Arrow Garages & Storage Shelters

Q: Do I need a permit for a portable garage?

A portable garage that stays up year-round is usually treated as an accessory building, with a size limit and setbacks, and may need a permit — unlike a temporary winter car shelter. Check your municipal bylaw before you order.

Q: Can it stay up all winter?

Yes. The ShelterCoat, ShelterTube and Sojag Everest ranges are designed for year-round use in Canada. Clear heavy snow from the cover after big storms and keep the frame anchored and the cover tensioned.

Protect your vehicles, ATVs and equipment with a garage you put up yourself: fabric garages and storage shelters on steel frames (ShelterLogic ShelterCoat, ShelterTube, AutoShelter, Garage-in-a-Box) and bolt-together steel garages (Sojag Everest, Arrow Murryhill). They give cars, trucks, motorcycles and power equipment secure, weather-tight storage without the cost of a permanent concrete building.

Available in single and double vehicle sizes with roll-up or zip-up doors, side entry doors and vents. Fabric models have a galvanized or powder-coated steel frame under a waterproof polyethylene cover; steel models have galvanized steel panels that resist rust through Canadian winters. Many models are rated for snow loads and include anchoring hardware. The Roof Type filter shows one kind or the other.

Portable garage or car shelter?

A portable garage is the year-round option: ShelterLogic ShelterCoat and ShelterTube frames are wind-and-snow rated, take a heavier cover, and come in sizes up to 20 x 32 ft for two vehicles, a boat or a workshop. The Sojag Everest is a bolt-together steel garage with a rigid roof. If you only need to keep snow off one car from October to April, a lighter winter car shelter does the job for less; for an open-sided permanent structure, see our steel carports.

Portable garage FAQ

Do I need a permit for a portable garage?

Rules differ from the temporary winter car shelter: a portable garage that stays up year-round is usually treated as an accessory building, with a size limit and setbacks, and may need a permit. Check your municipal bylaw before you order.

Can it stay up all winter?

Yes — the ShelterCoat, ShelterTube and Everest ranges are designed for year-round use in Canada. Clear heavy snow from the cover after big storms and keep the frame anchored and the cover tensioned, as the manufacturer instructions describe.

How is it delivered?

Portable garages ship flat on a pallet or in cartons by freight, with free shipping on most orders over $88*. Most carriers deliver to the curb by default and, when they offer that service, contact you to book a delivery appointment. Delivery takes about 3–15 business days from your order, depending on the distance (an estimate). Remote areas, islands and the territories can take longer. Read the ShelterLogic portable garage setup guide for the tools and time each model needs.

*Conditions apply. See our Shipping Policy for details.

Arrow builds steel outdoor buildings that ship flat and bolt together on a level base: galvanized storage sheds, metal carports and prefab garage-size buildings. The shed lines cover compact pent-roof and patio models (Yardsaver, Spacemaker Patio), low- and high-gable kits (EZEE Shed), the mid-size Classic, Select and Elite steel sheds, the Woodridge coffee and woodgrain finish, the Ironwood steel hybrid kit, the garage-size Murryhill, and a resin series. Carports are galvanized steel frames in 7, 9 and 14 ft leg heights that take one-, two- and three-sided enclosure kits.

IPATIO lists Arrow sheds from 2 x 4 to 14 x 31 ft and carports from 10 x 15 to 14 x 51 ft, plus the floor frame kits, shelving, roof strengthening kits, enclosure panels and anchors made for them. Every series and size is listed at the bottom of this page.

Arrow FAQ

What sizes of Arrow sheds can I buy in Canada?

Arrow sheds at IPATIO run from 2 x 4 to 14 x 31 ft. The small end is the resin series and the compact Yardsaver and Spacemaker Patio models, for a balcony or a side yard; Classic, Select, Elite and EZEE Shed cover the usual backyard sizes; the Murryhill is the garage-size building (the 14 x 31 ft building is a Murryhill). The sizes we carry are listed above this FAQ.

Do Arrow sheds come with a floor?

No. Arrow steel sheds are wall-and-roof kits that anchor to a level base you prepare — a concrete pad, patio slabs or a wooden platform. Arrow sells a matching floor frame kit for most shed lines, and we list those with the shed and garage accessories; you supply the plywood or deck boards that sit in the frame.

Which Arrow shed line should I choose?

By footprint and roof: Yardsaver has a pent (single-slope) roof for tight spots against a wall; Spacemaker Patio is the shallow patio model; EZEE Shed comes in low gable and extra-high gable for headroom; Classic, Select and Elite are the mid-size steel sheds; Woodridge adds a coffee and woodgrain finish; Ironwood is a steel hybrid kit; Murryhill is the garage-size building, up to 14 x 31 ft.

Can an Arrow carport be closed in?

Yes. The carport is a galvanized steel frame, and enclosure kits close one, two or three sides — they are sold separately and sized to the carport, so order the kit that matches your frame. The enclosure panels and anchor kits are listed under carport accessories.

What sizes and heights do Arrow carports come in?

Arrow carports at IPATIO run from 10 x 15 to 14 x 51 ft, in 7, 9 and 14 ft leg heights — the taller frames take an RV or a raised truck. The full size list is above this FAQ.
