated lumber side and closed end frame anchored to the asphalt on the driveway. It is REALLY screwed down well, and almost rigid as a result. I have put Gorilla Tape patches on all the outside stress points there UV and abrasion seem to do their dirty work. I have reinforced the inside of those same areas with the tarp material left from packaging. I wrapped all the joints with Gorilla Tape for wear resistance. Finally, I have purchased a well reviewed product called 303 Aerospace Protectant and UV spray and will treat the entire surface before summer. Summary: All in all, a very well designed and manufactured product by Shelter Logic, and well handled by Amazon. Happy right now. We shall see what the 100+ deg East Texas summer or first tornado or hurricane does.

I have the knock off of this that I use as a greenhouse. Happened to see these on sale and ordered 2 of them. We started putting the first one together today.....and it went pretty well. The frame tubing is a little sturdier than my other one and each joint is bolted together - which is think it much better. Is it a bit of a fight to line up the holes at time? Yes it sure is. Also a few of the joints - I had to file inside the pipes to get the metal edges of the holes filed smooth so the other piece could slide in.....no big deal really. The instructions are not really bad either.....However, since I've put these together before I already have a good idea how it worked. I'm not as sure if I hadn't would it have been as easy. The cover also seems a bit better quality than my other one. The one main complaint I have are the bolts. There are 3 different sizes that all come together in a large bag. Two of them are so close to the same size you spend time trying to find the longer ones. I wish they'd come in separate bags to save time. Since this one will be staying up my plans are to put filled sand bags around the bottom for stability and to keep any water out. Part of the inside will be parking for a vehicle with the back part a little storage. The floor will have plastic sheeting on it initially until the grass and anything else can truly die after I spray it. Then I'll add a pallet and plywood floor to the storage part. Overall I have great luck with portable shelters - just make sure and get them tied down tight and the cover on well. I also faced it where most of the wind will hit the side and not the end. I've noticed that all these shelters seem to have more issues if wind hits the end where the parts overlap than the solid sides. The tie down stakes are nice and deep and sturdy. I do tend to add extra ones in the middle as well....just for extra support. This is a nice little shelter.

Update: the company's lack of response to my multiple inquiries about replacement of the cover is a clear indication that they absolutely do not care about their customers. How in the world is such a terrible company still in business? This is the second shelter I have purchased from this company and I absolutely loved the first one. It lasted for 3+ years without issue. This one though, is having issues after less than a month. The dimensions match the instructions to a T but the tarp doesn't fit properly. The material is much thinner and weaker and was ripped from the tie downs by the wind. Additionally, the pipes and connectors are also lower quality than before. The metal is thinner and the machining is inaccurate meaning I had to drill out several of the bolt holes, bend the connectors to fit properly, and file down and reshape the ends of connecting pipes to fit properly. I am EXTREMELY disappointed in the decline in quality and will likely look for a different brand soon as I doubt this one will last even 6 months. Update: turns out 6 months was generous; it has now ripped in multiple places just because of the wind. The fabric is losing color and rapidly deteriorating and will not last to the end of summer. I will never buy from shelterlogic again because of this low quality garbage. Shame on them charging so much for so little. 1 year later and not only is it full of holes and wearing out where it sits on the frame but now the frame is beginning to rusty too. With shoddy quality like this, I hope the company goes under so they can't screw anyone else out of their money. What a travesty!

11-11-22, had to spend a couple hours tracking down how/where to get a replacement cover for my 2020 vintage garage. Went directly to ShelterLogic site & had to hunt around a little. $250 shipped to Cali for a 10x15x8 peak style garage shelter cover & fixins ( everything but the frame IIRC ) @UPS ground (only option offered). Interesting note, the covers have a white label attached inside that has the replacement cover #, enter the # & the required replacement cover is shown (not necessarily in stock). Also interesting, 3 cover types are offered. Original light weight poly @ ~4.5oz, 14.5oz vinyl (@ 3x the price for my 10x15 unit !!! ), and an even heavier duty version. You peeps not in sunny commifornia prolly need the HD. Personally I would not use this item in an area of Real weather. So, 2 years down the road & this went from a few cat induced tears to serious disintegration in 2 weeks ( as this material ages it becomes quite brittle & once it starts to tear/rot it'll be over very soon ). Had I been prepared to replace the cover I would pick up some billboard vinyl on eBay & recover myself ( less than &100 for similar sized heavy weight material !). HTH J 12-03-22 update, Purchased a cover kit from SL directly. While this is a complete 'kit' for replacing the shelter cover ( main cover, front & rear end panels & tightening ratchets ) this really didn't fit very well & was much more difficult to align and install than the original cover. I suspect from the Russian language ( my guess anyway ) instructions & packaging that this is for a metric sized shelter in place of my original imperial sized unit. Or this is just a very poorly made replacement cover. I fussed over the fitment 2x as much time as the original installation. The original lasted almost exactly 2 years which is longer than I anticipated needing.If this shelter remains in use long enough to need another replacement cover I'll prolly just use a high quality tarp @ 1/2 the price. Odd how Shelter Logic offers a higher grade cover , but @ nearly 3x the cost of original purchase price ...??? I'll shop elsewhere next time. J

I own this portable garage (10" x 15") from Shelter Logic more than 5 month.I live in Putnam County NY.After i build it up it was tested with all weather conditions,from hurricane Irene to our October heavy snow storm.If place where you want build it up have little angle,still is okay.Just if you have there some bumps or holes,make it flat.I build it half on grass and half on parking blacktop.For secure on black top take your instructions plane and visit local hardware store and ask there.They will help you.I was used longer drill and few Expansion Anchors with nuts and washers.First of all.FEW FREE TIPS; A)Don't be silly and when you will build it up CHECK TO INSTRUCTIONS,FOLLOW NUMBERS AND YOU WILL SAVE FEW HOURS OF MY WORK.Because i was stupid j.. a.... and "Smart" people never read instructions.BUT IN THIS CASE I WAS WRONG.All tubing have a numbers and are big help.So that why i finish it little later,but I DID IT JUST MY SELF,without someone help.Just every time finish one side,don't jump here and there and think. B)If you have a plane build it under tree,like i did,be sure you,(or ask someone),better trim all large branches few feet top on your shed.If they fold down because of heavy snow or big wind they will hit and can damage your cover or all shelter. C) Secure your garage with Shelter Logic 30" Auger Anchors model # 10075.0,($20 at Home Depot) They are longer and will hold it down much better and stronger. D) SNOW REMOVAL!!Still construction is just from light tubes.(Don't forget.How much you paid.) DON'T LET IT COVER WITH HUNDRED POUND OF SNOW!It is much stronger than looks and can keep few pounds of snow ,(i do it when have have 3-4"),but it's individual,depend if is heavy or just nice,light snow.Better early than late.(Check all pictures) If you will follow my tips,you will also enjoy this cheep but great portable garage.If you are little tired from regular cover,(still up and down),and also from snow removal it's for you.It's good size for my 2010 JEEP Wrangler JK and now is my toy still clean and shiny.I doesn't work for Shelter Logic.I'm just happy client and doesn't like that all bad reviews.This is my first review and i hope you will understand it and will little help to you.I will try also download few pictures.So... YOU CAN DO IT! GOOD LUCK. >>>UPDATE<<< AFTER 16 MONTH I STILL LOVE IT!!!!! If you will LOOK AT MY FEW PHOTOS you will know why. TWO BEST STEPS; 1)>>> READ AND FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS and YOU CAN SAVE FEW HOURS <<<, 2)>>> Better REMOVE SNOW <<< As you can see,my JEEP can fit there ok.Don't buy it for 2005 Toyota Corolla.It's longer than 2door Jeep JK! AFTER that VERY BAD HEAVY SNOW STORM last year AND AFTER HURRICANE SANDY is my SHELTER LOGIC portable garage still in good shape.As you can also see on my photos,this Spring a installed for better ventilation ShelterVent Part #10031. TIP;You can put on door steel but light weight electric tube.Just roll up with hands and doors will keep a shape.If any questions regard this product,you can email me to [email protected]. Good luck guys.

Frame still good after 10 years. On my second cover.Used for Hay Storage. I live in upstateNew York & keep the snow cleaned off.

The package arrived severely damaged! Torn open on one side and covered in packing tape. Now this could be the carriers fault as not all companies are gentle with heavier items. Unpacking the box lead to the discovery of a missing pole and ratchet strap. Called the company and they are sending the replacement as we speak. The poles were scratched and fairly dirty. The bolts are not sorted which isn’t a problem but they all have the same markings making it harder to figure out which is which. The small and medium length bolts are very close in length. The directions are picture based with part numbers. Nothing is written. Makes it easy for some but for me it was harder. You definitely need a small ladder as well as two people to assemble. Being 5’5, I can not reach the areas needed to do this alone. Much cursing ensued. After the frame was completed the cover went on easy. I did add some duct tape to areas that will be most likely to rub and cause premature damage to the cover. The back does not open. It flaps around a bit in the wind. I used bungee straps to try and add some support. It helped but a bar and clams would be better. I will add an up date as the weather is changing from summer to fall and one for winter. We normally do not get bad winters with a lot of snow but I think maybe adding some roof bracing should help. 1 year update... Since I bought this I have had two tropical storms and a 85mph wind storm. It held up good!! One of the support poles broke but the cover held on good. No major complaints. Increased to four stars. Will seek purchasing replacement parts soon but it has done its job well. I do have it tied down fairly securely.

The tent garage is good. It took longer than 2 hours to set it up, but it's fairly straightforward, and the instructions are excellent. I did quite a bit of the setup on my own, but it was helpful to have extra people there when putting the cover on and getting the frame up. I would have preferred that Shelter Logic sorted the carriage bolts of different lengths into different packages. If you purchase this, be sure to sort them by length before you put the garage together. The tent was an excellent deal on Amazon, and came with everything needed including the anchors. I would purchase this again.

hard to set up, but held up during summer rains and winds. Took down and stored for the winter, and plan to reuse next summer as an outdoor work area.

Did not last 2 seasons! Started to tear before the end of first season (summer). This was our second one. The first lasted much longer. Very disappointed this time.

Easy to assermble but even with great care the cover ripped . It's very thin and plastic like and doesn't seem to have no core of woven threads to give it resistance or structure . I'd be surprised if it made it through the whole winter but we'll see !

Okay, so it took 2 of us about 6 hours to put up...including shoveling the snow out of the way and feeding the deer. But it was great fun and has easy to follow instructions. Highly recommended!
