Vevor 12x20 Portable Garage full assembly and overview

- I was in need of a portable garage to cover my new pickup truck. The Vevor 12x20 is the ideal solution. This size has plenty of room to allow for the truck to park and open the doors. The portable garage is strong with all metal poles and supports. This cover has a water proof top and sides to keep the weather out. Four large windows on the sides allow for plenty of air flow to keep the garage from getting too hot. Both front and back have a zipper door so you can enter either side with ease.

Nice packaging for shipment. The "snap button" connectors on the poles and the elastic "ball and loop" connectors for the tarps are really nice features.
Perfect! This is my project for today, and I'm so glad you took the time to make a video that's clear and thorough on the assembly. Much better than following the little booklet they included. Thanks.
Nice to hear that the video was helpful. So far the Shelter has been working well.
@@LandtoHouse it turned out really nice; but took me about 6 hours total. I tethered the sand bags with some paracord to the frame like you did to anchor them even more. Looks pretty good. I have a Tacoma as well and it fits inside well.
@mojorayjones I'm glad to hear that you got your shelter in place. Recently we had some very strong winds. So I took some old tires with rocks and weighted this down even more.
What about winds? When heavy rains? @@LandtoHouse
You did a great and thorough installation walkthrough and review. The manufacturer should give you your money back as a gratuity!
Thank you. This shelter has worked well. Keeping the sun off the truck for several months now.
@@LandtoHouse nice I want to use mine in the backyard as an exercise shed to keep the rain off the equipment
Thanks for the great video. My wife and I like to decorate the house and driveway for halloween, and we think this will make a perfect tunnel or passageway for the trick or treaters as they come to the front steps. We can have hot chocolate and a heater inside for adults as well.
Once Halloween is over we can move it around the back and use it to shelter the snowmobiles.
Great video.
It looks a lot more premium in the photos. It looks kind of cheap here in the video, but it looks like its still the best option for the price to work on cars out of the sun and rain.
Very helpful video.
Thank you for this amazing video súper clear, I was wait for a video like yours, I’m buying it now 😎🔥🔥🔥.
Happy to help. I have used this for several months and it's doing very well.
@@LandtoHouse thank you 🙏
Great vid and glad I watched! I want a shelter like this to keep the elements off my classic Ford, but the truck is roughly 7 ft at the roof. So no go for me, but great vid!
The only problem I saw in this whole video, no one brought you a beer. In fact, I didn't even see you with a cold one on your hand.
Haha that's funny. I've never even had a cold one. The carport is holding up well. Blows around in the wind a bit.
I started putting mine up yesterday afternoon. I have to finish today.
@@LandtoHousehey man we are looking to take this on a hunting trip up north in may. Is it water proof? And how long did it take you to set up by yourself? Thanks in advance.
That is like a premiere edition compared to H.F.'s. Theirs is 10 dollars more and not as nice. The tubing on theirs is a lot t6hinner as well. One door and no windows. The H.F. ones doesn't have the push buttons on their tubing frame also so some people put self tapping screws in them. Great job!!
Judging from the ratchet straps and much beefier ground anchors, the dark gray HF 12’x20’ ($399) portable garage seems a lot more sophisticated. The tarp material in this Vevor garage seems much flimsier and is only attached by these little bungee loops plus some Velcro strips. The HF one has sown sleeves where poles slide through and hold it in place. There’s really no comparison here.
Thanks for the video! My Vevor 10x20 was just delivered. I got this for protecting my new car, Im not in a permanent living location so i didn't want to build a garage. Im also concerned about snow, but have a Shelter Logic thats on its 4th winter we have some heavy snow in CT and its doing great although Im diligent about taking snow off of it. Im hoping Vevor will be just as durable... 🤔 🤞
Put it up today, it already tried to take off before we could get it grounded 🥴 and we only had 12mph winds today... Definitely a cheaper product than Shelter Logic, will be having to reinforce with lower conduit pipes since this product doesn't have any lower pipes to the frame, this also causes the sides to flap around,and we are having to use tie down straps attached to boulders since only 3 earth anchors cooperated with the rocks in the ground. The anchors it comes with do nothing to secure this tent. I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with the quality when comparing to Shelter Logic, but ya get what you pay for 😣 I hope it lasts at least one season and doesn't actually collapse... 😮
We just took down our shelter logic because it got destroyed by the Sun. It was on its second tarp thrown over the top and tied to the base due to it ripping apart and disintegrating. On second tarp now the door disintegrated into nothing, so it went down.
I think this thing might also be a nice partytent too. If you're having some friends/family over for a (bbq)gardenparty and you're not sure about the weather, this thing can keep your guests dry.
(I don't know how that's over there, but over here in the Netherlands most summerdays showers are predicted, but you never know where or when they gonna fall. You can keep checking the rainradar, but you only know for sure when water starts falling from the sky. And then you either find some shelter within 30seconds or you're soaking wet. But that's for 5-10minutes (maybe 20 if it's a big one) and then your party can go on.)
And how about a dj-boot at your gardenparty, just a few drops of rain might seriously spoil the fun...
Or if you want to watch the game with your mates, but none of your wifes wants that mess in the house.
Watch it in a temporary garage!
Very good point. this portable garage Sets up reasonably quick with 1 person. If you had 3 or 4 you could have this up very quickly.
I just called VevorAnd they said that they do not have a top or a side replacement part for the 12 x 20.However they do for the 10 x 20 what a shame really would've liked to have had the 12 x 20 but it would just be junk in 2 to 3 years I doubt that the tops last any longer most likely less than three years. Although I really liked the bracing on these
HF’s 12’x20’ portable garage for $399 seems a much more solid choice. No windows but the frame actually anchors to the ground (not just stakes or sandbags) and straps the one-piece main skin down solid to the ground (no openings other than the two roll up doors).
I hope this one is more durable and lasts longer than its predecessor. My friend's 'party tent' used those bungee balls and the elastic aged out rather quickly on him. You may want to get a bag of spares for your annual maintenance.
Adding zip ties next to each one could be an option.
141 lbs. I got mine monday
I have used Vevor tools they always seem to put out a pretty darn good product. Thanks for the info
This one was surprisingly simple to install/setup. I would like to see it last 6 months so I can build a full size garage.
Nice looking. Needs some add on’s for improvement. One, need a tarp or individual cover between the piping and the trap. If it gets hot in your area, the metal frame may heat up and burn the cover. Two, as much I like the bungee cords, zip ties will hold up better. Three, the cover does not appear to be very strong. Four, the stake pins are not strong enough, if you want this to stay in place in the wind. Five, sand bags look nice, no nothing. Buy screw in anchors, I use the one with removal cap and use a drill to place in the ground. Mine is two years old and with stands 75 mph winds. Heavy winds, I remove the top cover.
I have been working with these structures since 2006 and this is the first time I have seen the slope pipes in to 2 pieces. Do you think that increases the support strength or weaken the structure. I have invented a roof support system that can support upto 16" of compact snow and ice. You can put the top on before putting legs on then just tip roof up on one side, put the legs on one side then same thing on other side. I am not sold on split rails and legs. They just do that to save on shipping. Good job
Im adding additional cross members top and sides
This may be a strange question but do you think the frame is strong enough to support putting solar panels on top of the carport with or without the canvas roof?
I have 3 solar arrays with 12 panels each. They are too heavy for this pole design.
Great assembly video! Thanks! Is this the "open type" or "closed type" they mention on the product page? Sorry if I missed it. Pics and info on their page don't show that. But they don't show the rear door either. Thanks for showing that!
I am assuming this is the closed type. Because it has sides.
do you think this would work in a driveway with concrete?
I was surprised by the price, quite a bit cheaper than expected......which probably is the reason it is currently out of stock!!!!! Once the permanent garage is sorted this could become the frame for a rather large shed. Put it on some footings, reinforce it with more of those corner support bars or similar, maybe a few more main support bars, some cheap roofing and siding....and bang, a super cheap 200 sqft shed.......or just pack it up and use as a party tent, as one comment suggested, or whatever when and as required :)
can you open up both the front and back doors to drive right through?
Yes you sure can!
Awesome video! question , the is the tarp thick or thing ?
Has it lasted pretty good so far? I am thinking of buying one for my car and lawn mower.
I've only had this for a couple of months, but so far no issues whatsoever.
How many hours did it take you to build this? Thanks
While filming a little over two hours. A person could build this in a little over one hour by themselves.
Thank you
Could work as a permanent garage?
You think this would be sturdy enough to use as a greenhouse frame? Im worried the wind will brake the frame.
You might want to add some extra supports to make this a more permanent greenhouse structure. It could do the job, but it's a bit flimsy in strong wind.
@@LandtoHouse Thanks. I thought this frame looked more sturdy than the cheap 10x20 amazon greenhouses. And its 3 ft taller in the center. I'm in st. louis and the wind can get crazy here. I think this could work if I reinforce it with some 2x4's
I wonder how it will do with snow this winter.
Yes same! We will find out. Last winter we had a max of 2". But the year before we had a 16" snow.
@@LandtoHouse It wouldn't last a winter here I don't think, 2" is a small snowfall, normally 8-18" drops at least once a week. It would be a 3 season carport for me here, and I'm keeping it in mind for that for that price.....
According to amazon its about 50kg
Hi does it last for a long time?
I have been using this all summer and it is doing well. So far only light snow in the winter.
@@LandtoHouse Thank you! I’m going to buy one just like yours! Thank you for shearing your videos 👍🏻
Box is 130 pounds
141 pounds per the shipping info
you'll need to be careful returning home.. bunch of hill people are likely to sneak in there and have a revival while you're in town..
Well... I might be hill people. Haha
Wish there was a taller one
Meaning the door height? The inside is 10 foot. The door height is only 6 foot.
@@LandtoHouse door height... i have a 10 foot tall van (sprinter)
Oh yes this would not work for that. The sides slope down to 8 foot and the door is short.
Waste of time and money. build something proper
This is a portable garage designed to be temporary. The reason for this is because I am building a film studio this year and next year I will build "something proper ".

@@LandtoHouse It's your life do whatever works for you 🙂
@xperyskop2475 Haha money and time seem to be a limiting factor as well.
I think it’s a really great temporary option. Minimal investment of time and money. I appreciate the unboxing and seeing how you put it together. Thanks too, in regard to discussing the height. I’ve been considering one of these as I don’t want to invest the time or money into a permanent structure, yet. You always do a good job of discussing how things you try work out longer term (even if temporary) so I look forward to seeing how this works out in the end. Good luck on your continuing builds (and sorry about ye old faithful matrix, but glad it’s still finding a useful sunset for you neighbors use.) It’ll do a great job keeping that gorgeous truck protected and maybe save you some frost scraping on cold mornings. Love your channel!
