How about this. Build platforms/frames out of wood (easy to work), put on wheels. Mount solar panels so you can easily adjust the angle. Store them in the garage at night, during storms, while on vacation, etc. Heck, store them until you need them and just charge your battery bank off utility power until the power is out. You could put 1, 2 or 3 panels on each platform. I could build those myself. Depending on how many panels I wanted, I might have to extend my patio or add a deck to I could set them up in the back yard. Would have to get an electrician to wire the battery bank to the utility power and have a selector switch between solar and utility power for battery charging. Each would require different chargers.
All I need is to power my alarm systems (yes, more than one), power some lights, fans, CPAP machines, recharge many types of batteries, run my ham and other radios for gathering news.
