At the side of our house is a row of eight garages. The back wall of these mark the end of our property. So we have a garage height wall along the side of the garden.
We own the frontmost garage, the others belong to our neighbours. We have a sort of ginnel between the house and the frontmost four. I have flagged this, built a gate across the front and it makes a great place to keep the bins. We have bought the second house on our block and knocked the two together. This means that we have two of each of the bins supplied by the council and eight bins fill the alley space nicely.
I have wanted to cover this space with something similiar to what you have used but never got round to it. What I have done though is cut two of the panels out of my garage end wall and fitted a door. The garage is now a workshop 'cos it is much too small for the 8.
If I ever manage to fit the roof panels they will be fastened to a beam running along the house side wall and then be supported by a framework standing on my flags but not attached to the neighbours garages. The roof will slope downwards toward the garages but will overlap so any rain will run off onto the garage roof.
