GroundPlug products for carports

If your carport is built on posts, you will typically combine a GroundPlug® Screw Pile Foundation from our M16 or M20 series with a GroundPlug® TwisterTM M16 or M20 Post bracket. If your carport is made of horizontal beams and walls, you can just use the TwisterTM Screw Piles without the post bracket instead. Which kind of GroundPlug® Foundation you will need depends on several parameters, such as height of your carport, amount of posts, soil conditions and more.

Smart and efficient installation

Installing GroundPlug® TwisterTM Foundations for carports works both easy, fast and efficiently. It only takes a few minutes to install one GroundPlug® Foundation and the only tool you need is a good, strong impact wrench.
