Carports in Kommetjie
Kommetjie sees some of the more direct wind and salt exposure on the peninsula, and this affects both carport and shadeport design here.

We size shadeports with extra attention to post spacing and shadecloth tension given the consistent wind.
Aluminium or well-coated steel are the recommended materials for full carports in this kind of exposure.
Designing for Kommetjie’s Wind Exposure
Kommetjie’s consistent coastal wind means shadeports need proper engineering here, extra attention to post spacing and shadecloth tensioning rather than a standard spec. Full carports should use aluminium or well-coated steel to handle the salt air.

Kommetjie Carport FAQs
Can a shadeport handle Kommetjie’s wind?
Yes, if properly engineered with the right post spacing and shadecloth tension for the exposure.
What material suits a full carport here?
Aluminium or properly coated steel, both of which resist the area’s salt-air corrosion.
Is Kommetjie more exposed than other South Peninsula areas?
It tends to see more direct wind than some more sheltered spots, which is something we factor into the design.
