Genuine Australian Made and Manufactured Steel

Don’t be deceived by companies saying it is 100% manufactured in Australia. You must also ask if the actual steel is made in Australia as well. You see, when the steel is refined it ends up as a large coil of flat material. It is then roll-formed after that into the shape that is needed, such as a roof sheet or a piece of gutter. Excalibur carports only supplies Aussie made and manufactured steel. This also includes Colorbond.

Frequently Asked Questions for Carports

•  What’s Included With My Carport? – When you order your carport in kit form, every part needed is included. This includes the frame, posts, roof & infill sheets, flashings, guttering, downpipes and fasteners. Even a tube of silicone for sealing the gutter.  
•  Can I have a Choice of Colours? – With us, you get to choose from any of the colours in the Colorbond range, as well as Zincalume. We only use and recommend genuine Colorbond coated steel. Be aware on inferior steel and coatings. Colorbond steel is made in Australia and tested for Australian conditions.
•  How Long Does it Take to Manufacture Carports? – Due to the current situation in Australia, challenges with supply and workers is constantly affecting lead times. Some states are better off than others, but allow at least 9 weeks, up to 16 weeks from day of order & payment, to delivery. This however can be longer. Steel suppliers have notified the industry to expect delays. As such, we cannot at this stage guarantee a time period. This can extend out slightly in busy periods, such as Christmas.
•  I Need Engineering for Council Approval, Can I Get That? – Yes, every carport supplied includes full site specific engineering for your particular location.
•  Do You Offer Installation? – No, we specialise in supply of carport kits to most of Australia. Unfortunately however, we do not get involved in construction or installation. We may be able to put you in touch with experienced trades if needed. They will deal direct with you, to simply and easily complete your project.
•  Can I add a Roller Door or Panel Door? – Roller/Panel doors are not covered under the standard engineering. Carports are designed as open sided structures and adding roller doors or walls compromises the design, and can affect the wind load and dead load on the building. People have their own choice in what they do, but we recommend against it, and will not be liable for any consequences. 
•  Can I Fix to a Concrete Slab – In nearly every case, the answer is no. The use of footing plates on existing concrete is limited. They cannot be used in Cyclonic wind regions. In non-cyclonic wind regions, there must be adequate footings under the concrete, made to the engineering requirements. You are also limited with size and height. The best option is to either cut holes out of the concrete (a common practice these days) or change the carport size to go outside the line of the concrete if possible. The use of footing plates may compromise the design and engineering of the building. Again, Excalibur Carports and Excalibur Steel Buildings will not be liable for any consequences where the engineering has not been followed.
•  Do I Need Council Approval? – In most cases you will need approval from Council. The best option would be talk with a local private/building certifier or building surveyor. They can assist you in getting your building approved in the quickest and easiest way.
•  What Tools are Needed? – Basic steel building tools are all that is needed in most cases. These include a cordless drill and/or screw gun, tin snips, sockets or spanners, spirit level, tape measure, pencil etc. You may also need things such as clamps to hold the posts or the frame as you are assembling.
