Hello,
we want to place our carport, measuring 6 x 9 meters (20 x 30 feet), right on the boundary with the neighbor. In Schleswig-Holstein, this is generally allowed without any application or approval, as long as certain rules are followed. We will have it installed by a reputable company that knows what needs to be considered.
The carport will be set up next to the house, extending 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) towards the garden at the back (for privacy/wind protection, etc.). The idea was to make the last 3.5 meters (11.5 feet) wider than the initial 6 meters (20 feet), partly covering the terrace (see attached drawing). The cross battens in the carport would simply need to be 9 meters (30 feet) long instead of 6 meters (20 feet) for the last 3.5 meters (11.5 feet), and two additional posts would support this extension. The carport manufacturer said this is technically no problem, but he wasn’t sure if it would be permitted. He mentioned that if it were separated, it would definitely be allowed. But what difference does it make whether it’s connected or not?
It’s not a larger covered area either, as the terrace is calculated the same for rainwater drainage (plus, our infiltration system is five times larger than required).
