Picture of the drive through is on the right.

19 x 21 through Carolina Carport. Less than 3K invested including retaining wall and gravel. Works for us. Vertical roofing and extra bracing with heavier gauge frame for our snow loads.

That looks very nice and sounds economical.

Question for anyone that has built an RV Port and added lights. Where is the best location - the center top or on the sides?

In a word, yes!

I’d suggest three separate switched light circuits. One on each side snd one along the ridge. Use LED fixtures to save power.

As I get older, I find I need more and more light to do fine work and avoid issues with shadows. Lights in all those places give you even light to clearly see what you are working on.

I have open sides on the rvport that gives ample light on the sides of the trailer. But I did add ample light above. At night, if feels like day.

Here is our Airstream Shelter. It is beside our equipment building.
These are motion lights or can be turned on too with a switch. They are LED.
I made the picture this morning and it is a gray cloudy day here. They came on when I walked by with the dog.
