Need a Metal Garage?

Posted on March 29, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Steel Structures

There is still time for you to place your order before the busy season starts! As you know, there are places where summer can have the perfect weather, a nice breeze, and clear skies without being humid or terribly hot. However, there are certain areas where summer can feel suffocating because of the intense heat. If we suffer from the blazing sun, imagine what our vehicles go through when they’re parked outside our homes, receiving all that heat with no protection whatsoever every day.

 

Parking your vehicle where it is exposed to direct sunlight can be very damaging, as you may know. The intense temperatures in the summer can damage your dashboard and seats as well as your vehicle’s finish and engine. That’s why it’s better to prepare for this summer while there’s still time to order your metal garage. Take this 24’W x 26’L x 9’H metal garage as an example:

 

• Vertical Roof

• Horizontal Sides & Ends

• 30″x30″ Window

• 2 – 36″x72″ Walk-In Doors

• 2 – 9’x7′ Roll-Up Doors

• Mobile Home Anchors

 

 

Parking your vehicle inside a garage to avoid direct sunlight is the easiest way to protect it. If it’s safe to do so, open the windows a crack in order to equalize and lower the air temperature and pressure inside. Remember that we can customize any metal unit per your needs and specifications.

 

We’re here to help you, so give us a call at (866) 730-9865 to speak with one of our sales representatives! Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer! And don’t forget to ask about our available financing options.

4 Things to Consider When Buying a Carport

Posted on March 22, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, News/Press, Questions

Since their initial appearance back in the early 1900’s, carports have had a substantial high demand in the market. Because the industry has grown more complex, consumers have to put more thought into what unit to choose and who they are buying from. From car coverage and protection to workshop areas, the uses of these metal buildings are limitless. However, there are a few things  you should consider before buying a carport, from quality to the work ethic of the business. The process of purchasing a product should run smoothly and be an excellent experience from the sale representatives and the manufacturer to the customer service and installation process. We want you to be satisfied with your decision. That’s why we’ve created a list of important things to consider when buying a carport. Read below for some food for thought.

 

 

Top Factors to Reflect Upon

 

• You must decide if you want to purchase your building from a local or online dealer. Many of our  clients buy our carports from local dealerships where they’re surrounded by one or more of our demo displays, thus giving them a personal glimpse. You can also contact us directly by calling our shops in Texas, Pennsylvania, Illinois, New Mexico, and Indiana, which service more than half the states of the nation.

 

• Take note on what you are looking for. Perhaps you simply need space to park your car or need a larger building to store large capacity vehicles. We offer different roof styles such as an A-Frame Vertical Roof, A-Frame Horizontal Roof, and a standard roof that will better suit your needs and satisfactions. Our knowledged staff can give you suggestions if you have any doubts regarding your choices.

 

• Prior to choosing a carport location, check your local code specifications. It is important to consider your area’s building permit laws: you may need one to have a building on your property. You should also make sure, before installation, that the flooring is prepared ‒ whether it’d be concrete, asphalt, or plain ground. The geographic of your structure location should be leveled.

 

• Consider investing in any additional add-ons. We offer skylights that allow the sun to shine through your structure, dismissing the hassle of electric costs and light installation. Depending on the flooring we also provide concrete, asphalt, or mobile home anchors for extra reinforcement that will maintain your carport secure.

 

 

We aim to keep our clients satisfied before, during, and after installation day. If you order a product from our company, you will receive engineered certified steel structures with free shipping and installation. With these services we include you won’t have to worry about transportation or construction issues. Our buildings will last for years, so we know you need a company who will be there for you and support the product you purchased, and who will stand behind it. This is what sets us different from the rest. Choose your carport manufacturer wisely, choose American Steel Carports, Inc.

There are Endless Ways to Customize your Metal Building

Posted on March 8, 2018 by - ASI, Blog

Whether you’re looking for a simple carport/garage, a warehouse, or a completely custom metal building, American Steel Carports will make the metal structure of your dreams come true! With more than 20 years of service in the carport industry, we know exactly how to give our customers a pleasant experience.

 

Any side of your carport can be customized. Whether you want some extra space between the legs, or to make it taller than 12’, or an additional lean-to, we cover it all!

 

 

Headers:

 

One of the most common customizations is our headers. Headers can increase the spacing in between the legs and function as actual openings. Some of our customers who opt to enclose their metal buildings prefer to have openings instead of actual garage doors.

 

 

 

13’ or taller:

 

Our standard, triple wide, and widespan flyers normally only go up to 12’ tall, but that doesn’t mean we’ll limit ourselves. In fact, the tallest we can go is 20’. We might not build skyscrapers, but we can make your structure tall enough for all your machinery equipment that you want to protect.

 

 

 

Lean-Tos or Connections:

 

When people hear the word “lean-to,” they automatically picture an agricultural barn with lean-tos on each side, which are also called wings. Lean-tos can be added to most of our buildings as additional storage space or as carports for parking your vehicles.

 

 

 

What about if you have two buildings and you just want to connect them? American Steel Carports can connect your buildings as well! Here are a few examples of connected buildings:

 

 

 

Different Pitches:

 

Yes, we offer different angles or pitches for our metal buildings! All of our buildings come with a 3/12 roof pitch, but we can go as low as 2/12 or as high as 8/12 (depending on the unit).

 

If you are considering making any of these customizations, don’t be afraid to let us know. We will work with you until we can make the building you’re looking for. Aside from that, don’t forget that American Steel Carports makes sure that your building is certified by the best engineers. And don’t forget to ask for our financing options!

Live in the North? You’d better watch out for the Snow!

Posted on March 7, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, Promotions

Vertical siding buildings are the most recommended when it comes to states that get a lot of snow. The vertical roof allows natural elements like snow, water, dirt, leaves, and dust to slide off easily without the need for constant maintenance, unlike other roof styles. And if the vertical roof can give you all that, imagine having vertical sides! It would definitely make your metal garage maintenance-free!

 

Another cool feature that we offer is our overhead doors. These doors create more of a residential look, and they can actually be connected to a garage opener. Please keep in mind that American Steel Carports does not offer that type of service: we would only provide the installation of your metal building and the overhead door.

 

This 18’W x 26’L x 10’H metal garage is a perfect example of a fully vertical (a.k.a., maintenance-free) building:

 

• 16’x7′ Overhead door

• 4 – 30″x30″ Windows (2 on the side)

• 36″x80″ Walk-In Door (on the side)

 

 

There are many ways to customize your metal garage! Before making a purchase, though, it’s recommended that all of our customers talk with their local building departments to get the necessary permits. Remember that not all states and counties are the same: some might require additional plans or calculations, while others would take the generic plans. Also, know that our generic plans come free when you place your order with us.

 

Give us a call and let one of our experts help you build that garage of your dreams! Does your area have a higher snow load? Let our experts know, and we’ll work with your requirements until we meet them. Want to see our buildings in person? Call us and ask for your local dealer! And don’t forget to ask about our financing options.

Plenty of Space for Your Toys!

Posted on March 1, 2018 by - ASI, Blog, Customer Builds, News/Press, Steel Structures

There’s still plenty of time to get your metal garage before summer gets in the way! As you know, it’s very important to keep our valuables and vehicles under a roof. If you want them to last a long time, they need to be protected from sun damage and harsh weather.

 

The key to our metal buildings is that we will customize and transform them according to your needs and preferences; not to mention that ALL our buildings are engineer-certified!

 

Although American Steel Carports does not offer any concrete work, furthermore, we will provide concrete anchors to secure your structure—not to mention that you can get our 90-mph wind warranty when you purchase all the anchors needed. Take this 24’W x 51’L x 9’H metal garage as an example:

 

• A-Frame Vertical Roof
• Horizontal Sides & Ends
• 2 – Walk-in Doors (diamond window)
• 4 – 30″x30″ Windows (2 on each end)
• 4 – 10’x8′ Roll-Up Doors (on the side)

 

 

This metal garage has a vertical roof, one of the best roof styles we offer. Besides its pleasant-looking residential style, it allows natural elements such as snow, dirt, water, and leaves to slide off very easily. Also, once a metal building exceeds 30’ in length, we recommend choosing a vertical roof to eliminate the possibility of leaks in the future. Another important fact, is having your roll-up doors on the side can give you plenty of advantages when it comes to this type of building, since it’s cheaper to grow in length than in width.

 

Your metal garage is just one call away! Ask to speak with one of our sales representatives who will help customize your metal building according to your needs. Also, don’t forget to ask about our financing options. Want to see our buildings in person? Ask for your local dealer!
