Some carports are just practical. Others bring real presence to a property.
This Dutch Gable carport, recently completed by QHI National, is a perfect blend of timeless form and modern structural integrity. Nestled in a leafy backyard, it offers both visual impact and long-term functionality.
Why Dutch Gable?
The Dutch Gable is more than just a roof shape. It’s a style statement that lifts the entire look of a home.
It delivers:
• A high, ventilated roofline that adds volume and character
• Balanced symmetry from every angle
• Compatibility with both traditional and modern homes
• A finished look that stands apart from standard flat or skillion carports
This structure doesn’t just provide shelter. It adds real value.
Colour Choices That Work
This client went for a bold and classic Colorbond palette:
• Manor Red roofing for standout visual appeal
• Monument beams and trims for a sharp, modern edge
• Timber-look posts for warmth and contrast
• Surfmist ceiling panels underneath to keep the interior bright
The result is a carport that feels intentional and polished, not just functional.
How We Built It
The QHI National team delivered a complete install using our proven process:
• Structural steel frame with engineered Dutch Gable trusses
• Core-drilled and concreted posts for long-term stability
• Accurate, pre-measured components that go up quickly and cleanly
• Fully compliant with the National Construction Code and engineered to local wind ratings
• Finished with matching Colorbond gutters, flashings, and trims
This project was built to perform under pressure and to look good while doing it.
